摘要:
In this study we calculate theoretically and use FEM to simulate the effect of plate position relative to bending direction on the overall bending stiffness of the composite system plate-bone. The results show that for different bending directions the effect of the modulus of elasticity of the plate is negligible. Changing the position of a plate will often alter the stress obviously. During the operation, the steel plate should be assigned onto the tension side of the bone.
