Developing a 3D Multi-Body Model of the Scoliotic Spine with Lateral Bending Motion for Comparison of Ribcage Flexibility

In this paper, a fully discretized bio-fidelity simulation model for bio-mechanical (kinematic) analysis of scoliosis for various patients was developed to analyze forces on vertebrae, loads acting on the intervertebral disc, corresponding angles between vertebrae, and tension in the spine muscles d...
