On the importance of accurate elasto-plastic material properties in simulating plate osteosynthesis failure

Background: Plate osteosynthesis is a widely used technique for bone fracture fixation; however, complications such as plate bending remain a significant clinical concern. A better understanding of the failure mechanisms behind plate osteosynthesis is crucial for improving treatment outcomes. This s...
