The term "knee" as applied to curves dates at least to the 1910s, [1] and is found more commonly by the 1940s, [2] being common enough to draw criticism. [3] [4] The unabridged Webster's Dictionary (1971 edition) gives definition 3h of knee as: [5] an abrupt change in direction in a curve (as on a graph); esp one approaching a right angle in shape.

Taking a triceps skin fold measurement too frequently or for too long can result in compression of the tissue, and false readings, for example. [9] Even which arm is measured matters, since mid-upper arm circumference is generally greater on the dominant arm (e.g. the right arm for right-handed people).
For example, if the static compression ratio is 10:1, and the dynamic compression ratio is 7.5:1, a useful value for cylinder pressure would be 7.5 1.3 × atmospheric pressure, or 13.7 bar (relative to atmospheric pressure). The two corrections for dynamic compression ratio affect cylinder pressure in opposite directions, but not in equal strength.
Knee timbers in boat building. In woodworking, a knee is a natural or cut curved piece of wood. [1] Knees, sometimes called ship's knees, are a common form of bracing in boat building and occasionally in timber framing. A knee rafter in carpentry is a bent rafter used to gain head room in an attic.
Lossless compression of digitized data such as video, digitized film, and audio preserves all the information, but it does not generally achieve compression ratio much better than 2:1 because of the intrinsic entropy of the data. Compression algorithms which provide higher ratios either incur very large overheads or work only for specific data ...
