Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStress Prediction in the Dynamic Compression Plate with Changing the Configuration of the Screw FixationBoonthum WongchaiProblem statement: Human femur fracture is one of the most frequent type of bone fractures. One of the widely used methods in an internal fixation is an application of the Dynamic Compression Plate (DCP). The configuration of the screw fixation plays a major role of the DCP stress. Approach: This research is proposed to investigate the stress distribution in the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterface Micromotion of Cementless Hip Stems in Simulated Hip ArthroplastyMohammed Rafiq Abdul Kadir, Nazri KamsahProblem statement: The design of hip prostheses has evolved over time due to various complications found after hip replacement surgery. The currently commercially available cementless femoral stems can be categorized into one of three major types, straight cylindrical, tapered rectangular and anatomical. Each type proposes a unique concept to achieve primary stability-a major requirement for bone healing process. Virtual analyses … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,321 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordRelation of Plate Strain and Distance Between Plate and BoneBoonthum WongchaiThe Limited Contact Dynamics Compression Plate (LC-DCP) is normally used in bone fractured with the locking screws. The released distance between the LC-DCP and the bone could bring about the convenience of periosteal blood transportation. However the exceeding distance may cause the plate strain reach yield point and make the LC-DCP deform into plastic zone. This research proposes a study … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 5 Oct 2013 · 6,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of the Screw Torque Level on the Interfragmentary Strain and the Interfragmentary ModulusBoonthum WongchaiThe screw torque is applied at the screw head to fix the plate and the bone. It generates the compressive force between the plate and the bone to stabilize them. The interfragmentary strain is the main factor for healing the bone fractured. The screw torque level affects the interfragmentary strain and the stability of the fixation between the plates an … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 24 Jul 2013 · 6,469 accessesView PDFCite
