    Area of Science:

    • Biomechanics
    • Spinal Anatomy
    • Mathematical Modeling

    Background:

    • Human posture relies on integrated skeletal, ligamentary, and muscular systems.
    • Ligaments stabilize vertebrae against internal pressure, while muscles provide antigravity support and stability.
    • Dynamic balance is achieved through the interplay of ligamentary and muscular forces.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a mathematical model for analyzing spinal deformation.
    • To develop an exact theory for the behavior of the ligamentous spine.
    • To create a universal model applicable to diverse spinal environments.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a mathematical model utilizing directed and oriented curves.
    • Application of the model to analyze the forces governing posture and spinal stability.
    • Formulation of a theoretical framework for ligamentous spinal deformation.

    Main Results:

    • A novel mathematical model for spinal biomechanics has been proposed.
    • The model facilitates the development of an exact theory for ligamentous spine deformation.
    • The proposed theory aims for universality across different spinal conditions.

    Conclusions:

    • The integrated biomechanical system of the spine is crucial for equilibrium.
    • The proposed mathematical model offers a precise approach to understanding spinal dynamics.
    • This theoretical framework has potential applications in various spinal environments.
