Abstract: Biomedical properties of Metal Plate fixators and Composite fixators were carries out. Fatigue of the metal and composite materials were carried out, Dynamic mechanical analysis, Shear strength and tensile strength of the composite materials were also carried out. Finite element analysis of the plate fixator was carried out it. The results shows metal fixators are rigid and their strength is more than the bone, whereas composite materials can be tailor made to the need. Delamination occurs in composite materials.

Keywords: FEA, Biomechanical, SIFC.
