     the mechanical functions of the menisci may be partially performed through the fluid pressurization in articular cartilages and menisci. this creep behavior has not been investigated in whole knee joint modeling. a three-dimensional finite element knee model was employed in the present study to explore the fluid-flow dependent creep behaviors of normal and meniscectomy knees. the model included distal femur, tibia, fibula, articular cartilages, menisci and four major ligaments. articular cartilage or meniscus was modeled as a fluid-saturated solid matrix reinforced by a nonlinear orthotropic and site-specific collagen network. a 300 n compressive force, equal to half of body weight, was applied to the knee in full extension followed by creep. the results showed that the fluid pressurization played a substantial role in joint contact mechanics. menisci bore more loading as creep developed, leading to decreased stresses in cartilages. the removal of menisci not only changed the stresses in the cartilages, which was in agreement with published studies, but also altered the distribution and the rate of dissipation of fluid pressure in the cartilages. the high fluid pressures in the femoral cartilage moved from anterior to more central regions of the condyles after total meniscectomy. for both intact and meniscectomy joints, the fluid pressure level remained considerably high for thousands of seconds during creep, which lasted even longer after meniscectomy. for the femoral cartilage, the maximum principal stress was generally in agreement with the fiber direction, which indicated the essential role of fibers in load support of the tissue.
