    Abstract
    Suffering a spinal cord injury (SCI) can be physically, emotionally, and financially devastating. With the complex loading environment typically seen in SCI events, finite element (FE) computational models provide an important economical and ethical option for investigating the mechanical etiology of SCI, evaluating prevention techniques, and assessing clinical treatments. To this end, numerous research groups have developed FE models of the spinal cord using various degrees of material and structural sophistication. However, the level of model complexity that is necessary to achieve accurate ...
