Numerical Simulation of the Posterior Malleolus Fracture with the Finite Element Method

The high demand for biodegradable implants in bone fracture fixations has dramatically increased the use of polymers for biomedical applications as well. However, the replacement of stainless steel and titanium screws by biodegradable materials represents one of the most critical aspects of biomecha...
