Find out the maximum force of a joint

Hi,

I want to know if there is a way fo find out the maximum force of a joint. The force that we should not exceed.

For example in human leg, if we apply a big external force to the knee, it will break. now how can i find the necessary force that will just make the leg move without breaking the knee.

I have a programme that generates robot morphologies randomly with different sizes, so I have to know the force to not exceed for each joint. I think this depend on weight, mass, inertia of each robot part.

I can not do this by trial and error because I have hundreds different morphologies.

This video shows the behaviour of robot if I apply a big force.

Thanks in advance!
