Numerical Stress Analysis of the Plates Used to Treat the Tibia Bone Fracture

The 5th ENGII Conference(Workshop5 2014)——The tibia is the major bone of the lower leg, commonly referred to as the shin bone. Tibia fractures can occur from many types of injuries. Tibia fractures come in different shapes and sizes, and each fracture must be treated with individual factors taken into account. In general, tibia fractures can be separated into three categories based on the location of the fracture. Tibial shaft fractures, tibial plateau fractures and tibial plafond fractures. Tibial shaft fractures are common injuries that can occur after falls, car accidents, sports injuries, and other activities. A tibial shaft fracture can be treated by several methods depending on the type of fracture and alignment of the bone. The most common treatments include; casting, intramedullary (IM) rodding, external fixator and finally plates and screws.
