Ligament & Meniscus. Related topic Background Each knee has two menisci. They are commonly called âthe cartilageâ, although this is not strictly accurate. There is one on the medial (inner) side of the knee and one on the lateral (outer) side of the knee. They are C, or crescent shaped, and serve to cup the femur as it sits on the tibia to improve the congruity of the joint.
expiratory reserve volume. Type:Term. Definitions. 1. the maximal volume of air (about 1000 mL) that can be expelled from the lungs after a normal expiration.
In electricity networks, the operating reserve is the generating capacity available to the system operator within a short interval of time to meet demand in case a generator goes down or there is another disruption to the supply.enerators that intend to provide either spinning and non-spinning reserve should be able to reach their promised capacity within roughly ten minutes. Most power system guidelines require a significant fraction of their operating reserve to come from spinning reserve.
