Abstract

A biodynamic model of the spine simulated the action of spinal musculature on the head, vertebral bodies and pelvis in the midsagittal plane. Muscle was treated as a force generator whose contractile force was dependant on muscle stretch, stretch rate and neural delay time. The model predicted that spinal musculator was incapable of affecting overall spinal column kinematics.
