What are the five types of load bearing tissues?
Bone Ligaments Tendons Cartilage Muscles
These load bearing tissues adapt _____ and _____ to their loading environment
Positively, Negatively
What is the definition of a load?
Externally applied forces and torques
There are six different mechanical loading modes, name them
- Tension
- Compression
- Shear
- Torsion
- Bending
- Combined
What is deformation?
When loaded, musculoskeletal tissues change shape
The slope of a load deformation curve represents what?
Stiffness
What is the formula for slope in a deformation curve?
K=change in load/ change in deformation
What is compliance?
The inverse of stiffness (1/K)
As an increased slope, stiffness _______
Increases
True or false, stress and strain are a measure.
False, they are converted and normalized.
What is mechanical stress?
When muscles develop internal resistance to loading.
What is the formula for mechanical stress?
(Sigma)σ=Force/Area
What is the difference between stress and pressure?
Stress is internal measure of force/cross sectional area
Pressure is external measure of force/surface area
Stress is a ________ load
Normalized
What does normalization mean?
Normalization is a way of allowing comparison of materials. You divide load by cross sections area.
Stress is the ______ force over a large ________ _______
Same, cross-sectional area
What is mechanical strain?
This is another way of measuring change in shape of material (or object) that is caused by loading.
What’s the difference between deformation and strain?
Deformation is measured in absolute terms (m)
Strain is measured in relative terms (%)
What is the formula for strain?
ε=(dimensions change/unloaded dimension)x100
Strain, like stress, is __________
Normalized
For the linear portion of stress and strain, slope represents the _______ ________
Elastic modulus (E)
What do we convert deformation to?
Stress and strain curves
What is Hookes law? Wha does it determine?
σ =E x ε
This determines stress and strain are linearly related
σ =E x ε is similar to what equation?
Y=mx
