    The document describes an experiment to model the human back using cords, beams, and components. Students will construct a human back model and observe the angle of the back under different applied loads. Load cells can measure the compression and tension forces in the model. A diagram shows the force vectors acting on the model, with two load cells measuring the tension in cords representing lower back muscles. The experiment aims to demonstrate biomechanics of the human back.

    Human Back Model: Force Vector Diagram

    Introduction
    The ME-7001 Human Structures Set is one part of the PASCO Structures System. The Human
    Structures Set can be used as a stand-alone set and it can also be combined with other parts of
    the PASCO Structures System. The set includes all of the items necessary to build one each of
    the following: Human Arm Model, Human Back Model, Human Leg Model. A Load Cell and
    Amplifier Set (PS-2199) can be added to measure compression and tension forces in the human
    structure models.
    Related Equipment
    • Load Cell Amplifier (PS-2198) - Can plug in up to six Load Cells; requires a PASPORT
    interface to connect to the USB port of a computer.
    • Load Cell and Amplifier Set (PS-2199) - Load Cell Amplifier (PS-2198) with four 100 N
    Load Cells (PS-2200).
    • 100 N Load Cell (PS-2200) - Strain gauges mounted on a beam with no electronics so a Load
    Cell requires a Load Cell Amplifier (PS-2198) or Dual Load Cell Amplifier PS-2206).
    • 5 N Load Cell (PS-2201) - Strain gauges mounted on a beam with no electronics so a Load
    Cell requires a Load Cell Amplifier or Dual Load Cell Amplifier.
    • Displacement Sensor (PS-2205) - A PASPORT Sensor and a digital displacement indicator
    designed to measure the deflection of parts of a structure.
    • Dual Load Cell Amplifier (PS-2206) - Can plug in one or two Load Cells; requires a
    PASPORT interface to connect to the USB port of a computer.

    The following diagram shows the force vectors acting on the human back model.
    Load Cells

    The Load Cells directly measure the forces exerted on the back model. The structure is shown
    with two Load Cells measuring the tension in the cords representing lower back muscles. The
    experiment can be performed using more Load Cells mounted in place of the Straight
    Connectors in the base.
