Large Residual Strains are Present in the Intervertebral Disc Annulus Fibrosus in the Unloaded State

The intervertebral disc annulus fibrosus (AF) is subjected to high circumferential tensile stresses resulting from nucleus pulposus pressurization under axial compression. In other pressure containing tissues, such as blood vessel walls, residual compressive stresses along the inside surface of the...
