If the hypothesis is acceptable, sensitivity function with respect to the critical growth of thoracic vertebrae on the maximization problem of buckling load with the fourth buckling mode gives us useful information to improve and develop treatments for the idiopathic scoliosis. The numerical results analyzed by the finite element method demonstrated that the sensitivity function is high at the articular capsules of the intervertebral joints, the intervertebral disks, the costotransverse joints and the costovertebral joints around the apex of the curvature in the case of the thoracic idiopathic scoliosis., ・rights:日本機械学会 ・rights:本文データは学協会の許諾に基づきCiNiiから複製したものである ・relation:isVersionOf:http://ci.nii.ac.jp/naid/110004164361/}, pages = {1059--1064}, title = {Study on Treatment with Respect to Idiopathic Scoliosis (Sensitivity Analysis Based on Buckling Theory)}, volume = {44}, year = {2001} }
