An Experimentally Validated Model for the Ilizarov Fixator Considering the Loss of Wire’s Pretension

The purpose of this study is to assess the biomechanical performance of the Ilizarov fixator and to attempt optimization of its configuration. Attention is focused to the quantification of the wires’ pretension loss. The study is implemented according to a combined experimental and numerical scheme:...
