itsekorjaavien

itsekorjaavien is the genitive plural form of the Finnish adjective itsekorjaava, meaning "self-repairing" or "self-healing." In Finnish, adjectives decline to agree with the nouns they modify, including when the noun is in the genitive case. Therefore,itsekorjaavien functions as a modifier of a genitive plural noun, as in phrases such as "itsekorjaavien materiaalien ominaisuudet" (the properties of the self-healing materials) or "itsekorjaavien järjestelmien etuja" (the advantages of self-repairing systems).

The term is widely used in technical and scientific Finnish to describe materials, systems, or processes capable of repairing themselves after damage. In materials science, self-healing materials may employ mechanisms such as embedded healing agents, microcapsules, vascular networks, or reversible chemical bonds to restore integrity after cracking or wear. In software and systems engineering, self-healing concepts refer to architectures and protocols that detect faults, isolate failures, and recover automatically to maintain operation.

Usage and variation:itsekorjaavien appears in contexts where the associated noun is in genitive plural; related forms include itsekorjaava (base form, singular or plural as appropriate), itsekorjaavat (nominative plural), and other inflected variants likeitsekorjaavaa (partitive). The core meaning remains "self-repairing." The term is primarily found in Finnish-language technical writing and academic discourse discussing autonomous repair capabilities.
