Tensegrity pelvis: Ilium and sacrum modeled as a section of an octet truss
A closer look at the pelvis suggests that ilium and the sacrum together can be usefully modeled as a section of an octet truss. Continue reading Tensegrity pelvis: Ilium and sacrum modeled as a section of an octet truss

This is a model of the pelvis combined with a Proto type spine from 2004. The pelvis is a crude approximation of How force vectors in the pelvis operate and I found a way to connect it to rudimentary spine. This spine was an early attempt to utilize stellated tetrahedrons as individual vertebrae that were then linked together with tensioned ‘saddle slings’ to form a tensegrity mast. Later models of the pelvis became more realistic.T-Pelvis _ Pelvis 3-4

This image was Dr. Levin’s rather abstract attempt to describe the pelvis as a hub much like a bicycle wheel. He used a Tensegrity wheel which I had built and superimposed it on the image of a pelvis. T-Pelvis _ Plvs levin
