  2. Joint dislocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_dislocation

    Dislocations are commonly caused by sudden trauma to the joint like during a car accident or fall. A joint dislocation can damage the surrounding ligaments, tendons, muscles, and nerves. [2] Dislocations can occur in any major joint (shoulder, knees, hips) or minor joint (toes, fingers). The most common joint dislocation is a shoulder ...

  3. Dislocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dislocation

    Dislocations of edge (left) and screw (right) type. In materials science, a dislocation or Taylor's dislocation is a linear crystallographic defect or irregularity within a crystal structure that contains an abrupt change in the arrangement of atoms.

  4. Musculoskeletal injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musculoskeletal_injury

    Musculoskeletal injury spans into a large variety of medical specialties including orthopedic surgery (with diseases such as arthritis requiring surgery), sports medicine, [5] emergency medicine (acute presentations of joint and muscular pain) and rheumatology (in rheumatological diseases that affect joints such as rheumatoid arthritis).

  6. Burgers vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burgers_vector

    The edge dislocation can be imagined as the introduction of a half plane (gray boxes) that does not fit the crystal symmetry. The screw dislocation can be imagined as cut and shear operation along a half plane. The vector's magnitude and direction is best understood when the dislocation-bearing crystal structure is first visualized without the ...

  7. Crystallographic defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallographic_defect

    The dislocation line is presented in blue, the Burgers vector b in black. Edge dislocations are caused by the termination of a plane of atoms in the middle of a crystal. In such a case, the adjacent planes are not straight, but instead bend around the edge of the terminating plane so that the crystal structure is perfectly ordered on either side.

  8. Disarticulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disarticulation

    In medical terminology, disarticulation is the separation of two bones at their joint, either traumatically by way of injury or by a surgeon during arthroplasty or amputation. [ 1 ] See also

  9. Diffraction topography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffraction_topography

    Apart from the Darwin width of the reflection, the width of single dislocation images may additionally depend on the Burgers vector of the dislocation, i.e. both its length and its orientation (relative to the scattering vector), and, in plane wave topography, on the angular departure from the exact Bragg angle. The latter dependence follows a ...
