| Abstract | The components that share the loading of motion segment include the facet joint and disc. Nachemson [1] reported the facet joint share 18% of vertical loading in a motion segment; while many other researchers reported the load sharing percentage of facet joint ranges from 1% to 57% [2,3]. The current study developed a unique apparatus using an in vitro porcine spine model to quantify the alteration of loading in the facet joint under impact compressive loading at different loading conditions. A drop tower type impact apparatus was used to produce the impact energy for the motion segment. A 6-D load cell was placed under the specimen to detect the force and moment responses. The pressure sensor was inserted into the facet joint to find the contact force. The pointed axial compresive forces were applied at 8 locations from anterior to posterior of upper vertebrae to mimic different impact loading conditions. The impact energy was fixed at 1.2 J. We found that; when the loading was applied anteriorly, the facet joint sustained very small percentages of the loading; while the location of the loading moved posteriorly, the facet joint sharing percentages increased. The largest sharing percentages of facet joint reached 30% in the current study. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
