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.
Breakaway torque is defined as the torque required to start a partâs rotation from a stationary position. It is usually a higher value compared to the maximum tightening torque value as per specification .
(tÃ´rk) The tendency of a force applied to an object to make it rotate about an axis. Torque is equal to the amount of the force acting on the object multiplied by the distance from its point of application to the axis around which the object rotates (or would rotate if it were not fixed in place).
