Tiivistelmä	Geomechanical modeling is the numerical simulation of stress and deformation in rock masses, integrating rock properties, pressure conditions, and geometric constraints. Rooted in classical mechanics (Coulomb, Mohr) but modernized by finite element and finite difference methods, this approach is essential for well integrity assessment, reservoir compaction prediction, and stability evaluation of slopes and excavations. Models link subsurface geology to rock mechanical behavior.	Well log analysis is the systematic examination of measurements recorded by instruments lowered into a borehole to characterize subsurface lithology, fluid content, and petrophysical properties. Originating in the 1940s, this method has become indispensable for petroleum exploration, groundwater assessment, and engineering geology. Well logs provide direct depth-correlated data that anchor interpretation of seismic surveys and constrain reservoir models.
