Inverstigations on Fatigue Properties of Meshed Gum Metal Plates for Bone Graft Applications

Abstract eng:
Meshed titanium plates for bone graft applications have improved with excellent three dimensional flexibility, lower elastic modulus and higher strength in previous studies. In this study, mesh structure application on gum metal plates with high biocompatibility was carried out and the fatigue properties of such meshed gum metal plates were investigated through experimental and analytical approach for bone graft applications like the intervertebral disc defections. Based on two kind of designed mesh shape, sample meshed gum metal plates were made by laser cutting process for experimental and analytical approaches on the fatigue property evaluations and the results are reported here.
