Bilateral calf chronic compartment syndrome in an elderly male: a case report

Leg pain is a common presentation to the outpatient department. Bilateral calf chronic compartment syndrome is a rare cause of bilateral calf pain. Although this condition has been well documented in young athletes, it has rarely been reported in the elderly. We present the case of a 68-year-old male bodybuilder with bilateral calf chronic compartment syndrome, describe the presentation and evaluation of the condition, and provide a review of the literature herewith

A Parallel, Unstructured-Mesh Methodology for Device-Scale Combustion Calculations

RŽsumŽ Ñ MŽthodologie parall le avec maillages destructurŽs pour des calculs de combustion-effet du nombre de processeurs Ñ Los Alamos National Laboratories dŽveloppent une mŽthodologie de calcul parall le, destructurŽe et en volumes finis pour la mŽcanique des fluides numŽrique. Cette mŽthodologie est implantŽe dans le code Chad (Computational Hydrodynamics for Advanced Design). Dans cet article, on donne un aper u de la mŽthodologie numŽrique de Chad, et une prŽsentation des rŽsultats de calculs parall les d'Žcoulements dans un moteur Diesel ˆ 4 soupapes. L'efficacitŽ en fonction du nombre de processeurs est ŽtudiŽe. Abstract Ñ A Parallel, Unstructured-Mesh Methodology for Device-Scale Combustion Calculations Ñ Los Alamos National Laboratories is developing a parallel, unstructured-mesh, finite-volume CFD methodology for the simulation of chemically reactive flows in complex geometries. The methodology is embodied in the Chad (Computational Hydrodynamics for Advanced Design) code. In this report we give an overview of the Chad numerical methodology and present parallel scaling results for calculations of flows in a four-valve Diesel engine
