    FIRST WORLD CONGRESS OF BIOMECHANICS -- August 31 - September 4, 1990
    University of California in San Diego, LA JOLLA
    Preliminary (final) Programme at a Glance /// Late Registration Details


    Session titles with roman numbers (e.g., Biomechanics of Diarthrodial Joints I)
    denote Special Symposia, the others are usually Free Communications. Various
    sessions are co-sponsored by the American and/or European Societies of Biomecha-
    nics, and/or by the Society of Biomaterials.

    Plenary Sessions take place in the Mandeville Auditorium and Poster Sessions
    in the Price Center; letters A - M denote rooms for parallel Oral Sessions.

    Chair person names are stated in parentheses, e.g., (Caro).

    N.B. Because of the quality of the facsimile program from which this material
    was derived, some author/chairperson names may have been misspelled - HJW.
