## Abstract Clinical and experimental studies have shown that several mechanical factors influence the fracture healing process. One such factor, interfragmentary movement, is affected by loading and the stiffness of the fixation device. This study evaluated the stiffness of different external fixa
The progressive ossification pattern in a fracture callus was predicted based on a theory that relates the local stimulus for ossification to the tissue mechanical loading history. Two-dimensional finite element analyses of a fracture callus were considered at three different stages of ossification.
