Where is the center of gravity located at the level of the pelvis in the sagittal plane?
|
Anterior to the body of S2
|
|
What is the principal determinant of the magnitude of the JRF (joint
reaction force)? |
Muscle activity around the joint
|
|
Define stress and strain
|
Stress = force/area (measure of internal strain)
Strain = change in length/original length (measure of deformability) |
|
How is strain energy represented on the stress-strain diagram?
|
Area under the curve
|
|
Strain energy is a measure of what material property?
|
Toughness
|
|
What is the definition of toughness?
|
Ability of a material to absorb energy before it fails
|
|
What is the definition of stiffness?
|
Resistance of a material to deformation from an applied load
|
|
Compare the stress-strain curve appearances of brittle and ductile materials.
|
Brittle materials have linearly perfect stress-strain curves; no plastic deformation
Ductile materials allow for a large amount of plastic deformation |
|
If cortical bone is the midline, working away from the midline in the direction of increasing elastic modulus are what four materials?
|
Titanium
Stainless steel Cobalt chrome Ceramic/alumina |
|
Working away from the midline in the direction of decreasing elastic modulus are what three materials?
|
Polymethylmethacrylate
Polyethylene Cancellous bone |
|
What is the definition of fatigue failure?
|
Failure after many cycles of repetitive submaximal load
|
|
Fatigue failure will never occur if what condition is met?
|
Force is below the endurance limit of the material
|
|
As the strain rate increases, viscoelastic materials become more what?
|
Stiff (higher elastic modulus)
|
|
What is the definition of hysteresis?
|
Hysteresis refers to energy dissipation such that unloading and loading does not follow the same path
|
|
Stress relaxation of a liquid is essentially the same as what?
|
Creep
|
|
What formula determines the bending rigidity of a rectangle?
|
Base * height3
