50th Anniversary of the Timoshenko Medal (1957-2007)

As a project to mark the 50th anniversary of the Timoshenko Medal, the ASME International Applied Mechanics Division is attempting to collect acceptance speeches of all past recipients. The speeches collected so far can be found through the link Timoshenko Medal Lectures. The same link also appears in the sidebars of AMN and AMR.

Apparently, the AMD Newsletters started to print the acceptance speeches around 1985. It has been difficult for us to collect earlier speeches. If you have the text of a speech that is missing from the list, please contact Shaofan Li (shaofan@berkeley.edu), the team leader of AMR.
