Professor Janusz Orkisz’s 90th Jubilee

On April 28, 2025, at Cracow University of Technology, a joint meeting of the Section of Computational Methods of the Committee on Mechanics of the Polish Academy of Sciences and the Section of Structural and Material Mechanics of the Committee on Civil and Water Engineering of the Polish Academy of Sciences was held.

The meeting was combined with the celebration of the 90th birthday of Prof. Janusz Orkisz, a distinguished scientist in the field of computational mechanics, long-standing academic teacher, and a mentor to many generations of engineers and researchers. Prof. Orkisz has made significant contributions to the development of numerical methods and their applications in mechanics.

On behalf of the Polish Section of GAMM, Prof. Mieczysław Kuczma, Chair of PSGAMM presented a formal address to Prof. Orkisz, expressing appreciation and recognition of his scientific achievements and lifelong dedication to the academic community.

PUBLIC LECTURE - Professor Peter Wriggers

Public lecture of the city of Poznań and Poznań University of Technology


Numerical Simulations in Engineering and Applied Sciences


Prof. Peter Wriggers, Leibniz University Hannover

Abstract
Numerical simulations in engineering and science play a vital role in modern research and problem-solving. These computational techniques leverage mathematical models and algorithms to replicate complex real-world phenomena, enabling scientists and engineers to explore, analyze, and optimize systems and processes across a wide range of disciplines. From fluid dynamics and structural analysis to climate modeling and biomedical applications, numerical simulations provide insights, predictions, and design solutions that are often unattainable through traditional experimentation alone. This lecture highlights the increasing reliance on numerical simulations, their wide-reaching applications, and their potential to advance knowledge and innovation in the fields of engineering and science.

Professor J. Tinsley Oden, August 27, 2023

prof.Oden_v3.png
It is with sorrow that we convey the sad news of the death of Professor J. Tinsley Oden on 27th August 2023 at the age of 86, an outstanding scientist and precursor in the field of mathematical modeling and numerical methods in mechanics and other sciences — one of the founding fathers of computational science and engineering. His novel ideas and research have inspired many of us.

Professor Oden was active and persistent to the end. Not so long ago he delivered a plenary lecture at the GAMM 2018 Meeting in Munich.

A great man passed away, whose works and ideas will remain and serve our community for a long time to come.

We join in grief with His Family and Relatives.
