Dynamic stiffness and damping of human intervertebral disc using axial oscillatory displacement under a free mass system [PDF]
European Spine Journal, 2003 The aim of this study was to analyse the dynamic response of the human intervertebral disc to vibration in a physiologically relevant frequency spectrum. Eight lumbar intervertebral discs were harvested. After preparation, each sample was subjected to a pre-loading and then dynamic compression (from 5 to 30 Hz).
