Abstract

Collaboration across diverse fields – including civil engineering, mechanical engineering and fluid dynamics – as well as fostering partnerships between industry and academia are the key elements of the ethos of the Finnish Me- chanics Days. The primary objective of the conference is to stimulate aca- demic research and its alignment with industrial development in the variety of mechanics disciplines, from solid and soil mechanics to fluid dynamics. The conference offers a gathering point for researchers, educators, engineers and other professionals to come together for connecting, engaging in discussions and exchanging knowledge. Throughout its history, the Finnish Mechanics Days has consistently ful- filled its mission of bringing together individuals involved in mechanics, from different perspectives: theoretical, computational and experimental; aca- demic and industrial; from atomistic scales to the macro-scale. This enduring tradition continues to provide a vital forum for advancing the field of me- chanics in Finland, Europe and beyond. This time, a special emphasis in the discussions is put on considering the possible advancements of artificial intelligence and the related technologies within the field of mechanics. The Finnish Mechanics Days conference had its inaugural edition in Oulu in 1982 and has continued as a triennial event since then, except for the post- ponement caused by the global pandemic in 2021. After the first conference, the sequence of locations, i.e., university cities, have been Tampere (1985), Espoo (1988), Lappeenranta (1991), Jyväskylä (1994), Oulu (1997), Tampere (2000), Espoo (2003), Lappeenranta (2006), Jyväskylä (2009), Oulu (2012), Tampere (2015), Helsinki (2018) and once again Lappeenranta (2022). The Finnish National Committee of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, established in 1952 and representing Finland in the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM), is responsible for the contin- uation of the conference series by supporting the local organizing unit, a Finnish university or research institute. From the beginning, this conference series has served as a vital platform for exploring mechanics, covering solids, soils, rocks and fluids. The conference topics have covered a wide range of sub-fields of science and engineering involving mechanics, encompassing structural analysis, mechanics of materials, fracture mechanics, fatigue, thermomechanics, micromechanics, contact mechanics, multibody dynamics, mechatronics, fluid dynamics, fluid-structure interaction, numerical methods and the design of structures and machines, as well as the related industrial and medical applications. Once again, the conference program and the book of abstract confirm the topical diversity and invite us to learn, discover and enjoy – we wish you welcome to the conference!
