The displacement state of the posterior annulus in the intervertebral disc under flexion [PDF]
Biomedical Research, 2018 The occurrence of lumbar disc herniation is closely related to the mechanical state, and it is necessary to study the internal mechanical behavior of the intervertebral disc under different loading conditions. In this study, the unconfined experiments were conducted by applying an optimized Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique, and the internal ...
