Jets From Impact

When a test tube of liquid hits a surface, the curvature of the meniscus focuses the rebounding fluid into a jet. In this video, researchers show some of the many variations they’ve explored on these experiments–from changing the depth of the fluid and the shape of the container, to changing the working fluid to honey or to dry grains. It’s a nice introduction to a fascinating phenomenon! (Video and image credit: H. Watanabe et al.; research credit: H. Watanabe et al. and K. Kobayashi et al.)

Gordon heeft een zware fysieke tegenslag moeten verwerken. De radiomaker, die aan het trainen is om op de cover van Men's Health te komen, heeft afgelopen vrijdag waarschijnlijk zijn meniscus gescheurd. Dat vertelt hij zondag geëmotioneerd in een video op Instagram.

Wave Energy Through the Meniscus

Even small changes to a meniscus can change how much wave energy passes through it. A new study systemically tests how meniscus size and shape affects the transmission of incoming waves.

As seen above, the meniscus was formed on a suspended barrier. By changing the barrier size and wettability as well as the characteristics of incoming waves, researchers were able to map out how the meniscus affected waves that made it past the barrier.

In particular, they found that drawing the meniscus upward by raising the barrier would, at first, enhance wave transmission but then suppressed wave energy as the barrier moved higher. They attributed the change in behavior to an interplay between water column height and meniscus inclination. (Research and image credit: Z. Wang et al.; via Physics World)

The risk of knee osteoarthritis is 4 times higher after ACL injury compared to before.

🚨 Tore your ACL or meniscus?
A meta-analysis of 1M+ people found a 4–6x higher risk of developing knee osteoarthritis after injury.
Even in young adults.
🦵 Prevention and proper rehab matter more than ever.
