Stability of different fixation methods after reduction malarplasty under average and maximum masticatory forces: a finite element analysis

Table 4 Materials properties used in FEA

1 GPa (Gigapascal) = 1000 MPa (Pa is the Pascal unit equating to Newton/m²)
*Elastic modulus: is the ratio of the stress and strain of an object undergoing elastic deformation
**Poisson’s ratio: represents the ability of a structure to resist deformation in a direction perpendicular to that of the applied load
