Approach to Stress Fractures: Report of Three Cases and Review of Literature [PDF]
Stress fractures occur following repetitive and mechanical overloading of the bones. Two known subtypes are fatigue fractures and insufficiency fractures. Generally, pain in the affected bone increases with activity and decreases with rest.

Sequential Proximal Tibial Stress Fractures associated with Prolonged usage of Methotrexate and Corticosteroids: A Case Report [PDF]
Stress fractures of the proximal tibia metaphysis are rare in the elderly. We present a case of a 65-year old male who developed sequential proximal tibia stress fractures associated with prolonged usage of methotrexate and prednisolone within a span of ...

Anisotropy, focal mechanisms, and state of stress in an oilfield : passive seismic monitoring in Oman [PDF]
Knowledge of the spatial characteristics of stress and fractures in reservoirs is important for optimising production and injection processes. Serni-permanent passive microseismic monitoring is being conducted in the Yibal field, Oman, to better ...

Interference fracturing: Nonuniform distributions of perforation clusters that promote simultaneous growth of multiple hydraulic fractures [PDF]
One of the important hurdles in horizontal-well stimulation is the generation of hydraulic fractures (HFs) from all perforation clusters within a given stage, despite the challenges posed by stress shadowing and reservoir variability.

Tarsal navicular stress fracture in a female gymnast
Stress fractures should be considered in any athlete presenting with the insidious onset of pain, especially in the setting of a sudden change in activity or training level. Tarsal navi-cular stress fractures are high-risk stress fractures typically seen
