Sensitivity of Intervertebral Disc Finite Element Models to Internal Geometric and Non-geometric Parameters

Finite element models are useful for investigating internal intervertebral disc (IVD) behaviours without using disruptive experimental techniques. Simplified geometries are commonly used to reduce computational time or because internal geometries cannot be acquired from CT scans. This study aimed to...
