Welcome to MECHANIKA-2022

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

On behalf of the Organizing Committee it is our great pleasure to announce that Kaunas University of Technology in cooperation with Lithuanian Academy of Sciences, IFToMM National Committee of Lithuania and Baltic Association of Mechanical Engineering cordially invite you to attend the 26th International Conference “Mechanika-2022”, the purpose of which is the discussion of a wide range of issues in the mechanical engineering and mechatronics. The 26th International Conference “Mechanika-2022” is scheduled for 20 May, 2022.

We invite the representatives from the academia, research institutions, government and industry to present the latest scientific and technological research results as well as discuss current needs and future trends in R&D, addressing the issues of cooperation, the strategy and quality of undergraduate and postgraduate education in the field of mechanical engineering and mechatronics .

Due to the corona virus (COVID-19), which threatens many countries in the world, all presentations will be made online via video conferencing.

Oral presentations are welcome for the sessions. This year only Abstracts will be published in the Proceedings, and articles related with presentations and that will meet the requirements of the ISI-indexed journal “Mechanika” will be published in this journal with a 50% discount.

We look forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones. We are doing our the best to let you feel pleasant and friendly atmosphere before, during and after the Conference.
