The quality, state, or act of being bent like a knee; a sharp bend or angle in a structure; the formation of knee-like joints.
From Latin 'geniculatio,' derived from 'geniculatus' (bent like a knee). The suffix '-tion' creates an abstract noun describing the process or result of geniculating.
The geniculation of a plant stem or an antenna is literally how nature creates knees in things that aren't people—this term captures the whole process of making angular bends!
