T12 Load Cell (Lumbar Spine)
Fig. 16: Overview of spine to sacrum with T12 load cell
Figure 16 shows the T12 area. The upper rigid beam is merged to the spine and the lower rigid beam is merged to the lumbar spine adaptor plate. A discrete beam is located between the rigid beams to determine the T12 forces and moments. The local directions are shown in the table below:
