This book publishes the work presented at the 1st Olympiad in Engineering Science (OES 2023), an international congress and contest aiming to disseminate and evaluate the recent advances in Engineering Science. The book covers diverse domains of engineering. From Machine Learning applications in Thrust Bearings' behavior to Optimization Techniques for space applications, each chapter presents innovative solutions to complex challenges. The Automatic Control section explores distributed intelligence in watercraft and supervisory control for manufacturing systems. In Data-Driven Engineering, simulations assess pedestrian comfort and model reconstruction. The Diagnostic-Prognostic Methods section delves into unbalance identification and steel truss bridge validation. Finally, Numerical and Analytical Methods in Engineering Mathematics cover everything from boundary integral methods to analytical solutions for fluid flows.

Dimitrios Pavlou is Professor of Mechanics at University of Stavanger in Norway, and Elected Academician of the Norwegian Academy of Technological Sciences. He has had over twenty-five years of teaching and research experience in the fields of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, Fracture Mechanics, Finite and Boundary Elements, Structural Dynamics, Anisotropic Materials, and their applications in Engineering Structures. He is the recipient of the 2022 Hojjat Adeli Award for Innovation in Computing, the most prestigious award in computational mechanics. He is also associate editor of five high-impact journals in civil and aerospace engineering and member of the editorial board of seven more ones. His research goal is to improve the structural safety and reliability of large structures using advanced numerical methods and algorithms. 

Hojjat Adeli is an Academy Professor at The Ohio State University. He has made numerous seminal contributions in artificial intelligence, engineering, and medicine, and authored 16 ground-breaking books. He has received 75 awards and honors including 8 Honorary Doctorates and membership in 5 scientific academies. He is the Editor-in-Chief and Founder of Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering and Integrated Computer-Aided Engineering, a Distinguished Member of ASCE, and a Fellow of AAAS, IEEE, AIMBE, and ANA. 

Dr. José A.F.O. Correia is a Researcher of CONSTRUCT (Institute of R&D in Structures and Construction) and INEGI (Institute of Science and Innovation in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering) of the University of Porto (Portugal), and a Guest Teacher at the Engineering Structures Department of the Civil Engineering and Geosciences Faculty of the Delft University of Technology (Netherlands). Additionally, José A.F.O. Correia has some honorary positions attributed by institutions of world reference: - Adjunct Professor at the Xi'an Jiaotong University (China); - Guest Professor at São Paulo State University (Brazil); among others. His research interests are on structural integrity, fatigue and fracture of engineering materials and structures. 

Nicholas Fantuzzi is Senior Assistant Professor at the University of Bologna. His research topics are the structural theories and on the mechanics of solids. In particular, his researchers are on composite laminated structures and innovative materials. Other research interests are on fracture mechanics and crack propagation and initiation in metallic and composite materials. His research aims to the mathematical modelling through classical finite elements and strong (differential quadrature method) form finite elements, moreover mesh-free and collocation methods are considered. He is Co Editor-in-Chief of the journal Composite Structures and Editorial Board Member in 17 international journals. 

Georgios Georgiou is a Professor at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics and Director of the Oceanography Center, University of Cyprus. He has had over thirty-five years of teaching and research experience in the fields of computational rheology, numerical simulations of viscoelastic flows, numerical solution of PDEs, finite element methods, and computational oceanography. He co-authored two books (Viscous Fluid Flow, CRC Press, 2000; Fluid Mechanics of Viscoplasticity, Springer, 2022) and has served as the guest editor of various international rheological and mathematical journals. In the past 25 years he has been involved as a coordinator or a partner in national and European research projects on subjects ranging from polymer processing and hemodynamic simulations to oceanographic predictions and tsunami and oil spill modelling. 

Knut Erik Teigen Giljarhus is an associate professor at the University of Stavanger, Norway. He holds a PhD from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. His thesis dealt with the development of models for separation of water from oil by means of an electrical field including surface-active agents. After his PhD he worked as a research scientist for SINTEF Energy, primarily with the development of a method for fluid-structure interaction in CO2 pipelines. In 2012 he started working for Lloyd's Register with simulations of gas dispersion, fires and explosions. He started teaching at the University of Stavanger in 2014 and in 2018 he started a full position as an associate professor. His research interests include multiphase flow, wind engineering, aerodynamics and computational fluid dynamics. He is also active in innovation and received the SR-Bank Innovation award in 2022. 

Dr. Yanyan Sha is Associate Professor of Structural Engineering at University of Stavanger in Norway. His research interests include ship collisions with bridge and offshore structures, structural response under blast, impact, and environmental loads, structural health monitoring and damage identification, constitutive behavior of concrete, steel, and FRP materials. He has published more than 60 papers and presented invited talks at international conferences and workshops. He also serves as committee member and reviewer for a number of top journals and conferences.
