What's the difference between torque and torqued?

Torque


Definition:

  • (n.) A collar or neck chain, usually twisted, especially as worn by ancient barbaric nations, as the Gauls, Germans, and Britons.
  • (n.) That which tends to produce torsion; a couple of forces.
  • (n.) A turning or twisting; tendency to turn, or cause to turn, about an axis.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The solution to these problems would seem either to reduce the time spent in rectangular wires or to change to a bracket with reduced torque, together with appropriate second order compensations in the archwire or the bracket.
  • (2) The behaviour of these parameters with mean torque was found to follow two simple rules.
  • (3) There were no significant effects of training on the time-related contractile properties (time to peak torque, half-relaxation time), CSA, or %MUA of the elbow flexors or knee extensors.
  • (4) Following orthodontic treatment the canine's incisal edge occlusion demonstrates the tip and torque present in the appliance that was used.
  • (5) The torques, although not large enough to dislodge the socket immediately, are repetitive and so may contribute to loosening.
  • (6) The purpose of this study was to test for differences in the maximal isometric hip abduction torque produced between hip sides across multiple hip abduction angles.
  • (7) Torque pulses (of 10 or 100 msec) injected randomly to load or unload the movements stretched or slackened the appropiate prime movers: biceps or triceps.
  • (8) The torque versus rotation curves can be divided into two straight regions and two transition zones.
  • (9) The tendinous caging of the wrist is the main factor for maintaining rigidity of the carpus and transmitting the torque as muscles are contracted.
  • (10) This study compared the effect of varied training frequencies on the development of isometric lumbar extension torque (strength) over 12- and 20-week training periods.
  • (11) When maximal isometric trunk flexor or extensor torques were imposed upon a maximal Valsalva manoeuvre, transversus abdominis activity and intra-abdominal pressure remained comparable within and across conditions, whereas obliquus internus, obliquus externus and rectus abdominis activities either markedly increased (flexion) or decreased (extension).
  • (12) An 8-French right Judkins guiding catheter with a single side hole (USCI), a 3.0 mm balloon dilatation catheter (ACS), and a 0.018 high torque floppy guide wire (ACS) were used.
  • (13) Increased slippage torques of approximately 100 per cent were noted in all interfaces at low values of tightening torque (6 and 8 N m) of the wing-nut clamp and improvements of not less than 50 per cent were obtained at higher tightening torques (10 and 12 N m) on the wing-nut clamp.
  • (14) Both loadings of axial compression force and axial torque are considered.
  • (15) An artificial joint that articulates with full fluid film lubrication could greatly reduce wear and frictional torque and hence reduce the incidence of loosening and inflammatory tissue reaction.
  • (16) The relationship between semitendinosus muscle force and knee joint kinematics during isometric torque production was examined in the frog (Rana pipiens) hindlimb.
  • (17) Phasic-tonic MUs exhibited a phasic burst of activity during the torque ramp which exceeded the firing rate during the static hold period.
  • (18) To test this premise, 14 healthy, untrained men trained four days per week for 20 weeks on a bicycle ergometer for endurance (END Group, n = 4), on an isokinetic device for increased torque production (ITP Group, n = 5), or on both devices (COMBO Group, n = 5).
  • (19) The torque was dependent on the physical distribution of the texture of the sole and slightly dependent on the frictional force.
  • (20) The rate-torque curves for most of these cells were curvilinear (plateau occurred at heavy torque loads), although some cells showed a linear relationship.

Torqued


Definition:

  • (a.) Wreathed; twisted.
  • (a.) Twisted; bent; -- said of a dolphin haurient, which forms a figure like the letter S.
