Abstract :
The present paper, based on a bio-engineering application, intends to apply the mathematical model in the treatment and diagnosis of tibial plateau fractures. Therefore, we focused on the method of finite elements (MFE), which is the general method of solving differential equations with partial derivates that describe physical phenomena. The thus carried out mathematical simulation has revealed the different types of fracture as well as the durability of given mountings, outlining both their advantages and disadvantages.
