… in static lifting tasks, this study aimed to investigate the relative effect of alterations in the
lumbar posture on load partitioning and system stability. Subjects performed different isometric …

A series of experiments showing how posture affects the lumbar spine is reviewed. Postures
which flatten (that is, flex) the lumbar spine are compared with those that preserve the …

… Musculoskeletal simulations of lumbar spine loading rely on a … on lumbar spine loading
utilising five parametrised musculoskeletal lumbar spine models for four different postures. The …

… deformation in the lumbar spine under controlled loading conditions was accomplished for
the … principal components of a lumbar intervertebral joint to two seated postures. The selection …

… Changes in the lumbar lordosis and the posture in general directly influence not only the
loads on the lumbar spine but also the stiffness and stability of the passive tissue. The …

… the lumbar region of the spine is particularly predisposed to musculoskeletal disorders, the
aim of this article was to assess lumbar spine load … an increase in the load force and that they …

… We therefore hypothesize that alterations in the lumbar posture affect not only the overall
segmental loads, but also the relative load sharing between different passive spine individual …

… mechanical load of the lumbar spine caused by changes of posture and carried … spinal
load during trunk flexion in healthy individuals consisted of the theoretical spinal load and load …

… Stable spinal load was increased in asymmetric postures as a result of antagonistic …
Spinal load was computed from the vector sum of muscle forces and external load at the lumbar…

… The purpose of the current study was to assess the biomechanical changes of lumbar spine
during the performance of relatively short duration, sustained trunk bending tasks. Fifteen …
