Symptoms of a Herniated Disc. When the herniated disc ruptures and pushes out, the nerves may become pinched. A herniated disc may occur suddenly in an event such as a fall or an accident, or may occur gradually with repetitive straining of the spine.
General strain theory has defined measurements of strain, the major types of strain, the links between strain and crime, coping strategies to strain, the determinants of delinquent or nondelinquent behavior, and policy recommendations that are based on this theory.
Slide 2 of 14. Notes: The fact that strain means relative change in shape or size implies that it is dimensionless and has no units. Stress, on the other hand, has dimension of force per unit area, or, less often, force per unit length. This statement of Hookes Law (stress proportional to strain) is a more general statement than the more specific one given in a later slide, that restoring force is proportional to displacement.
