Term
What is a Load?
Definition
A force applied to the outside of a structure and therefore sustained by the structure.
Term
What are 3 types of Loads?
Definition
"Compression, Tension and Shear"
Term
What is Compression Force?
Definition
Force pushing a material or structure more tightly together.
Term
"Axis of loading through bone more _____________ to each other, more compression at joint?"
Definition
Paralllel
Term
What motion at the STJ allows for piling up of the tarsal bones resulting in greater compression at joints of the foot?
Definition
Supination
Term
T/F Bone is ideal/designed for compression?
Definition
TRUE
Term
Does supination increase or decrease the height of the medial arch as seen in the Sagittal Plane?
Definition
Increase
Term
Pronation increases or decreases transverse arching of the lesser tarsus?
Definition
Decreases
Term
The increase of the transverse (side) compression increases or decreases stability?
Definition
Increases
Term
What is Tension Load?
Definition
Stress on a material or structure produced by a pull of forces causing extension or separation.
Term
What type of load on a ligament is what starts the Emergency Action o f ligaments?
Definition
Tension Load.
Term
What is a Shear Load?
Definition
Stress on material or structure causing one material or structure to slide over another material or structure.
Term
What does a Shear Load tend to cause?
Definition
Ripping or Tearing
Term
What is Stress?
Definition
Force generated in the substance of material in response to load.
Term
What types of Stress are there?
Definition
"Compression, Tension and Shear."
Term
T/F Compression Load leads to Compression Stress?
Definition
TRUE
Term
What is Strain?
Definition
The degree of deformation of matter as result of a load put on it.
Term
What types of Strain are there?
Definition
"Compression, Tension and Shear."
Term
What 4 qualities gives a structure the ability to resist strain?
Definition
"Elasticity, Resilience, Toughness and Reaction to damping."
Term
Which qualities are resistant to fracture on impact?
Definition
"Elasticity, resilience and thoughness"
Term
Which qualities are opposite of resilience?
Definition
Only Reaction to damping
Term
What are 2 types of Deformation?
Definition
Elastic and Plastic Deformation
Term
What is Elasticity?
Definition
Based on its ability to return to its original shape after a load has been applied. (Rubber Band)
Term
What is Plasticity?
Definition
The measure of how much the material deforms and remains deformed after a stress is applied to it. (Clay)
Term
What is Young's Modulus?
Definition
Stress/Strain = Measure of elasticity.
Term
What is Stress in Young's Modulus?
Definition
The amount of fromce perunit area of collision.
Term
What is Strain in Young's modulus?
Definition
The amount of distortion (deformation) with respect to original size.
Term
What is Hook's Law?
Definition
As stress increases so does strain proportionately.
Term
T/F Hook's Law applies to solids and gases only?
Definition
"FALSE, only Solids"
Term
T/F All tissues in the body follow Hook's Law?
Definition
"FALSE, not all materials in the body are classified as solids."
Term
What is the Yield Point?
Definition
The point where the load on a material causes the material to submit or lose resistance to the load.
Term
What is the Failure Point?
Definition
The point when a material in response to a load deforms to the point when it no longer performs its normal function.
Term
T/F Material may fail by deforming a great deal or more often by fracturing?
Definition
TRUE
Term
What is Anisotropic Bone Loading?
Definition
The forces of the loads are not in the same direction and are not of the same intensity.
Term
"T/F Different loads are directed on the same bone or bones ie. compression, tension, and shear at the same time?"
Definition
TRUE
Term
What types of load are bones most resistant to?
Definition
Compression (Limit = 20K-30K PSI)
Term
Whay type of load are bones 2nd most resistant to?
Definition
Tension (Limit = 10K-20K PSI)
Term
What ype of load are bones least resistant to?
Definition
Shear (Limit = 400 PSI)
Term
Most fractures are due to Compression. Torque developes during throwing motion. One end of the bone is fixed resulting in Compression forces and bone failure?
Definition
FALSE
Term
T/F Combined loading is an example of Anisotropic Loading?
Definition
TRUE
Term
What is Combined loading?
Definition
"Loading of Compression, Tension and Shear or any combination of these at a given time."
Term
"T/F One of the 3 loads, stress or strain can cause each other to occur?"
Definition
TRUE
Term
What types of loading are involved in Column Loading?
Definition
Direct (Concentric) and Eccentric
Term
What is Concentric Loading?
Definition
Straight donw at the center of the Column.
Term
Direct Loading cause what type of stress/strain?
Definition
Mostly Compression
Term
What is Eccentric (Excentric) Loading?
Definition
"Peripheral Loading, loading outside the center of the column."
Term
What type of strain/stress doe Eccentric loading cause?
Definition
"Shearing and Tension, from the column having a decreased ability to support the weight or force."
Term
When is the Foot a Beam?
Definition
During Midstance
Term
Are the ends secure in a beam?
Definition
NO
Term
What is a beam?
Definition
Resists Bending
Term
When the load is applied to a beam dorsal to plantar where will the compression be?
Definition
Dorsally
Term
What type of a force will passing through the beam dorsal to plantar
Definition
Tension
Term
What is the sole bearer of the body weight during Midstance
Definition
One foot.
Term
What is failure of the ability to with stand this dorsal to plantar force going through the foot at Medstance?
Definition
Charcot Foot
