There appears to be a continuum of damage from normal vascular channels adjacent to the ACL/PCL through to intermediate microanatomical damage and finally established erosions at the same location.

Fatigue damage in particular is described utilizing a continuum theory of damage.

As deep seismic reflector anomalies are generally inferred to represent deformation relating to ancient tectonic margin processes (for example, refs 4, 11), these ML scars can be classified as weak zones (that is, a region of reduced grain size at mid-lithospheric depth) via the continuum theory of damage mechanics8,12.

This is the acceleration on the continuum of weapon damage coefficients mentioned above.

Microvascular perturbations such as apoptosis, inflammatory activation and loss of proliferative capacity, are increasingly described as mediators in the continuum of IR damage development.

In addition to the almost universal presence of a vascularised channel at the ACL insertion, we also noted a continuum of associated microanatomical damage of varying severity (figure 4A D).
