Analysis of the influence of disc degeneration on the mechanical behaviour of a lumbar motion segment using the finite element method.

TL;DR: Three-dimensional, nonlinear finite element model of the L3/L4 functional unit was used to study the influence of disc degeneration on motion segment mechanics and found that a mildly degenerated disc increases intersegmental rotation for all loading cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of a new calibration method for a three-dimensional finite element model of a human lumbar annulus fibrosus.

TL;DR: A method was developed for calibrating the two-composite structure of the annulus fibrosus, the ground substance and collagen fibers to fulfil the required range of motion obtained from in vitro results within an accuracy of 99%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of a calibration method provides more realistic results for a finite element model of a lumbar spinal segment.

TL;DR: Predictability and accuracy of the calibrated and non-calibrated finite element model of a lumbar spinal segment for different clinical defects were evaluated and compared.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stepwise reduction of functional spinal structures increase range of motion and change lordosis angle.

TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to quantify the function of anatomical components on lumbar segments for different loading magnitudes and to start a calibration procedure for models with the smallest functional structure (annulus) and to cumulatively add further structures.
