Technical Question for the Suspension Gurus

Hi guys. I know it's generally accepted that installing aftermarket springs decreases the life of the factory shocks and struts...

My question is what, mechanically, causes the extra wear and stress? And is the decrease in strut/shock life proportional to the drop?

Thanks in advance for your advice. I used the search feature for this topic for about an hour (to no avail)
