Scher, Irving S. | Greenwald, Richard M. | Petrone, Nicola
The International Congress on Ski Trauma and Safety is a biennial meeting of the International Society for Skiing Safety (ISSS), a community of physicians, engi- neers, and researchers from universities and technical institutions, skiing profes- sionals (including instructors, patrollers, and competitors), ski resort managers, lawyers, equipment manufacturers, and the general public that share the common mission of improving snow sport safety. The congress is their opportunity to update and report the state of the art of worldwide activities and researches that are oriented to the reduction of likelihood of injures. The 21st International Congress on Ski Trauma and Safety was held in San Vito di Cadore—Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy, from 8 to 13 March 2015. This meeting was held in conjunction with the Winter School in Sports Engineering of the International Sports Engineering Association, as an opportunity to merge the activities of the members of both associations. This collection of the papers is the 21st Volume of Snow Sport Trauma and Safety (formerly the Skiing Trauma and Safety published by ASTM International). The 16 papers in this volume were presented at the symposium and were subse- quently accepted for publication following rigorous peer review. This publication is supported by ASTM International Committee F27 on Snow Skiing. The editors for this publication were Irving S. Scher, Ph.D., P.E., Principal at Guidance Engineering and Affiliate Scientist in the Applied Biomechanics Laboratory at the University of Washington, Seattle, Washington, USA; Richard M. Greenwald, Ph.D., President of Simbex, Lebanon, New Hampshire, USA, and Adjunct Professor, Thayer School of Engineering, Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire, USA; and Nicola Petrone, Ph.D., Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Padova, Italy.
