Course on Biomechanics and Finite Element Analysis

[Soledad Esteban <soledad.esteban@icp.cat>]

Dear Colleagues:

This is the last call for the course "Biomechanics and Finite Elements 
Analysis", which may be of your interest. This course will be held in the 
Museum of the ICP in Sabadell (Barcelona, Spain) on March 5-9 2012. 
Instructors: Dr. Richard Fariña (Universidad de La República, Montevideo) and 
Dr. Jordi Marcé-Nogué (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Barcelona).

The course intends to foster in the attendants the ability to use the 
interdisciplinary approach of biomechanics. There will be an introduction to 
the Finite Element Analysis. This technique consists of a computer model of a 
material or design that is stressed and analyzed for specific results, which 
permits modelling biological structures and understand how they worked and its 
biomechanical limitations.

You can find more information at:  
http://www.icp.cat/index.php/en/activities/courses/biomechanics-fea or writing 
to courses@icp.cat

Places are limited and will be occupied by strict inscription order. 

With best regards

Soledad De Esteban-Trivigno
