Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSTUDY OF THE INTERFRAGMENTARY STRAIN AND THE INTERFRAGMENTARY MODULUS WITH CHANGING THE DISTANCE BETWEEN PLATE AND FEMURBoonthum WongchaiFor several years the distance between plate and femur has been studied for preventing the damage to the blood supply by the contact pressure between plate and femur. The Limited Contact Dynamics Compression Plate (LC-DCP) is normally used to create the distance by using the locking screws. However, increasing of the distance between plate and femur affects the interfragmentary stain … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 28 Dec 2013 · 6,846 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffect 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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Effect of the Configuration of the Screw Fixation on the Interfragmentary StrainBoonthum WongchaiProblem statement: The interfragmentary strain (εIF) is the important parameter for femur fracture healing. The Dynamic Compression Plate (DCP) is commonly used in femur fracture. The DCP and the fractured femur are fixed by using the conventional screws. Approach: This research is proposed to investigate the effect of configuration of the screw fixation on the interfragmentary stain by using Finite … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 15 Mar 2012 · 7,031 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Effect of the Bone-Plate Whole Spacing on the Interfragmentary StrainBoonthum WongchaiProblem statement: The bone plate is commonly used when human bone fracture occurs. The Inter Fragmentary (IFS) is an important factor for curing human bone fracture and designing the bone plate. The best IFS range from 2-10%.The whole spacing is a factor affecting the IFS that should be taken into account. Approach: This research propose a study on the effect … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 3 Nov 2011 · 6,877 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInterfragmentary 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 PDF Cite
