Abstract

The design of osteo-synthesis implants is a task in continuous development, where new surgical techniques, manufacturing processes and special materials, allow to obtain more and more precise implants dedicated to each type of fracture. The use of codes and rules of application, associated as a whole with the use of Computational Simulation, whose results are corroborated with laboratory tests, provide the evidence to validate and ensure its effectiveness. This paper presents the computational simulation of a long bone of the lower limb of the human body, the tibia, whose results are compared with those obtained in physical compression tests, carried out by other authors, of a corpse bone of synthetic material.
