Je le cite:

C’est incroyable :o

Le fil du milieu permet la suspension. Les trois autres fils sont là pour équilibrer l’ensemble et éviter que le métal du haut tombe.

Tension Suspension: an interesting take on tensegrity where one heavy wire frame seems mysteriously suspended above another. I was intrigued by videos of similar constructions like this posted recently so I made this version in my shop last night to see how it worked. This sculpture features strings (I used chains to make it look more dramatic) in tension equilibrium, with the top wire frame hanging from the bottom frame by the strand in the center, and the other three strands in tension to keep it from tipping over. This configuration is related to the concept of tensegrity invented by Kenneth Snelson and made famous by the architect Buckminster Fuller in 1949. ➡️ Follow the link in my profile for more info on this sculpture and where to get the amazing items featured here on @physicsfun #physics #physicsfun #physicstoy #tensionforce #tensegrity #buckminsterfuller #kennethsnelson #icosahedron #compression #structuralengineering #floatingcompression #science #scienceisawesome
