The author would like to acknowledge the contribution of Dave Andrews, Ph.D. and Wayne Albert,
Ph.D., who have collaborated and shared their ideas on cumulative loading. Much of the work presented
here would not have been possible without a very dedicated group of graduate students: Diana Sullivan,
M.Sc., Kiera Keown, M.Sc. and Jennie Jackson, M.Sc. who was instrumental in the development of
3DMatch. Jack Callaghan, Robert Parkinson, M.Sc. a Canada Research Chair in Spine Biomechanics
and Injury Prevention.
