Popis: 44th Congress of the Société de Biomécanique, Poitiers, FRANCE, 28-/10/2019 - 30/10/2019; The mechanical phenomena which occur in the subarachnoid space have been studied either from a structural point of view particularly focusing on the spinal cord (SC) or from a fluid point of view focusing on the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow. Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) approaches provide new perspectives to numerically describe the physiological phenomenon. It has been showed that the CSF acts in a passively way on the central nervous system as shock absorber in compressive spinal cord injuries (Fradet et al. 2016). However, we are not aware of any study that provide stress values induced by the active physiological role of the pulsatile CSF flow profile on the spinal cord in 3D. The purpose of this study is to quantify the maximum Von Mises stress generated in the spinal cord induced by an healthy pulsatile flow profile of the CSF.
