معرفی
Heikki Remes serves as Associate Professor in the Department of Energy and Mechanical Engineering at Aalto University's School of Engineering, where he investigates high-performance steel structures for marine environments with emphasis on lightweight ship designs using advanced materials and manufacturing techniques.
His research integrates fundamental fatigue and fracture mechanics with practical structural challenges, spanning from crystal-level material behavior to continuum-scale modeling. Key focus areas include welded joint integrity, additive manufacturing defects, and computational analysis of marine structures under extreme conditions.
Recent publications reveal strong trends in fatigue assessment methodologies for complex welded geometries, experimental validation of distortion effects, and AI-enhanced damage prediction systems, reflecting his commitment to bridging theoretical mechanics with shipbuilding applications.
