The effect of bending stiffness of external fixators on the early healing of transverse tibial osteotomies was studied in a canine model to determine whether there is a particular range of fixation stiffness where healing is poor. Five unilateral fixators with different stiffnesses were developed an
In this research the cross-sectional profile of flattened wires after flat rolling are calculated for different reductions. The empirical formulation, analytical formulation and numerical method have been used to predict the cross-sectional profile. Also, the theoretical results are compared with th
