Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRelation 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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect 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 accessIn the abstractSTUDY 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
