This is the main conference of the UK Association for Computational Mechanics offering an annual forum for academics to present their research on developments in computational mechanics, being an ideal opportunity for the fostering of ideas and the establishing of new collaborative research links, helping to build strong research networks within UK and at an international level.
The 2026 event will be hosted by the University of Liverpool. Full details on the conference can be found on the UKACM2026 Conference website.
This can often be of interest to the UK DEM community - one of the 2025 plenary talks was given by Catherine O’Sullivan and one of the 2026 plenary talks will be from Prof Hrvoje Jasak, one of the two original two co-authors of OpenFOAM which is widely used within the community and may be of interest to many.
There is often a strong civil and geotechinal presence in the conference.
