Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordInterfragmentary ModulusBoonthum WongchaiProblem statement: Young’s modulus and interfragmentary strain (εIF) are the important parameters in bone-plate testing and design. But Young’s modulus is not suitable when we use with εIF in the bone-plate testing. Approach: This research proposed a study on the Interfragmentary Modulus (IM) as the new parameter for the bone-plate testing. Results: The results from the FEM show that the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 26 Jan 2012 · 7,073 accessesView PDFCite
