Dislocation Image Force

Dislocation image force is the elastic force exerted on a crystal dislocation by a nearby free surface or material interface, and it influences plastic deformation in engineering materials. The force arises because the boundary alters the dislocation’s stress field; an equivalent image dislocation can represent this effect, producing an interaction that typically attracts a dislocation toward a traction-free surface and lowers its elastic energy. This behavior affects dislocation escape, surface steps, thin-film relaxation, and the strength of nanoscale materials. Understanding image forces helps researchers analyze defect mobility, interface effects, and the onset of yielding in metals and other crystalline solids.

Intra-articular Shoulder Injection for Reduction Following Shoulder Dislocation

2023

Source: Rachel Liu, BAO, MBBCh, Emergency Medicine, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut, USA The anterior shoulder dislocation is one of the most common joint dislocations seen in emergency settings. In anterior shoulder dislocation, the humeral head is displaced out of the glenohumeral joint in front of the scapular glenoid, resulting in a loss of the articulation between the arm and the rest of the shoulder. This can be caused by a fall onto an abducted, extended, and externally...

Source: Lunelli, L., et. al. Peering at Brain Polysomes with Atomic Force Microscopy. J. Vis. Exp.(2016).This video demonstrates the imaging of polysomes using atomic force microscopy. A nickel-ions-coated mica sheet anchors RNA with attached ribosomes. The sample is washed, dried, and mounted onto the microscope stage. The cantilever tip scans the sample surface, recording laser deflections to map the topology. Software is used to correct distortions and visualize high-resolution polysome...

The technique presented here measures the path of freely swimming microscopic species using single wavelength exposure. C. elegans are used to demonstrate shadow imaging as an inexpensive alternative to costly microscopes. This technique can be adapted to accommodate various orientations, environments and species to measure direction, speed, acceleration and forces.
