YFG-MMS 24
IFToMM's Young Faculty Group is a cross-disciplinary group pursuing IFToMM's mission from within the working core of academia. By summoning young professors and lecturers from all over the world, the group aims at figuring out how to use mechanism and machine science to tackle the academic and technological challenges of the future. The IFToMM Young Faculty Group Symposium on Emerging Fields in Mechanism and Machine Science (IFToMM YFG-MMS) is a single-track, peer-reviewed, symposium designed to foster international networking among young faculty members via a novel format.
The first IFToMM YFG-MMS will be held online from the 19th to the 21th of November 2024, each day from 12:00 to 15:00 CET. The IFToMM YFG-MMS welcomes talks that address topics on mechanism and machine science and engineering, including biomechanical engineering, computational kinematics, engines and power trains, gearing and transmissions, linkages and mechanical controls, micromachines, multibody dynamics, reliability, robotics and mechatronics, rotor dynamics, sustainable energy systems, transportation machinery, tribology, vibrations, education, standardization of terminology, history of mechanism and machine science, and sustainability.
