International Society of Biomechanics
WORKING GROUP ON FUNCTIONAL FOOTWEAR
SYMPOSIUM on FOOTWEAR BIOMECHANICS
----------------------------------
June 28-30, 1995
Deutsche Sporthochschule, Cologne, Germany
The second Symposium of the International Society of Biomechanics
Working Group on Functional Footwear will be held at the Deutsche
Sporthochschule, Cologne, Germany, from June 28-30, 1995. Only a
brief outline of the meeting plan is included here. More detailed
information is available on request.
************************************************** ****************
* THE ADIDAS PRIZE FOR FOOTWEAR RESEARCH *
************************************************** ****************
A cash prize of US $1000 and a certificate will be awarded to the
authors of the original paper which, in the view of the organising
committee, makes the most significant contribution to footwear
biomechanics research.
************************************************** ****************
The primary aim of the ISB Working Group is to provide a forum for
those interested in biomechanical aspects of clinical, athletic and
other kinds of functional footwear. The Symposium will build on the
successful format of the first Symposium, with extended seminar
presentations by invited speakers and opportunities for extended
discussion of important issues in footwear biomechanics. Approx-
imately half of the Symposium will be devoted to original papers.
The Symposium is intended to fit conveniently into the schedules
of those attending the ISB Congress in Jyvaskyla, Finland (July
2nd - 6th) Flight are available from Cologne, Duesseldorf or
Hamburg to Helsinki.
