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.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scoliosis is a musculoskeletal abnormality causing complex three dimensional curvatures in the spine. Current surgical treatments for this adolescent spinal deformity are successful but invasive. Potential new treatments that are less invasive are being developed based on altering growth by mechanically redistributing stresses across the vertebral growth plates. In the literature, in vivo and in vitro tests have shown biomechanical changes in the disc and growth plates due to insertion of staple like implants used in these new methods. In order to understand the biomechanics behind these potential new methods, a nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA) is performed and various biomechanical properties of the spinal segment with and without the implant are determinedA three-dimensional FE model of T7-T8 motion segment was developed from a CT scan of a porcine spine and imported to ABAQUS (an FEA software). Various material properties and contact interactions were used from the literature in determining the model that best predicted the available experimental load-displacement curve and the compressive properties of the disc. Bending loads were applied to this FE model to determine the reduction in the motion of the spinal segment. Sensitivity of the implant features were examined against the compressive properties of the disc. Mechanobiological growth models have been partially developed to study various biomechanical factors causing deformities in spine. This available model was utilized in understanding how growth in a normal spine could be influenced due to the presence of these implants.
