The papers presented at the Fourth 'Meeting of the European Society
of Biomechanics, held in collaboration with the European Society
for Biomaterials in late September 1984 in Davos, Switzerland, are
published herewith. The main idea of the meeting was to gather
together the many disciplines of researchers and clinicians active
and interested in promoting biomechanical knowledge in one
interdisciplinary society: the European Society of Biomechanics. We
feel that the dialog across the disciplines is one of the important
goals of the society, a goal which can be furthered by meetings
like the one in Davos. A surgeon, whether a general, trauma or
orthopaedic surgeon, is normally brought up without relevant
exposure to spe cific technical problems. It therefore is not
surprising that he speaks a different language with respect to
mechanical problems than an engineer. Although a surgeon often has
a feeling for what the solution to a particular problem might be, a
fruitful inter disciplinary collaboration is made difficult by this
scientific language barrier. On the other hand, a physicist,
chemist, engi neer and metallurgist, to name a few, would do well
with a realistic perception of the possibilities and limitations of
surgery and of the relevance of a solution found to the initial
question. Similar problems exist in other areas, e. g. in the field
of sports biomechanics in the dialogue betweeen coach and
researcher. Interdisciplinary misunderstandings have led to quite
some unaecesGBPary frustration in the past.
