Purpose: Today intramedullary locked nails are widespread in treatment of diaphyseal long bone fractures of the lower limb. However, such nails have a number of drawbacks: complexity and duration of the installation, high axial stiffness, as well as the failure of locking screws and nail body. Expandable nails such as Fixion have several advantages over lockable ones. They can be quickly installed without the need of reaming and provide sufficient stabilization of the fracture. However, many studies show their low stability under torsional loads. Methods: In this paper, geometric characteristics of Fixion nail were investigated. Bone-nail systems (with Fixion and locked nail) under the influence of three types of loads were numerically studied. Two types of diaphyseal femoral fractures (type A and B in accordance with AO/ASIF classification) were examined. Results: It was revealed that Fixion nail provides axial stiffness of 489 N/mm for the fractures studied. Expandable nail showed higher compression at fragments junction than locked nail. Torsional stability of Fixion nail was also high. Corrosion was found on inner surface of Fixion nail. Conclusions: Fixion nail showed high stability under influence of the three loads studied. Corrosion on the internal wall of the nail may indicate its relatively low resistance to saline.

The IR absorption and Raman spectra of NH4IO3_2HIO3 crystal (AIH) were reinvestigated in a wide temperature range (13-300 K), including the phase transition temperature Tc = 213 K. The pressure dependences of the quadrupole coupling constant e2Qqzz and asymmetry parameter of electric field gradient tensor (EFGT) were obtained from the analysis of 127I nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) spectra at 77 K. It was shown that the phase transition of the crystal can be described as an isostructural phase transition with ordering of protons in bifurcated hydrogen bonds and duplication of the unit cell.
