Abstract
- Composites are found to be potential candidates for future bone implant materials.
- 25% shorter and 70% lighter composite plates are proposed, in comparison to metals.
- A fractured ulnar model is created which agrees well with experimental data.
- Screw positions significantly affect the construct stiffness upto a factor of 2.
