title: [The normalization creep functions of C5.6,T6.7,L4.5 interverbral discs of human vertebral column].
abstract: In this paper are reported the creep experimental studies on 9 fresh C5.6 intervertebral discs,9 fresh T6.7 intervertebral discs and 10 L4.5 intervertebral discs that were taken from the bodies of ten men(aged 19-35 years) who had died of head injury 1-4 h before. By simulating the temperature of human body (36.5 degrees C +/- 0.5 degree C) and putting 300 N load on the discs, we measured the intervertebral creep effects and obtained the strain-time curves.
