Linear System Analyses of the Role of Reflex Gain and Delay in a Dynamic Human Spine Model
Measurement studies have linked paraspinal muscle reflexes to low back pain. However, the role of reflexes in stabilizing the spine is not clear. Previous studies enlisted biomechanical models to aid in understanding of how intrinsic stiffness stabilizes the spine. This work expands these previou...
