The most widely used knee mechanisms for through-knee amputees can be characterized as three principal types of design. These types are metal side bars with heavy duty joints, conventional knee mechanisms for above-knee amputees and special polycentric linkage mechanisms for through-knee amputees. An investigation in Sweden in 1979 showed that over 50%

Knee Point Identification Based on Trade-Off Utility [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Knee points, characterised as their smallest trade-off loss at all objectives, are attractive to decision makers in multi-criterion decision-making. In contrast, other Pareto-optimal solutions are less attractive since a small improvement on one objective can lead to a significant degradation on at least one of the other objectives.
