<strong>2014 Thomas J.R. Hughes Young Investigator Award - Professor Katia Bertoldi</strong><br />
The Executive Committee of the ASME Applied Mechanics Division is pleased to announce and congratulate Professor Professor Katia Bertoldi, Associate Professor, School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University, is the recipient of the 2014 Thomas J. R. Hughes Young Investigator Award.
</p>
<p>
The Young Investigator Award was established in 1998 and renamed the Thomas J.R. Hughes Young Investigator Award in 2008. The Award recognizes special achievements in Applied Mechanics for researchers under the age of 40.
</p>
<p>
Katia received this award for her significant contributions to the theory and simulation of the mechanics of soft materials. In particular, she uses large deformation and instabilities to drastically change the properties of soft materials in response to external stimuli such as applied forces and electric fields. Possible applications include acoustic switches, robots capable of changing shape based on the terrain, and waveguides that are switchable between negative and positive refractive indices.
</p>
<p>
The award, which includes a medal, a plaque, and an honorarium of $1,500, will be presented at the AMD Honors and Awards Banquet, during the ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition, to be held in Montreal, Quebec, November 14-20, 2014.

<br /><strong>2014 Thomas J.R. Hughes Young Investigator Award - Professor Ryan Scott Elliott</strong><br />
The Executive Committee of the ASME Applied Mechanics Division is pleased to announce and congratulate Professor Ryan Scott Elliott, Associate Professor & Russell J. Penrose Faculty Fellow, University of Minnesota, is the second recipient of the 2014 Thomas J. R. Hughes Young Investigator Award.
</p>
<p>
The Young Investigator Award was established in 1998 and renamed the Thomas J.R. Hughes Young Investigator Award in 2008. The Award recognizes special achievements in Applied Mechanics for researchers under the age of 40.
</p>
<p>
Ryan received this award for pioneering work in the area of atomistic simulations of shape memory alloys using modern bifurcation theory and stability to quantify the thermally and stress-induced martensitic transformations in shape memory alloys.
</p>
<p>
The award, which includes a medal, a plaque, and an honorarium of $1,500, will be presented at the AMD Honors and Awards Banquet, during the ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition, to be held in Montreal, Quebec, November 14-20, 2014.

<p>
The 2013 summer meeting of ASME Applied Mechanics Division will be held jointly with the Society of Engineering Science at Brown University, Providence, RI, July 28-31. We are pleased to invite you to a session on Dynamic Stability of Structural Systems, under the symposium on Instability in Solids and Structures that is being organized by the AMD Technical Committee.
</p>
<p>
Participation requires just the submission of an abstract by April 1, 2013 (see details at <a href="http://www.brown.edu/Conference/ses2013/">http://www.brown.edu/Conference/ses2013/</a> .)
</p>
<p>
The stability symposium is listed under Mechanics of Solids and Structures.

</p>
<p>
Please upload even a tentative abstract, as you will have the opportunity in the next several weeks to finalize your contribution. Please let us know by return e-mail (<a href="mailto:trivedid@ge.com">trivedid@ge.com</a>) of your contribution or inability to participate so that you do not get reminders.
</p>
<p>
We look forward to your participation at the SES 50th Annual Technical Meeting and the 2013 ASME-AMD Annual Summer Meeting.

<p class="MsoNormal">
<span>My formal service on the Executive Committee of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Applied Mechanics Division (AMD) has come to an end. I have served as Chair of the Division from <em>2011-2012 </em>and as a committee member for the past five years. It has been an amazing five years. During my term I have had the opportunity to work with an exceptional group of mechanicians who volunteer their time to serve on this committee.<span> </span>I was very lucky to have been able to follow in the footsteps of one of the most dedicated and knowledgeable committee members I know, Tayfun Tezduyar, Rice University.<span> </span>Tayfun is the sage of everything AMD.<span> </span>All my committee members, Ken Liechti <em>(Vice-Chair)</em> of University of Texas, Larry Bergman <em>(Program Chair)</em>, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Huajian Gao <em>(Program Vice-Chair)</em> Brown University and Peters Wriggers <em>(Secretary)</em><span> </span>Leibniz Universität Hannover, have made this a great journey.<span> </span></span>

<p>
<span> </span><span>As I leave the committee I would like to welcome in our newest incoming Executive Committee member, Arun Shukla of the University of Rhode Island. Arun’s qualifications will make him an excellent addition to this committee. </span><span> </span> <em>(See PDF for full message) </em>
