最,有限元素(FE ) 建模的以前的颈的脊骨被验证从文学在 vitro 死尸测量数据使用。尽管在 vitro 测量能为模型确认提供珍贵数据,在里面机械的 vivo 和颈的脊骨的生理的条件不能在 vitro 在它的自然运动期间被复制。在这研究,颅骨(C0 ) 和针的 vertebrae (C1T1 ) 的一个人的 FE 模型被开发。在里面 vivo 头和颈的运动学的特征从 optoelectronic 系统被获得,并且为 FE 模型的确认使用了。模拟结果在左 / 权利的侧面的弯曲和左 / 权利的轴的旋转与测量数据显示出好同意,当差异在屈曲期间存在时。预言部分颈的脊椎的角度对数据被比较从以前的在里面 vivo 实验也。而且,从以前的学习的皮肤移动数据被用来侧面的弯曲在屈曲和左 / 权利期间补偿试验性的测量。结果证明模型成功地被验证与在里面 vivo 试验性的数据。
Most previous cervical spine finite element (FE) models were validated using in vitro cadaver mea- surement data from literatures. Although in vitro mea- surement can provide valuable data for model verification, the in vivo mechanical and physiological conditions of the cervical spine during its natural motions cannot be reproduced in vitro. In this study, a human FE model of skull (CO) and spinal vertebrae (C1-T1) was developed. The in vivo kinematic characteristics of head and neck were obtained from optoelectronic system, and used for the validation of the FE model. The simulation resu]ts showed good agreement with the measured data in left/right lateral bending and left/right axial rotation, while discrepancy existed during flexion. The predicted segmental cervical vertebral angles were compared against data from previous in vivo experiment, too. Furthermore, the skin shift data from previous study was used to compensate the experimental measurement during flexion and left/right lateral bending. The results showed the model was successfully validated with the in vivo experimental data.
