Abstract
Advances in biological mechanics have progressed hand in hand with advances in imaging since the field’s earliest days. Even the early biological mechanics work of da Vinci could be called a product of advances in the production of architectural images. The architectural image production techniques of the Renaissance were a natural fit for da Vinci’s favored biomechanical models of pulleys and levers.
