Validation efforts and flexibilities of an eight-year-old human juvenile lumbar spine using a three-dimensional finite element model.

The objective of this study was to develop a finite element model of the lumbar spinal column of an eight-year-old human spine and compare flexibilities under pure moments, adult, and pediatric loading with different material models. The geometry was extracted from computed tomography scans. The mod...
