Lumbar Disc Degeneration

Three-dimensional non-linear finite element models including the effect of fluid movement in the disc are being built to understand initiation and progression of lumbar disc degeneration under cyclic loading.

Cervical Spine Fusion

Biomechanical effects of fusion in cervical spine under different physiological conditions are studied using three-dimensional non-linear finite element models.

Biomechanics of the Surgically Altered Lumbar Spine

Biomechanical effects of different types of surgical intervention performed on lumbar spine are studied with the help of three-dimensional finite element models.
