Existence of buckling phenomena as a pathogenic mechanism of idiopathic scoliosis

The present paper presents the numerical results of a finite-element analysis of the role of a linear buckling phenomena in the etiology of idiopathic scoliosis. In a previous study, we assumed that idiopathic scoliosis is a buckling phenomenon induced by the growth of vertebral bodies, and we used...
