This patient had a recurvatum problem at the knee; so, the posterior shell might have been given to this patient to gain some time until the patient's knee flexors became stronger.
Apply torque to a bolt head only when a torque wrench cannot be used on the nut. After application of torque to a nut, further tightening to align the slot for cotter pin or lockwire is permitted. a. Torque Definitions. Torque definitions are explained In the following paragraphs. (1) Breakaway torque Breakaway torque (table 2-8) is defined as minimum torque required to start the movement of a nut on or off bolt with no axial load on the nut and with the bolt completely through the nut. (2) Friction torque (tare, drag, run on).
Torque, Traction and Wheel Slip. Torque is the twisting force that the engine produces. The torque from the engine is what moves your car. The various gears in the transmission and differential multiply the torque and split it up between the wheels.uite simply, wheel slip occurs when the force applied to a tire exceeds the traction available to that tire. Force is applied to the tire in two ways: 1  Longitudinally -- Longitudinal force comes from the torque applied to the tire by the engine or by the brakes.
