Finite element investigation of mechanism of stress on neck of two different stages after physiotherapy

In current study, a detailed two-dimensional of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) model of the cervical vertebra (neck) is generated based on 2 X-ray samples. Physical therapy was implemented on the cervical spine over a certain period of time to restore the optimal curvature of the neck. X-ray images o...
