Construction and validation under dynamic conditions of a novel thoracolumbar spine model with defined muscle paths using the wrapping method

We developed novel trunk musculoskeletal models with detailed muscle paths for predicting the thoracolumbar load, and validated the developed models under dynamic loading and various postures. Two types of musculoskeletal models with different paths of the trunk muscles were constructed: a Via-Point...
