Investigation of load transfer process between external fixator and bone model by experimental and finite element methods
Introduction: Unilateral external fixators are widely used in orthopedics to stabilize fractured bones and to treat limb deformities. One of the main problems is that it is difficult to detect healing status. In addition, whether load transfer progress between the fixator and bone model are the same...
