Proportional Relationships in Human Bone Measurements

This research explores the mathematical relationship between human body parts, focusing on comparisons such as the ulna to the foot length and the nose-neck distance to the foot length. The study also delves into the presence of the golden section in the forearm and hand proportions. Discover how mathematics aligns with human anatomy in fascinating ways.

  1. Research on bones SunnaAustmannBjarnadóttir and ÞórhildurGrímsdóttir

  2. Research on bones • Sometimes we speak of a certain proportion between the body parts e.g. • The ulna in the forearm of a person equals the length of the persons feet. • The distance between somebody’s neck and the tip of his nose equals the length of his foot. • The golden section can be found in the ratio between the forearm and the hand.
