Simulation of bovine disc joint under axial compression followed by ± 5o axial rotation. Disc height increases during rotation
Cross sectional view of circumferential stresses during axial rotation
Sagittal-plane cross-section view of a disc model, which consists Bone, Nucleus Pulposus (NP), Annulus Fibrosus (AF), Cartilage Endplate (CEP)
Circumferential stress for disc rotation in the clockwise (CW) and counter-clockwise (CCW) direction (under 0.48 MPa pre-compression)
