Toward a digital meniscus

Flow and transport computations for explicit microstructures of stochastic porous media, here the knee meniscus, are prohibitively time consuming. First, as the porous microstructure is geometrically complex, each simulation is considerably time consuming. Second, the porous microstructure is intrinsically stochastic as it varies from location to location and from specimen to specimen, requiring numerous time-consuming experiments and flow computations to be performed.
