Many patients with back pain, leg pain, or weakness of the lower extremity muscles are diagnosed with a herniated disc. When a disc herniation occurs, the cushion that sits between the spinal vertebra is pushed outside its normal position.

Equivalent Plastic Strain. The equivalent plastic strain gives a measure of the amount of permanent strain in an engineering body. The equivalent plastic strain is calculated from the component plastic strain as defined in the Equivalent stress/strain section. Most common engineering materials exhibit a linear stress-strain relationship up to a stress level known as the proportional limit.
