International scientific conference on mechanics

“THE SEVENTH POLYAKHOV’S READING”

Conference history dates back to 1997, when, under the name "Polyakhov’s reading" it was first held as the All-Russian conference in memory of the outstanding scientist, Professor N.N.Polyakhov (1906-1987), who left a bright trace in the history of science. The conference attracted wide attention of Russian and foreign scientists, involved in problems of modern mechanics. Since 2003, "Polyakhov’s reading" acquired the status of an international conference and traditionally held in St. Petersburg once in three years. The conference topic covers almost all the fundamental areas of modern mechanics and continues to expand in line with the development of science. There are new sections on current research directions. This feature of the conference is associated with broad interests of Professor N.N. Polyakhov.
