Biomechanical Analysis Using FEA and Experiments of Metal Plate and Bone Strut Repair of a Femur Midshaft Segmental Defect
Table 1
FEA Von Mises peak surface stresses for a 3 kN axial force for all components of Cases 1 to 9. The location of each peak stress occurred at a particular screw or screw hole “level”.
