Abstract

The elastic analysis of a dynamic compression plate (DCP) used for the forearm bone fracture reduction is presented. For this propose is employed a tool based on the Boundary Element Method (BEM) and an iterative domain decomposition technique with which is possible to develop 3D models and non-homogeneous materials. The numerical results obtained for the analysis has been validated establishing a comparison with an experimental test employing a DCP made of steel 316L with real dimensions. The results demonstrate that it is possible to use the BEM for the osteosynthesis devices design.
