Simulating temporal evolution of pressure in two-phase flow in porous media [PDF]
We have simulated the temporal evolution of pressure due to capillary and viscous forces in two-phase drainage in porous media. We analyze our result in light of macroscopic flow equations for two-phase flow. We also investigate the effect of the trapped

Cysts of the menisci of the knee [PDF]
Summary A review of a series of 249 consecutive meniscectomies reveals an overall incidence of cysts of the menisci of 20%. Trauma in younger patients, and degeneration in older patients, appear to be causal factors.

Nanometer-Resolved Collective Micromeniscus Oscillations through Optical Diffraction [PDF]
We study the dynamics of periodic arrays of micrometer-sized liquid-gas menisci formed at superhydrophobic surfaces immersed into water. By measuring the intensity of optical diffraction peaks in real time we are able to resolve nanometer scale ...

Meniscal Dimensions and its Clinical Implications- A Foetal Cadaveric Study
Introduction: The menisci are made up of fibrocartilage. The menisci are prone for injuries and treated by meniscal repair, meniscectomy and the meniscal allograft transplantation.

Microscopic structural changes in osteoarthritic menisci of the human knee joint
Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease for which there is currently no cure. It is characterized by degeneration of articular cartilage and changes in other joint tissues, including subchondral (substance) bone and menisci. It is

Bilateral mucoid degeneration of the posterior cruciate ligaments
Mucoid (myxoid) degeneration of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is well documented and well known. Mucoid degeneration of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) has been reported, but is rare in comparison. The changes may be subtle and may be missed

Dynamic wettability alteration in immiscible two-phase flow in porous media: Effect on transport properties and critical slowing down [PDF]
The change in contact angles due to the injection of low salinity water or any other wettability altering agent in an oil-rich porous medium is modeled by a network model of disordered pores transporting two immiscible fluids.

Failure strengths of repair devices versus meniscus suturing techniques
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare the load to failure of different common suturing techniques with that of repair devices.\nMethods: Seventy-one calf medial menisci were cut to simulate peripheral longitudinal tears and repaired using ...

Flow in a double-film-fed fluid bead between contra-rotating rolls, Part 2: bead break and flooding [PDF]
Two-dimensional flow is considered in a fluid bead located in the gap between a pair of contra-rotating cylinders and bounded by two curved menisci. The stability of such bead flows with two inlet films, and hence no contact line, are analysed as the ...
