Finite element analysis of the equivalent stress distribution in Schanz screws during the use of a femoral fracture distractor

ABSTRACT To evaluate the mechanical stress and elastic deformation exercised in the thread/shaft transition of Schanz screws in assemblies with different screw anchorage distances in the entrance to the bone cortex, through the distribution and location of tension in the samples. An analysis of 3D f...
