Computational optimisation of screw orientations for improved locking plate fixation of proximal humerus fractures

Computational optimisation of screw orientations for improved locking plate fixation of proximal humerus fractures

Background: The implant-related failure risks of proximal humerus plates remain high, and therefore, improved solutions are needed. Systematic and efficient computational analyses can assist design optimisation of implant systems and may help reduce complication rates. Methods: A previously develope...
