Special Issue of ASME Journal Features Papers from Annual Gran... Special Issue of ASME Journal Features Papers from Annual Gran... Special Issue of ASME Journal Features Papers from Annual Grand Challenge Competition A new special issue of the ASME Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, which was published in February 2016, features a series of papers from the sixth and final Grand Challenge Competition to Predict In Vivo Knee Loads. The competition, which launched in 2010, provided researchers with the opportunity to predict in vivo knee contact forces, as measured by instrumented knee replacements, using musculoskeletal modeling methods but without having access to the experimental contact force measurements. Unlike the five previous competitions, which were held during the ASME Summer Bioengineering Conference, the final competition was organized through the ASME Journal of Biomechanical Engineering. The shift to a journal-based competition eliminated the time and financial costs associated with traveling to a conference and made it easier for researchers from around the world to participate, which encouraged broader participation. The special issue features papers from the four teams that completed this years competition, including the competitions winning research paper, Intra-Articular Knee Contact Force Estimation During Walking Using Force-Reaction Elements and Subject-Specific Joint Model, by Yihwan Jun, Cong-Bo Phan, and Seungbum Koo from Chung-Ang University in Korea. The competition was organized by B.J. Fregly at the University of Florida, Darryl DLima at Shiley Center for Orthopedic Research and Education at Scripps Clinic, and Thor Besier at the University of Auckland and was funded by the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering at the National Institutes of Health.
