6 caudal osteodiscs from 2 bovine spines
specimen numbers 1-4 are the 4 most proximal caudal discs of one spine, 5-6 are the 2 most proximal caudal discs of the other spine

For each sample (named OD[1-6]), data consists of:

A. RAW EXPERIMENTAL DATA for each sample (set of 6 folders and 1 file assembled in 1 archive OD[1-6]_rawExp.zip)
* DICOM files of microCT scan  - unloaded: OD[1-6]_CT_init
* DICOM files of microCT scan  - for 4 step loads: OD[1-6]_CT_loaded_[1-4]
* DICOM files of MRI scan - unloaded: OD[1-6]_MR_init
* load raw data (csv file): OD[1-6]_load.csv

B. PROCESSED EXPERIMENTAL DATA
* 1 summary file OD_summary.csv with
  - max load vs applied displacement data
  - geometrical measurements
* experimental bulge values at each displacement step: OD_bulge.csv

C. COMPUTATIONAL DATA (all run with Abaqus 2017)
* FE input files for all specimens and all model types (in a .zip archive: OD_FEinputs.zip):
  - OD[1-6]_standard.inp: the standard ratio cylindrical models [std. cyl. model]
  - OD[1-6]_VFIT.inp: the cylindrical models with nucleus volume from MRI [fitted cyl. model]
  - OD[1-6]_MRI.inp: the models with NP geometry from MRI [MR model]
* outcomes of calibration: 1 summary file containing all values of the calibrated parameters and objective function: optimisationOutputs.csv
* FE output files:
  - bulge values at each time step for all models: OD[1-6]_[model_type]_bulge_[1-3].csv; in a .zip archive: FE_bulge_[calibrated or average].zip
  - force values at each time step for all models: OD[1-6]_[model_type]_force_[1-3].csv; in a .zip archive: FE_force_[calibrated or average].zip
