The ELEVENTH ANNUAL SYMPOSIUM on
COMPUTATIONAL METHODS IN ORTHOPAEDIC BIOMECHANICS
February 1st, 2003
Tulane University Campus
New Orleans, Louisiana
Call for abstracts:
Eleventh Annual Symposium on COMPUTATIONAL METHODS IN ORTHOPAEDIC BIOMECHANICS
Submission Deadline - December 13th, 2002
Dear Colleagues:
This is the first announcement and call for abstracts for the Eleventh
Annual Symposium on Computational Methods in Orthopaedic Biomechanics (the
"pre-ORS" meeting) in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Location and Registration:
The pre-ORS symposium will be held on Saturday, February 1, 2003 on the
Tulane University campus, which is a short streetcar ride from the French
Quarter and the main site of the ORS meeting. Registration will begin at 8
a.m., with a single session format running through the afternoon.
Pre-registration for the meeting will be available in early November at the
meeting web site: http://www.bmen.tulane.edu/~preors/index.htm.
Registration and participation is free of charge, but we encourage
registration so we can plan ahead.
Objectives:
Formally, the objectives of the symposium are to present current thinking
on the impact of computer assisted techniques in the field of orthopaedic
biomechanics, to educate scientist and researchers in the use of these
techniques, and to promote the use of computer technology in biomechanical
research. In keeping with the tradition of this symposium, presentation of
research is limited to "junior" researchers (either graduate students or
PhDs within five years of their degree) who are actively involved in
computational work of any nature related to orthopaedics. Typical issues
that have been discussed in the past include: computer modeling of whole
bones from quantitative computed tomography scans; finite element
formulation and implementation of non-linear constitutive models for soft
tissues; development and numerical behavior of algorithms for simulation of
bone remodeling; computer modeling of bone-implant systems; contact
problems; micro-mechanical modeling of tissues; and motion/dynamic analysis
of the skeleton.
Abstracts:
Abstracts are requested for all areas of computational research of interest
to the general orthopaedic biomechanics community. As in the past, this
meeting is a nonarchival forum for graduate students and postdocs to
present their ongoing research. Presentations are expected to be given by
the student/postdoc/young investigator primarily responsible for the research.
Abstract Format:
The abstract length is not to exceed one page and should be submitted via
email as attachments in .pdf format or as an MS Word document to
preors@Tulane.edu. There are no other format requirements. The deadline for
abstracts is December 13, 2002. By submitting an abstract, it is understood
that you will present your work in person if your abstract is accepted, and
that this work is not being presented at the Orthopaedic Research Society.
Any questions concerning abstract submission can be sent to the same e-mail
address.
Social Program:
In keeping with another important tradition, there will be a conference
get-together after the symposium.

Venue: Tulane University campus New Orleans, Louisiana
