Distinguish between sessile dislocation and glissile dislocation?
A sessiledislocation has a Burger's Vector that does not lie in the primary slip plane of the crystal, so it is immobile offering an obstacle to the movement of other dislocations.A glissile dislocation has Burger's Vector that does not lie in the primary slip plane of the crystal and thus is able to move in that plane.Dislocation that can move by pure slip are called Glissle.Dislocation which cannot glide, but have to move by some form of mass transport are called sessile.In crystals, the dislocation core spreads to certain crystallographic planes containing the dislocation line. If the core spreads into one of such planes, the core is planer and is glissile.If the core spreads into several non-parallel planes of the zone of dislocation line, it is non-planar and sessile. In the former case dislocation moves easily in the plane of the core spreading, while in the later case, it moves only with difficulty. Shockley partial is a partial dislocation, the Burger vector of which lies in the plane of the fault. Then, Shockley partials are glissile. A Frank partial is a partial dislocation, the Burgers vector of which is not parallel to the fault. Then, Frank partials are sessile.

How do you identify a dislocation?
You can usually tell by simply looking at it. For instance, if your kneecap is pointing sideways, you dislocated it, and are likely bawling your eyes out.
What is a subluxated knee?
A subluxation is a partial dislocation that corrects itself without intervention. The patella (kneecap) can slide out of its normal tracking groove.
What is the most common type of dislocation?
Hip joint dislocation
How is the patella more commonly known?

Why does your knee cap need to be protected?
The kneecap needs to be protected to reduce the risk of injury that may have long-term effects.Your kneecap (patella) is one of four bones that make up the knee joint.Femur (thigh bone)Tibia (shin bone)Fibula (outer shin bone)Patella (kneecap)3 Most Common Injuries to the kneecap:Chondromalacia Patellae is the most common disorder that occurs from irritation of cartilage on the undersurface of the kneecap. Known as "Runner's Knee."Prepatellar Bursitis is swelling over the front of the knee. Often caused by extensive kneeling.Patellar Subluxation/Dislocation is where the patella does not track evenly within its groove on the femur.2 Ways To Protect the Kneecap:Proper training, develop strong muscles to help support the knee. Strong and flexible quadriceps and hamstrings reduce the risk of injury.Proper equipment, the correct footwear will reduce the risk of injury (less chance of twisting and relieves stress from joint). While properly fitting padding will help keep your kneecap safe in sporting events.
