The bipedal standing mouse model and von Mises stress distribution on the surface of SAPs in LFJ.(a)The mice were placed in a beaker with or without limited water to induce the bipedal standing posture. (b) The 3D image of micro-CT scanning of the spine. (c)The finite element stimulation model of SAPs. (d) The von Mises stress distribution on the surface of SAPs during different positions and (e) quantitative analysis data. The data are presented as the . for differences between the control group and the bipedal standing group. .
