25
the ratio of change in deformation to change in load (deformation/load)
compliance
26
the amount of energy that can be absorbed by a body before failure
toughness
27
the amount of energy absorbed by the body as a result of deformation
strain energy
28
the way a force is distributed within a body
stress
29
the change in dimension normalized to the original dimension
strain
30
the ratio of stress to strain
elastic modulus (aka Young's modulus)
31
relative amount of energy stored by the material
strain energy density
32
a DECREASE in STRESS when STRAIN is held CONSTANT for a given period of time
stress relaxation
33
an INCREASE in STRAIN when the STRESS is held CONSTANT for a period of time
creep
34
the lubricating fluid prevents direct surface-to-surface contact
boundary lubrication
35
movement increases the amount of fluid between articulating surfaces, thus increasing their separation
fluid flim lubrication
36
surface material is deformed and removed by frictional forces
wear
37
wear that occurs when two surfaces come in direct contact (acute)
interfacial wear
38
sticking together
adhesion wear
39
sliding past one another
abrasion wear
40
wear that is the result of micro-damage (chronic)
fatigue wear
41
a breaking apart of material - maximum stress exceeds the ultimate stress - strain exceeds the maximum strain
material failure
42
steps to create the model of injury:
- failure tolerance - actual stress - margin of safety
43
the stress level above which failure will occure
failure tolerance
44
how much stress the body is subjected
actual stress
45
the difference b/w the failure tolerance and the actual stress applied to the body
margin of safety
46
we want to ______ margin of safety to decrease injury risk
increase
47
- a injury that happens immediately | - a single external load creates enough stress that it exceeds the failure tolerance of the tissue
acute
48
an injury that develops over time
chronic
49
example of acute injury
sprains and strains
50
examples of chronic injury
stress fractures, anything ending in "itis", shin splints

55
its not just increasing the bone mineral density, but _________________ that determines the overall strength of the bone
