Finite element simulation of daily activities held by the intervertebral disc

The spine is a complex system, capable of maintaining stability and simultaneously performing movements and the lumbar region is fundamental for this ability. The present work aims to validate a Finite Elements (FE) model of a lumbar motion segment, through numerical simulation of the required mobil...
