Simulation of the Effect of Flexible and Rigid Plate Designs on Murine Fracture Healing
Although several histological studies in mice have examined healing of fractures secured with bone plates, no data are available at present on the mechanical response of fractured bone or callus tissue. Here, we simulated the healing response of fractures secured with rigid and flexible bone plate-d...
