FIGURE 4

Fluid velocity in the NP, nearby the CEP (see Fig. 1), calculated through the 2D model by using a cartilage endplate (CEP) model with homogenized composition (blue line) and a CEP model with a gradient of composition (red line). The zoom area shows the attenuation of the fluid velocity by the composition gradient with sudden load changes.
