The membership of IACM (International Association for Computational Mechanics) is invited to submit nominations for the IACM awards. The IACM awards are listed below. Each nomination should be submitted on one page in pdf format with 1. the name of the nominee, including a full address and email address 2. the name of the award for which the nominee is being nominated 3. the name and email address of the nominator 3. a short description of the major accomplishments of the nominee (not to exceed one page including above) A description of the IACM awards is given below. Past winners of awards are available on the IACM webpage www.iacm.info . The nomination must be submitted by November 9, 2007 by email to the following address [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ted Belytschko Chair Honors Committee The IACM Congress Medal (Gauss-Newton Medal) is the highest award given by IACM. It honors individuals who have made outstanding, sustained contributions in the field of computational mechanics generally over periods representing substantial portions of their professional careers. The medal is bronze and carries the images of Newton and Gauss in recognition of the synergy between mathematics, numerical analysis, and mathematical modeling of physical events that underpin much of the broad field of computational mechanics. The IACM Award is given in recognition of outstanding and sustained contributions to the broad field of computational mechanics. These contributions shall generally be in the form of important research results which significantly advance the understanding of theories and methods impacting computational mechanics, but special individual contributions in leadership and administration, industrial applications, and engineering analysis that advance computational mechanics shall also represent accomplishments worthy of recognition. The IACM Award for Computational Mechanics will be given for contributions to traditional areas, such as computational structural mechanics and computational fluid dynamics, but may also be given to recognize contributions outside these specific areas. For example, the Award may be given in recognition of accomplishments in software development, scientific computing, research contributions in computational electromagnetics, semi-conductor device simulation, biomechanics or other areas not traditionally embraced by computational structural mechanics and fluid dynamics but which have general applicability to computational mechanics. The IACM Award for Young Investigators in Computational Mechanics recognizes outstanding accomplishments, particularly outstanding published papers, by researchers 40 or younger. Eligibility requires that the nominee not turn 41 in the year the award is presented. The Fellows Award recognized individuals with a distinguished record of research, accomplishment and publication in areas of computational mechanics and demonstrated support of the IACM through membership and participation in the Association, its meetings and activities.

He was 75 years old. Gene returned home to Stanford recently from a trip to Hong Kong. He was planning to leave again Tuesday on another trip, this one to Zurich where the ETH was to honor him with a special degree. Instead, Sunday night he went to the emergency room because he was "feeling lousy". On Tuesday, he was found to have AML, acute myelogenous leukemia, a form of cancer that affects the white blood cells. This is a potentially curable disease and he was expecting to begin chemotherapy today. But serious complications developed suddenly over night. I was able to see Gene for an hour last night and he was in reasonably good spirits. Mike Saunders was trying to get Gene's laptop to use dial-up over the hospital's phone system because Gene said he was a couple of days behind on his email. I was planning to get a wireless card for his machine today. None of us had any idea how suddenly the situation would worsen. The Stanford iCME students have created a memorial blog at http://genehgolub.blogspot.com . Our community has lost its foremost member. He was a valued colleague and friend. Goodbye, Gene. -- Cleve Moler From sonzogni en intec.unl.edu.ar Tue Nov 20 16:23:00 2007 From: sonzogni en intec.unl.edu.ar (Victorio Sonzogni) Date: Tue Nov 20 16:24:39 2007 Subject: [NotiAMCA] CST2008 Athens Call for Papers & Young Researcher Best Paper Prize Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Dear Victorio The Ninth International Conference on Computational Structures Technology venue: Athens, Greece date: 2-5 September 2008 Please note that the call for papers for the above conferences closes on the 1st December and abstracts may be submitted via the conference website: http://www.civil-comp.com/conf/ Young Researcher Best Paper Competition: To encourage young researchers to attend the conference a 1000 Euro Young Researcher Best Paper Prize will be awarded to the best paper presented at the conference.
