Strengths for the Awards✨

  1. Innovative Methodology

    • The study integrates musculoskeletal dynamics (AnyBody software) with finite element analysis (Abaqus) to simulate real-world biomechanical conditions, overcoming the limitations of traditional static models.

    • The AnyBody-Abaqus coupling technique provides dynamic loading conditions, capturing muscle forces and joint reactions during elbow flexion/extension, which is rare in orthopedic biomechanics research.

  2. Clinical Relevance

    • Addresses a critical gap in distal humerus fracture management by quantifying “safe activity windows” for postoperative rehabilitation (e.g., ≤80° flexion for parallel plates, ≤30° for vertical plates).

    • Findings directly inform surgical decisions (e.g., plate configuration) and rehabilitation protocols to reduce complications like non-union.

  3. Rigorous Validation

    • Validates muscle forces using electromyography (EMG) literature and mesh convergence studies to ensure computational accuracy (<5% error).

    • Anatomical accuracy is confirmed via statistical shape modeling (SSM) and iterative closest point (ICP) algorithms (<1.2 mm error).

  4. High-Impact Results

    • Demonstrates that parallel plates outperform vertical plates in maintaining interfragmentary motion (IFM) within the healing threshold (0.06–0.20 mm).

    • Identifies stress migration paths in the humerus, correlating with anatomical weak zones (e.g., lateral condyle).

  5. Interdisciplinary Approach

    • Combines orthopedic surgery, biomechanics, and computational modeling, aligning with the trend of “smart orthopedics.”

Education 🎓

  • PhD Candidate in Orthopedics, Graduate School of Medical School of Chinese PLA Hospital, Beijing (Current).
