YTI and CompMechLab Presents CompMechWorkshop 2008

Mikkeli University of Applied Sciences Research Centre YTI and St. Petersburg State Polytechnical University Computational Mechanics Laboratory (CompMechLab) announced the 3rd Mikkeli Computational Mechanics Workshop. The event takes place in Mikkeli, Finland on August 6-8, 2008.

The aim of the workshop is to bring together mechanical simulation experts from all over the world in order to solve industrial engineering problems, share experiences, exchange information, build networks and to spend a lovely week during the summer at the very heart of the country of a thousand lakes.

Companies will have an opportunity to put forward their own engineering problems for the workshop. These simulation problems will then be solved by CompMechLab computing experts. Please note that the engineering problems should be specified to YTI some months prior to the workshop if possible, in order to have them solved in time for the workshop. CompMechLab will solve the problems and the solutions will then be presented at the workshop. However companies will also be able to specify problems during the workshop; in which case the simulation will be done either at the workshop or completed afterwards at CompMechLab, timeframes will depend on the problem complexity.

The workshop program will consist of six hours each day involving FE simulation work and simulation problems discussions with the industry people, the results presentations and will end with plenary session lectures in Friday. The social program features a dinner cruise to Lake Saimaa.
