B6-057 Kinesiology Flashcards
what kind of connective tissue makes up ligaments, tendons, and joint capsule?
dense fibrous connective
what region of the stress-strain curve results in damage to the tissue?
plastic region
what is the optimal stimulus for bone regeneration?
loading along the axis of the bone
**returning to weight bearing is crucial to recovery
cartilage is avascular, how does is receive nutrition?
through compression and decompression of the joint surfaces
**necessary for regeneration
what is optimal stimulus for tendon/ligament healing?
tensile strength in the line of fiber orientation
fusiform muscles develop […]
velocity
**parallel fibers
penniform muscles develop […]
force
[…] units are recruited first to be used, followed by […]
smaller
larger
shortening contraction
concentric
lengthening contraction
eccentric
with concentric contractions, greater force can be produced at […] speed
slower
with eccentric contraction, greater force can be produced at […] speed
faster
**due to viscoelastic nature
[…] of muscle is where optimal force production occurs
middle
early on in strength training, strength improvement actually comes from
neural factors
**greater synchronicity, better recruitment
roll and glide occur in […] directions for a convex surface moving on a concave surface
opposite
**ex. hip flexion causes roll forward and glide backward
roll and glide occur in the […] directions for a concave surface moving on a convex surface
same
**ex. tibia rolls forward and glides forward to stay on joint
study of properties of motion
kinematics
examples of kinematics
displacement
velocity
acceleration
study of forces that create motion
kinetics
**forces applied at an instant in time (work, impulse, linear force, etc)
coplanar in opposite direction
shear force
colinear in opposite direction
tensile force
colinear, in similar directions to push together
compressive force
is ground reaction forces an example of kinematics or kinetics?
kinetics
what are ground reaction forces measuring?
impulse- force applied over time
center of pressure- point of application of the ground reaction force
describe the time-dependent properties of visco-elastic materials
longer load=greater deformation
describe the rate dependent properties of visco-elastic materials
better resists loads applied more quickly than those applied slowly
