Re: Force needed to crush an average human into paste?
Area of Cylinder = 2*pi*r(r+h) = 1.938 m^2 This is the cylinder's total area, so you are placing your victim in a pressure chamber, not dropping a rock on it/slamming it with a vehicle/letting it fall from a building. May sound stupid but I think it is better to point it out. :P I would calculate t...

Re: Force needed to crush an average human into paste?
According to the CDC the Average Male Waist Circumference (US) = 39.7 inches = 1.008 meters Circumference = 2*pi*r; r = C/(2*pi) Average Male Radius = .1604 meters Area of Cylinder = 2*pi*r(r+h) = 1.938 m^2 force = pressure * area = (177 MPa)(1.938 m^2) = 343 x 10^6 N So if a human were a cylinder o...

Re: Force needed to crush an average human into paste?
Thank you for the link.
Okay so 1800 kg/cm^2 ~ 177 MPa.
Since pressure = force / area; force = pressure * area.
If we say that a human is a cylinder then area = 2*pi*r(r+h).
Average Human Height (US) = 1.763 meters. But what would the radius be?

Force needed to crush an average human into paste?
I'm writing a story. How would I go about calculating this?
