RISResidual Strain and Joint Pressurization Maintain Collagen Tension for On-Joint Lumbar Facet Capsular Ligaments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Modeling the lumbar facet capsular ligament's (FCL) mechanical behavior under various physiological motions has often been a challenge due to limited knowledge about the on-joint in situ ligament state arising from attachment ...
The Lumbar Facet Capsular Ligament Becomes More Anisotropic and the Fibers Become Stiffer With Intervertebral Disc and Facet Joint Degeneration
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Degeneration of the lumbar spine, and especially how that degeneration may lead to pain, remains poorly understood. In particular, the mechanics of the facet capsular ligament may contribute to low back pain, but the ...
In Situ Lumbar Facet Capsular Ligament Strains Due to Joint Pressure and Residual Strain
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The lumbar facet capsular ligament, which surrounds and limits the motion of each facet joint in the lumbar spine, has been recognized as being mechanically significant and has been the subject of multiple mechanical ...
