One of the difficulties of numerical simulations of cold supersonic astrophysical flows is a big difference in different types of energy. Gravitational and/or kinetic energy of the gas could be much larger than its internal energy. In such a case, it is possible to get large numerical errors in the simulations. To avoid this difficulty, conservation of entropy equation was used instead of energy conservation equation. The entropy conservation equation does not contain the gravitational and kinetic energy. The application of the isentropic set of equations is correct when the flow does not contain shocks or the amplitude of the shocks (shock wave Mach number) is not large. We estimate the violation of the energy conservation low when the “shock wave” is isentropic.

Although joints with synovial cavities and articular surfaces are very variable, they all have one common peculiarity. In most cases, one of the articular surfaces is concave, whereas the other one is convex. During the formation of a joint, the epiphysis, which has less kinetic energy during the movements in the joint, forms a convex surface, whereas large kinetic energy forms the epiphysis with a concave surface. Basing on this concept, the analysis of the structure of the joints, allows to determine forces involved into their formation, and to identify the general patterns of the formation of the skeleton.
