Boltzmann Constant. The Boltzmann Constant (Boltzmannâs Constant) is a fundamental physics constant that plays a pivotal role in almost every single statistical formulation in both quantum and classical physics.here R is the gas constant (8.314â472(15) JâKâ1âmolâ1) . Introduction of the Boltzmann constant here, converts the ideal gas law into an equation that corresponds to the microscopic properties of molecules. where N is the number of molecules of gas.
Generally, the term 'meniscus' is used to refer to the cartilage of the knee, either to the lateral or medial meniscus. Both are cartilaginous tissues that provide structural integrity to the knee when it undergoes tension and torsion.
Meniscal cartilage is the smooth, tough, rubbery, half-moon-shaped tissue that lines your knee joint. It helps the knee bones glide easily over each other, absorbs shock and acts to stabilize the joint. The knee joint contains an inner (or medial) meniscus and an outer (or lateral) meniscus (Figure 1). 1  The medial meniscus is torn much more often than the lateral meniscus.  There are many shapes and sizes of meniscal tears and some cause more problems than others.
