Cross-species structure-mechanics prediction in the intervertebral disc

Despite long-standing uncertainty regarding the suitability of animal intervertebral disc (IVD) models for the study of human IVD pathophysiology, few cross-species studies have integrated hierarchical structure with mechanical function. In this study, we present a multiscale structure-mechanics framework combining synchrotron computed tomography (sCT), fibre tracing, digital volume correlation…
