Swelling-induced strain was highly heterogeneous in AF rings, where negative circumferential strains were observed in the inner AF and tensile circumferential strains were observed in the outer AF. Radial strains in AF rings were an order of magnitude greater than circumferential strains. Restricting fluid flow only to the outer AF periphery reduced the swelling of the inner AF. Swelling of intact discs affected both NP and AF swelling behaviors, where NP hydration decreased by 60%. Furthermore, the presence of the NP reduced peak ra
