the mechanical behavior of articular cartilage is a function of
- intrinsic, flow independent behavior of the collagen-PG matrix
- flow of interstitial fluid through the matrix and its resistance
swelling caused by ionic phase
during gait, the superior eccentricity of the trabecular bone within the femoral neck tends to
reduce internal effective moment produced by the joint contact force

eccentric contraction
eccentric contraction
lengthening of muscles (downward of bicep curl)
concentric contraction
shortening of muscle (upward of bicep curl)
