It is my pleasure to solicit nominations for the "Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty". This award, launched in 2012, is given annually to rapidly emerging junior faculty who exemplify the creative use and development of mechanics. The intent of the award is to promote the field of mechanics, especially among young researchers. While interdisciplinary work that bridges mechanics with physics, chemistry, biology, and other disciplines is encouraged, the ideal awardee will demonstrate clear inspiration from mechanics in his/her research.

Hi friends,

I wrote an essay about Sophie Germain and her work in uncovering the role that geometry in plays in the mechanics of plates and shells. I'm excited to share the essay with this community of mechanicians.
