Giraffes and hominins: reductionist model predictions of compressive loads at the spine base for erect exponents of the animal kingdom

In humans, compressive stress on intervertebral discs is commonly deployed as a measurand for assessing the loads that act within the spine. Examining this physical quantity is crucially beneficial: the intradiscal pressure can be directly measured in vivo in humans, and is immediately related to co...
