Abstract
- The material properties and volume proportion of the fibers as well as the cross-sectional area proportion of nucleus pulposus vary greatly in different studies. The effect of these factors on the mechanical behavior of intervertebral discs (IVDs) are uncertain. The IVDs finite element models with different parameters were created to investigate the pressure, height, rotation, stress, and strain of the IVDs under loads: pure compression, rotation after compression or axial moment after compression. The results showed that the material properties of fibers had great impact on the mechanical behavior of IVDs, especially on the rotation angle. When the fiber volume ratio was small, its changes had a significant impact on the rotation angle of the IVDs. The area proportions of nucleus pulposus had relatively little effect on the mechanical behavior of IVDs. The IVDs rotation should be observed when validating the model. By adjusting the elastic modulus or volume ratio of fibers within a reasonable range, a model that could simulate the mechanical behavior of normal IVDs could be obtained. It was reasonable to make the area proportion of nucleus pulposus within 25%-50% for the IVDs finite element model. This study provides guidance and reference for finite element modeling of the IVDs and the investigation of the IVDs degeneration mechanism.
