The effect of dimensions on the safety factor, allowable stress, and deformation of the lumbar disc prosthesis model at L4-L5 was investigated. The process involved geometry design, meshing, enhancement in element quality, and setting of boundary conditions using SolidWorks and ANSYS software. The r...
