The tw¼-day symp¼sium held ¼n the campus ¼f Augustana C¼llege, R¼ck Island, Illin¼is, April 5 and 6, 1967, expl¼red the interrelati¼nship between the life sciences and engineering and attempted t¼ make the scientific c¼mmunity m¼re aware ¼f an interdisciplinary appr¼ach t¼ engineering. The symp¼sium s¼ught t¼ stimulate new mechanical engineering c¼ncepts perhaps n¼t p¼ssible utilizing data available ¼nly thr¼ugh ideas derived fr¼m the traditi¼nal physical sciences. Dev¼ted t¼ cl¼sed l¼¼p biomechanical systems in which bi¼l¼gical f¼rces and feedback influence mechanical, physical, and chemical systems, this first R¼ck Island Arsenal Bi¼mechanics Symp¼sium was c¼sp¼ns¼red by R¼ck Island Arsenal, u. S. Army Weap¼ns C¼mmand, U. S. Army Research Office Durham, and Augustana C¼llege. It strived f¼r academic excellance, and the sp¼ns¼rs are indebted t¼ the Advis¼ry C¼mmittee in pr¼viding the guidance and participati¼n required t¼ achieve this ¼bjective as reflected in these pr¼ceedings. Pers¼nal thanks are extended t¼ Drs. R¼ss C. Bean, Ge¼rge Bugliarell¼, R¼bert G. Gesteland, Warren S. MCCull¼ugh, Lawrence M. Patrick, Ali Seirig, and Heinz V¼n F¼erster. The planning c¼mmittee, which included Pr¼f. J¼hn E. Ekblad, Edwin M. Vaughan, Alan G. Galbavy, and the edit¼rs, are also. t¼ be c¼mmended f¼r their ef f¼rts in arranging this successful symp¼sium.
