Fatigue and Structural Integrity Group (FSIG-UiS)

Correia won the first Philo Mechanicus Award

The Philo Mechanicus Award was first established by COTech – University of Stavanger to distinguish personalities with scientific and academic careers that have earned recognition from their peers worldwide.

Dimitrios Pavlou, the chairman of the Computational Mechanics and Structural Integrity Session, bestowed to José A.F.O. Correia the award. The ceremony took place at University of Stavanger, Norway.

The prize recognizes an individual who has made significant contributions to the field through practice, research, teaching and/or outstanding leadership. Recently, the award began to be sponsored by the Alexandria Engineering Journal and Elsevier. The selection process will be carried out by the award committee chaired by UiS, members of the AEJ journal and invited members nominated by UiS, who will indicate the winners every year.

Philo Mechanicus (Latin for "Philo the Engineer"), was an ancient Greek engineer, physicist and writer on mechanics, who lived during the latter half of the 3rd century BC. Philo was the author of a large work, the Syntaxis, which contained the following sections:

• General mathematics;
• Mechanics;
• Harbour Construction;
• Siege Engine Construction;
• Pneumatics;
• Automatons;
• Preparations for Seiges;
• Siegecraft

Formal presentation of the award, which consists of a trophy/medal, a certificate, and maybe a travel offer to visit Stavanger, may take place at the Computational Mechanics and Structural Integrity Session organized by COTech (Computational Methods & Ocean Technology) conference.

Research award to Sudath Siriwardane

Siriwardane received the award for his contributions to the International Journal of Structural Integrity. The prize winners were announced on 22 December 2023.

Siriwardane is professor of construction engineering at the Department of Mechanical and Structural Engineering and Materials Science. He works particularly with modeling of fatigue damage and stress on large structures.

Congratulations on the award!
