Anatomical terms of bone
[edit on Wikidata]

A condyle (/ˈkɒndəl/ or /ˈkɒndaɪl/;[1][2]Latin: condylus, from Greek: kondylos; κόνδυλος knuckle) is the round prominence at the end of a bone, most often part of a joint - an articulation with another bone. It is one of the markings or features of bones, and can refer to:


  • On the femur, in the knee joint:
    • Medial condyle

    • Lateral condyle


  • On the tibia, in the knee joint:
    • Medial condyle

    • Lateral condyle


  • On the humerus, in the elbow joint:

    • Condyle of humerus (Condylus humeri)

  • On the mandible, in the temporomandibular joint:
    • Mandibular condyle

  • On the occipital bone, in the atlanto-occipital joint:
    • Occipital condyles

Although not generally termed condyles, the trochlea and capitulum of the humerus act as condyles in the elbow, and the femur head acts as a condyle in the hip joint.

Spillway

Chute spillway of Llyn Brianne dam in Wales A spillway is a structure used to provide the controlled release of flows from a dam or levee into a downstream area, typically the riverbed of the dammed river itself. In the United Kingdom, they may be known as overflow channels . Spillways ensure that the water does not overflow and damage or destroy the dam. Floodgates and fuse plugs may be designed into spillways to regulate water flow and reservoir level. Such a spillway can be used to regulate downstream flows – by releasing water in small amounts before the reservoir is full, operators can prevent sudden large releases that would happen if the dam were overtopped. Other uses of the term "spillway" include bypasses of dams or outlets of channels used during high water, and outlet channels carved through natural dams such as moraines. Water normally flows over a spillway only during flood periods – when the reservoir cannot hold the excess of water entering the reservoir ove...
