5.5K views · 80 reactions | Tensegrity is a design principle where both tension and compression are at play simultaneously. In our bodies, this sample principle helps us understand how knee pain can be related to hip alignment, and how your shoe choice might affect your back. If you’re struggling with joint pain, it could also be helpful to try focusing on areas downstream or upstream from the area of concern. #balance | YOGABODY | Facebook

Nova Plexus Puzzle https://www.physicsfunshop.com/search?keywords=tensegrity 12 identical brass rods can create 4 interlocking triangles in a perfect symmetry- look carefully and you can see that each rod is in an identical configuration with the 5 others that connect with it. Precision machined notches on the ends of the rods allow them to interlock with elastic tension such that vector sum of the 5 forces on each rod is zero- creating this astonishing geometry as the equilibrium state.

Mini Tensegrity Table: thin but strong cables provide the support in this precision machined version of the tensegrity concept, where flexible tethers under tension are placed in balance and create an illusion of levitation. The first tensegrity structure was invented by Kenneth Snelson in 1949 and the concept was later made famous by the architect Buckminster Fuller. This stand by Kontax Engineering Ltd came as a kit and was a lot of fun to assemble. ➡️ Follow the link in my profile for info on
