Failure Analysis of a Humeral Shaft Locking Compression Plate—Surface Investigation and Simulation by Finite Element Method

Abstract: A case study of a failed humeral shaft locking compression plate is presented, starting with a clinical case where failure occurred and an implant replacement was required. This study uses finite element method (FEM) in order to determine the failure modes for the clinical case. Four loading scenarios that simulate daily life activities were considered for determining the stress distribution in a humeral shaft locking compression plate (LCP). Referring to the simulation results, the failure analysis was perfor… Show more

“…The methods elected to be used in this study were microscopic examination, scanning electron microscopic examination and dye penetration. The examination at the optic microscope, as well as, dye penetration is the most notorious methods because they are easy to handle [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40].…”

“…This study design was a short-term study, although the orthodontic treatment period is a long-term treatment, for at least two years. Further research must be done in order to establish the adequate composition for oral hygiene products, capable to limit the unfavourable effect of demineralization on enamel structure and colour [40,41,42].…”

“…Using the relations from equation (1) in equation (2) the equivalent spring constant can be determined using equation (3) and simplifying the force yields equation (4). The total elongation of the assembly is dictated by individual characteristics of the components and the spring with lowest mechanical characteristics is to deform strongest [14][15][16]. The local deformations of the tensile test samples were studied by tracing a grid before testing and measuring the local deformations for each part.…”
