Three-dimensional simulation of the lumbar spine under lumbar spinal stenosis with different sizes of spinal canal

Partial Differential Equations in Applied Mathematics
In this paper, we investigate the effect of body weight on the lumbar spine with different spinal canal sizes when humans bend down by using the finite element method. Lumbar spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the spinal canal.
