Articulation

Examples of Articulation in the following topics:

• Tibia and Fibula (The Leg)

  • The tibia and the smaller fibula bones comprise the lower leg and articulate at the knee and ankle.
  • It widens and forms two condyles—the lateral and medial—that articulate with the condyles of the femur.
  • The medial malleolus is a bony projection that articulates with the tarsal bones to form the ankle joint.
  • Laterally, there is the fibular notch that articulates with the fibula.
  • It also articulates with the tarsal bones to form the ankle joint.

• Ulna and Radius (The Forearm)

  • The forearm contains two bones—the radius and the ulna—that extend in parallel from the elbow, where they articulate with the humerus to the wrist, where they articulate with the carpals.
  • The cornoid process, together with the olecranon, forms the trochlear notch where it articulates with the trochlea of the humerus.
  • Laterally to the trochlear notch lies the radial notch, which articulates with the head of the radius to form the proximal radioulnar joint.
  • Distally the radius expands, medially the ulnar notch articulates with the head of the ulnar.
  • Immediately adjacent to the ulnar notch, the radius articulates with the scaphoid and lunate carpal bones to form part of the wrist.

• Carpals, Metacarpals, and Phalanges (The Hand)

  • The scaphoid and lunate articulate with the radius, and the lunate and triquetrum articulate with the articular disk of the wrist.
  • The trapezium articulates with the scaphoid proximally and the first, thumb, and second metacarpal distally.
  • The trapezoid articulates with the scaphoid proximally and the second metacarpal distally.
  • The capitate articulates with the scaphoid and lunate proximally and the third and fourth metacarpal.
  • The hand contains five metacarpal bones that articulate proximally with the carpals and distally with the proximal phalanges.

• Structures Used in Voice Production

  • The articulation of consonants occurs at a point of either active or passive articulation, which is a place in the vocal tract where an obstruction stops the sound.
  • The passive place of articulation is the place on the more stationary part of the vocal tract where the articulation occurs.
  • Passive places of articulation include:
  • Active places of articulation include:
  • Places of articulation (active and passive): 1.

• Articulation

  • (For more audio examples of violin articulations, please see Common Violin Terminology. )
  • A tie is not really an articulation marking.
  • Some articulations may be some combination of staccato, legato, and accent.
  • Plenty of music has no articulation marks at all, or marks on only a few notes.
  • Since there is no articulation between them, they sound like a single note.

• Humerus (The Upper Arm)

  • Proximally it articulates with the scapula to form the shoulder joint, or glenohumeral joint.
  • Distally, the humerus articulates with the radius and ulna to form the elbow joint.
  • Distally, the humerus flattens to articulate with the ulna and radius at the elbow joint.
  • The medially located trochlea articulates with the ulna.
  • Located laterally to this is the capitulum that articulates with the radius.

• Tarsals, Metatarsals, and Phalanges (The Foot)

  • The proximal row contains the talus, which is the most superior of the tarsals and articulates with the tibia and fibula to form the ankle joint.
  • It articulates with the talus superiorly and anteriorly with the cuboid of the distal group.
  • The intermediate group contains only the navicular bone, which articulates with all of the tarsals—with the exception of the calcaneus.
  • The distal tarsals articulate with the metatarsals and also maintain the transverse arch of the foot.
  • The proximal base articulates with the cuboid bones, and distally with the proximal phalanges, and each metatarsal also articulates laterally with adjacent metatarsals.

• Articulation and Reflection

  • Smart decides to explore Articulation and Reflection further.
  • After finding out more about Articulation and Reflection, Mrs.
  • Smart realizes that politics are Articulation and Reflection.
  • Good Articulation requires time and practice.
  • Opportunities for Articulation in a safe educational environment with ample time to explain ideas can help develop learners' Articulation skills.

• Parts of a Vertebra

  • When articulated together the vertebrae form a strong yet flexible structure that encloses the vertebral foramen, or opening, where the spinal cord sits.
  • It also provides a base for numerous muscle attachments and articulations with other bones.
  • The anterior vertebral body which is the point of articulation between the vertebrae.
  • They interact with the zyhapophysis, a socket for the articular processes, of the adjacent vertebrae to make the spine more stable and to facilitate a small degree of articulation.
  • The transverse processes articulate with the ribs in conjunction with the vertebral body.

• Articulation and Pronunciation

  • Articulation focuses on making individual sounds and pronunciation focuses on stress, rhythm, and intonation of the syllables in the word.
  • The first act of speech is breathing, in which you get air into a storage chamber; second is phonation, the process by which you force air into vibration by the action of the vocal folds; third, resonation, in which your mouth,nose and throat cavities amplify the sound so you can hear it; and finally there is articulation, in which you modify the sound by movement of the teeth, tongue, and lips into recognizable patterns.
  • There are only forty-four sounds to master, and as young child you started making them by mastering simple sounds which you later articulated into repetitive sound combinations and then words.
  • If you can not physically produce the sound, then you may want to consult with a professional speech therapist to help you with articulation.
  • When we talk about pronunciation, we focus on the word rather than the individual sound, as with articulation.
