stress
the force per unit area of a structure measures the intensity of the force
strain
the change in length, angle, or shape when subjected to loading
plasticity
ability to permanently deform when loaded beyond its elastic limit
creep
deformation over time when constantly loaded
recovery
gradual return to original length when load is removed
hysteresis
phenomenon associated with energy loss exhibited by viscoelastic materials when they are subjected to loading and unloading cycles. the energy is lost usually in the form of heat
shear
force that is parallel to contacting surfaces and has an action line in direction of attempted movement
Radicular pain
pain in a predictable pattern associated with nerve root insult
Radiating pain
pain in predictable pattern associated with nerve injury. shooting pain
Three types of referred pain
visceral, myofacial, sclerotogenous
visceral referred pain
organ dysfunction results in pain in a predictable pattern
myofacial referred pain
pain in predictable pattern related to TrP or facial adhesions
sclerotogenous referred pain
pain in predictable pattern related to embryologic origin, often more sever than radicular pain, typically not peripheral, shooting pain with no signs of weakness, or MRI/reflex findings
Sprain is an injury to a
ligament
Strain is an injury to a
muscle or tendon
what is the effort force
the force affecting the direction of rotation; muscles often provide the EF
what is the resistance force
opposing force (torque). gravity and mass of the segment often provide RF
effective arm is
distance between the fulcrum and EF
resistance arm is
distance between the fulcrum and RF
in first class levers the EA may be
greater than, less than, or equal to the RA depending on the location of the fulcrum
