 abstract={In the past decades, Mg alloys have been studied intensively as potential orthopedic applications. The present research work, the FEA of the obtained contact stresses in the case of the load applied on Mg-0.5Ca-xMn alloys has been investigated. It has been used the NCB Curved Femur Shaft Plate type as a model in order to establish the necessary modeling parameters. The objective of the present work was to highlight the strain values at the contact point on the surface of the Mg-0.5Ca-xMn alloys. The results showed that the highest stresses observed near the gaps of the plate and in the screws. It means that all mechanical loads are sustained by the plate and screws, and the patient’s femur can be recovered.},
