Thanks for this information. I really meant recognition from wider society which has indirectly benefitted from his work, i.e. daily newspapers which carry obituaries for people from a wide range of backgrounds.

Not sure if the International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering is from UK. According to the journal's home page soon will be published an obituary in that journal. The advertise can be seen <a href="http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/1430/home" target="_blank">here.</a>

My Dear Friend

<p>
this is definitely not the first time that someone is not getting any recognision even after his death. There are many examples in the UK, remember Dugdale, Eshelby, Irwin and so many others.

Sad indeed. Also sad is the lack of recognition for this man who was one of the leading figures in the development and use of the FEM for engineering; he was certainly seen as such in the UK and Europe. He was given a CBE (a UK honour dished out by the Queen/Government) a while back and more importantly was a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS), no mean feat for an engineer. So far I have not seen an obituary in a UK paper. Anyone else seen one? We lack strong voices to publicise the importance of (some of?) what we do and the apparent absence of a wider recognition of this man's work is evidence for this, I think.
