Abstract: A knee brace is provided that having a foot support assembly, a knee support assembly, and a calf engagement assembly. The foot support assembly is adjustable relative to the knee support assembly. The calf engagement assembly has a calf brace and is connectable to the foot support assembly and the knee support assembly with adjustment straps. The foot support assembly includes a foot adjustment plate that is connected to a shoe engagement component. The knee support assembly has a knee adjustment plate and has a multilayer pad, and a knee pad connector component connects the multilayer pad and the knee adjustment plate. The knee pad connector component can be connected such that the multilayer pad is in line with or offset relative to the knee pad connector, or the knee pad connector component can be replaced with right and left offset knee pad connector components.

Abstract: Catalyst compositions suitable for use in the exhaust gas recycle stream of an internal combustion engine are provided. Such catalyst compositions typically provide significant amounts of methane in addition to syngas. A reformer incorporating such a catalyst for use in an exhaust gas recycle portion of an internal combustion engine powertrain is described. A powertrain incorporating such a reformer, a method of increasing the octane rating of an exhaust gas recycle stream, and and a method of operating an internal combustion engine using methane-assisted combustion are also described.
