Royal Society of Canada - Medal in honour of Michael P. Païdoussis
This post is meant to bring the following announcement of the Royal Society of Canada to the attention of the ASME Applied Mechanics community.
The Royal Society of Canada is delighted to announce the establishment of a medal in honour of Michael P. Païdoussis, who has made important contributions in the field of applied mechanics, while also serving as a mentor and teacher to generations of scholars in Canada. The Michael P. Païdoussis Medal will recognize outstanding research, education and leadership in applied mechanics, including solid continuum mechanics, fluid mechanics, and fluid-structure interaction. Nominees from any country will be considered. Each candidate will be proposed by a nominator with a nomination letter (maximum three pages) together with three reference letters (maximum two pages each). The nominator must be a member of a national (of any country) or international academy, or a member of a national committee for IUTAM, while there are no restrictions for the reference letters. In addition to the nomination letter and reference letters, the nomination package must include an updated CV (maximum five pages), a complete publication list (no page limit) and the list of candidate’s best ten publications related to applied mechanics. The three categories of research, education and leadership (including service to the scientific community, e.g. through professional organizations, conference organization and journal editorship) will have equal weight in the selection process and are to be clearly and explicitly addressed in the nomination materials. The nomination package, in the form of a single PDF file, should be sent by email to: nominations@rsc-src.ca.
The deadline for nominations is 31 March 2022. The inaugural winner of the Michael P. Païdoussis Medal will be announced in September of 2022. The Royal Society of Canada’s 2022 Award Ceremony will be held on Friday, November 25.
