Self-Drilling Versus Self-Tapping Screws: A 3D Finite Element Analysis. [PDF]
Study Design: Self-tapping and self-drilling screws are two modalities available for plate fixation. When compared to self-drilling, self-tapping screws have a few drawbacks like screw loosening, thermal osteolysis, equipment dependent, and time-consuming.

BOLTED TIMBER JOINTS WITH SELF-TAPPING SCREWS
The use of self-tapping screws with continuous threads in the joint area as a reinforcement to avoid splitting of timber members is studied. A theoretical model is developed to calculate the stress distribution around a pin-loaded hole in a timber joint,
