Computational simulation of the intervertebral disc [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The intervertebral disc is a complex structure unlike any other in the human body. The capability to withstand high loads and deformations in six degrees of freedom is facilitated by the unique soft tissue structures. However, the mechanical behaviour of
