Mechanical environment

Considering the structure of the bone mechanical environment, it can be differentiate an external from an internal mechanical environment. The External one is connected with the environment of the human body which gives high load impulses (forces, moments, etc.) that are shaping the inter- nal environment. Loads are transmitted from the External by the fixator frame trough the bone screws to the Internal environment The ad- hesion zone can be in this way partially or fully relieved according to the mechanical profile of the fixator and its dump and carry loads ability.

The Internal one is directly connected with the closest surroundings of the adhesion zone and in this way this environment is shaping the future adhe-sion’s mechanical profile. As common known the micro movements at the bone fracture can stimulate the growth process . People should
carry to shape these micro movements (range and loads) properly to as- sure that the adhesion growth and remodelling process goes in right way.

In order to the time changeable mechanical loads that occurs in the bone fracture, the mechanical profile of the fixator frame should change its me- chanical configuration. Tracking the occurred loads can be very helpful in the individual healing patient profile building process. Each information can be used in two ways. First of them is connected with the active me- chanical crack zone securing. According to the occurring forces fixator should reconfigure itself and affect the proper shape in secure way

The second one can be use in active bone stimulation proces, in which has
to be firstly created the right bone loads and unloads profile. Only secure stimulation can properly accelerate the biological processes without any
mistaken that can not be successfully retrieved in the future.
