ASSESSMENT OF THE TENSION CONDITION THAT OCCURS WHEN THE BODY IS IMMOBILIZED IN A BOSTON-TYPE PLASTIC CORSET

ASSESSMENT OF THE TENSION CONDITION THAT OCCURS WHEN THE BODY IS IMMOBILIZED IN A BOSTON-TYPE PLASTIC CORSET

The paper aims to make a theoretical study - using the finite element method, on the local elastic stresses and deformations that appear in the sagital plane under the use of a Boston corset made of polypropylene.The studies prove the fact that the elastic stress state appearing in the xOy plane in...
