A customized fixation plate with novel structure designed by topological optimization for mandibular angle fracture based on finite element analysis
Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to design a customized fixation plate for mandibular angle fracture using topological optimization based on the biomechanical properties of the two conventional fixation systems, and compare the results of stress, strain and displacement distribution...
