Off‐axis response due to mechanical coupling across all six degrees of freedom in the human disc

The kinematics of the intervertebral disc are defined by six degrees of freedom (DOF): three translations (Tz: axial compression, Tx: lateral shear, and Ty: anterior‐posterior shear) and three rotations (Rz: torsion, Rx: flexion‐extension, and Ry: lateral bending). There is some evidence that the si...
