This book was released on 2007 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of the research was to develop a three-dimensional finite element model to study the biomechanical and kinematic characteristics of the human lumbar spine in flexion. An analytical model of the lumbar spine capable of taking into consideration the actual geometry, non-linear material properties and realistic loading would be of benefit in studying normal biomechanics, as well as in-vivo behavior in injured and surgically altered spines. Fundamental to this approach is an accurate model of the spine. This was achieved by modeling the lumbar segments L2-L4 from Computed Tomography (CT) data and analyzing them under loading conditions that best approximated the human lumbar segments in flexion. An in-vitro study was performed for validation of the finite element model. Human lumbar cadaveric spinal segments (L2-L4) were loaded based on test conditions similar to those defined in the finite element analysis. The results of the cadaver biomechanical study and finite element analysis were compared. The results suggest that the model is a valid approach to assessing the range of motion of the L3 segment under flexion. Rotation under lateral bending moments was additionally investigated to provide a thorough validation of the model.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To achieve a new method for predicting the result of disc replacement or to predict biomechanics of lumbar (or any other skeletal segment) by finite element model analysis, its necessary to follow an organized procedure including 3D bone model, meshing the proposed model, designing an artificial implant and simulation of loading condition. In this study we try to explain the whole procedure step by step from importing the CT image to analysis of lumbar section with designed implant. First it's explained how the 3D model can be made based on the CT image using MIMICS software and some details related to simulation of the skeletal model by this software will be released. Second part shows the tutorial method for importing proposed model in ABAQUS software and how it can be analyzed. This step by step tutorial is helpful in lumbar biomechanics and creating human body skeletal model. Also it is useful to achieve a perfect procedure for creating and analyzing lumbar disc implant.
Download or read book A Three dimensional EMG assisted Push pull Model for Assessing Dynamic Loads on Each Level of the Lumbar Spine written by Gregory George Knapik and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overall goal of this research was to develop a three-dimensional, EMG-assisted model for assessing dynamic loads at each level of the lumbar spine during mobile pushing and pulling exertions like those typically seen in industrial work. This model was then used to examine the calculated model performance measures and the spinal loads developed during actual pushing and pulling tasks across a range of handle heights, hand force levels, and handle degrees of freedom by both male and female subjects. The makeup of industrial work has recently changed, favoring pushing and pulling with carts and other material handling devices instead of lifting. Accordingly, pushing and pulling are now extremely prevalent in industry. In pushing and pulling, the majority of the force requirement is in the horizontal, rather than vertical direction. While the magnitude of the force is typically smaller than in lifting, the horizontal direction of the force results in the application of greater shear forces on the spine in pushing and pulling. The few studies that have examined shear forces have reported that the spine has a smaller tolerance to shear forces than compressive forces. As a result, even though smaller magnitude forces are imposed on the spine than in lifting, there is still a possibility of injury in pushing and pulling due to the lower tolerance level.

This book was released on 2014-11-26 with total page 929 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first atlas to depict in high-resolution images the fine structure of the spinal canal, the nervous plexuses, and the peripheral nerves in relation to clinical practice. The Atlas of Functional Anatomy for Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine contains more than 1500 images of unsurpassed quality, most of which have never been published, including scanning electron microscopy images of neuronal ultrastructures, macroscopic sectional anatomy, and three-dimensional images reconstructed from patient imaging studies. Each chapter begins with a short introduction on the covered subject but then allows the images to embody the rest of the work; detailed text accompanies figures to guide readers through anatomy, providing evidence-based, clinically relevant information. Beyond clinically relevant anatomy, the book features regional anesthesia equipment (needles, catheters, surgical gloves) and overview of some cutting edge research instruments (e.g. scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy). Of interest to regional anesthesiologists, interventional pain physicians, and surgeons, this compendium is meant to complement texts that do not have this type of graphic material in the subjects of regional anesthesia, interventional pain management, and surgical techniques of the spine or peripheral nerves.
