AB  - This article presents a study of synovial fluid
flow in the joint cavity and articular cartilage of a
diseased human knee joint. The synovial fluid flows due
to the pressure gradient and squeezing action and articular
cartilages, which are considered as porous materials. In
the present paper, the flow of synovial fluid has been
addressed primarily by investigating synovial fluid flux in
the joint cavity and cartilage. The computational results
for pressure gradient-induced synovial fluid flow in the
human knee joint have obtained. The results in the form
of graphs have shown to comprehend the flow mechanism
and the influence of model parameters on fluid flow have
investigated. It has also shown that how permeability,
viscosity and other critical characteristics affect the
synovial fluid flow. This study can assist in gaining
essential and substantial insight into the identification of
components that may be involved in the development of
medical disorders in the human knee joint.
