Abstract

A new dynamic element is introduced to model the motion of the spine. This element will allow easily modeling of the flexion, extension and bending motions of human spine with a minimum number of degrees of freedom. In this paper, we present the equations of the new element and the imposed constraint to guarantee a realistic spinal motion.
