Adhesive or repulsive forces contributed by both meniscus and viscous forces can be significant and become one of the main reliability issues when the contacting surfaces are ultra smooth, and the normal load is small, as is common for micro/nano devices. In this study, both meniscus and viscous forces during separation for smooth and rough hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces are studied. The ...

We report a case of bilateral, permanent subluxation of the lateral meniscus. To our knowledge, the present case is the first reported description of bilateral irreducible anterior dislocation of the posterior segment of the lateral meniscus. This disorder is characterized by a flipped meniscus sign of the lateral meniscus on sagittal magnetic resonance images of the knee joint, with no history...
