Abstract
Previous investigations into the optimisation of internal plates have mostly focused on the material properties of the implant. In this work, we optimise the shape, size and placement of the plate for successfully minimising bone remodelling around the implant. A design optimisation algorithm based on strain energy density criterion, combined with the finite element analysis, has been used in this study. The main optimisation goal was to reduce this change and keep it close to the conditions of an intact femur. The results suggest that the anterolateral side of the bone would be the optimum location for the plate, as for the geometry, the optimum moves towards having a thick, wide and short plate. These important results could be directly applicable to orthopaedic surgeons treating a femur fracture with internal plates. Since the optimisation algorithm remains the same for any patient, this advancement provides the surgeon with a tool to minimise the post surgery remodelling by trying to maintain the natural structure of the bone.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
