Final Exam Flashcards
osteokinematics:
study of movement that involves movement of bones
(no forces)
-tibia on talus
arthrokinematics:
study of movement that involves movement of joints
(no forces)
-roll,glide, spin
kinetics:
has to do with forces
the axis of rotation is _____ to the plane of motion
perpendicular
how many degrees of freedom for each cardinal plane?
- 3 of rotation
- 3 for translational (accessory motion)
high young’s modulus vs a lower young’s modulus:
- high has a steeper slope so it is a stiffer material
- lower has less of a slope so less stiff
plasticity
-when a material deforms permanently
elasticity
-matierial can return to original shape after loading
most tendons fail at:
8-13% beyond prestretched length
toe region is caused by
: uncrimping of collagen
moment arm:
-perpendicular distance from axis to line of pull of force
moment arm is 0 if:
- the force pierces the axis
2. the force parallels the axis
purpose of type II collagen:
-provide framework for maintaining shape and consistency of the structure
dense connective tissue:
- low proteoglycans and elastin
- type I collagen
- few cells
- limited blood supply
diarthrodial joints
- synovial joints
- freely moveable
- joint cavity separates bones
