This study is aimed to determine the impact support of the spine motion segments on mechanical properties of the intervertebral disc (IVD). In the simulations, the combinations of flexion-extension movements in spine motion segments were modeled. The analysis of the mechanics of the intervertebral disc clearly indicates a wide differentiation between anterior/posterior anatomical locations in the annulus fibrosus.
