Development and validation of a statistical shape modeling-based finite element model of the cervical spine under low level multiple direction loading conditions
Cervical spinal injuries are a significant concern in all trauma injuries. Recent military conflicts have demonstrated the substantial risk of spinal injury for the modern warfighter. Finite element models used to investigate injury mechanisms often fail to examine the effects of variation in geome...
