Nonlinear Buckling Analysis for Etiological Study of Idiopathic Scoliosis

This paper investigated buckling phenomena of the spine induced by the growth of vertebral bodies that have potential to cause idiopathic scoliosis. In the previous study, we presented a hypothesis that idiopathic scoliosis is a buckling phenomena induced by the growth of vertebral bodies based on t...
