3 F T R 1.5” 6” Forces generated on the foot while a 150 lb man is standing (on 2 legs)? Determine F What is tension generated in achilles tendon (connected to gastronemius muscle) during 2 legged stance? Determine T 150 FF

4 75 lbs T R 1.5” 6” What is tension generated in achilles tendon (connected to gastronemius muscle) during 2 legged stance? Determine T

5 2 legged stance –300 lbs of load through gastroc and tendon –Difference between tendons and ligaments? –Tendon will stretch-by how much? What do we need to calculate strain?

6 0.8 kg/mm2 would cause 3.5% elongation Can’t find a modulus and use Hooke’s law-why?

7 In fact, σ-ε curve is; –nonlinear –Age –Health –Rate of test –?? others Steel and Aluminum are ‘linear elastic’ What is force (F) and amount of stretch (ε) if we jump? Fast Slow

8 –flex our knees and push generating a rxn on our feet (F1)and momentum has to change –Momentum= –Newton said external forces can change momentum and called it an Impulse –Need to find velocity

9 Jump- raising our potential energy but..conservation of energy we must generate kinetic energy—, where g=32 ft/s 2 and he jumped 2 ft So, F1= So, 175 # due to impulse and 150 # due to weight, assuming 2 legged jump

10 F= Go back to FBD, Now what is stretch of tendon 150 +175 FF F T R 1.5” 6”

11 1.8 kg/mm2 would cause 6% elongation Tendons can fail around 10% strain
