An axisymmetric finite element model of a body-disc-body unit has been developed and used to study the relative effects of two distinct direction-dependent material representations of the disc annulus on the predicted state of stresses in the disc. The annulus fibrosus is modelled either as nonhomogeneous fibre reinforced composite or alternatively as homogeneous orthotropic with transverse isotropy. In order to have identical states of displacements and hence strains, the unknown properties of the latter model are chosen to be equivalent with those of the former. The fibre slopes of 20°, 30°, and 40° are considered in this study.The stresses in the annulus matrix in the circumferential planes parallel to the fibre layers are predicted to be significantly different depending on the annulus model used. In the nonhomogeneous model, the fibre membranes while under tensile forces, in turn, apply compression to the annulus matrix and, hence, decrease the annulus normal stresses in the above planes. Had the membranes carried compressive forces, a reverse trend would have resulted. The foregoing relative differences are dependent on the fibre orientation, and the magnitude of the tensile forces carried by the fibre layers. The latter also depends, amongst others, on the orientation of the fibres, decreasing as the fibre slope increases from 20° to 30° and 40°. On the basis of the annulus micro-structure and the relative mechanical functions of its components, namely the annulus bulk and the collagenous fibre layers, it appears that nonhomogeneous fibre reinforced composite model of the disc annulus is more realistic resulting in a more accurate computation of stresses in the annulus fibrosus.
