Abstract:This work discusses a comparative experimental investigation into specimens mimicking healthy humerus bones and fractured bones subject to an innovative surgery procedure and to a classical technique defined as the gold standard surgery. The new surgery technique consists in the installation of an external fixation mechanism (fixator) that constrains in defined positions a certain number of titanium slender bars inserted and clamped to the fractured bones according to different spatial patterns. The mechanical… Show more
