By presenting these individuals with tokens of excellence, the Society brings the character and importance of the engineer’s work to the attention of the public. Accordingly, it is one of the major purposes of the Society to recognize engineering excellence through the Honors and Awards Program and to provide the forum for their exposition. Society Honors and Awards recognize a wide variety of accomplish- ments. Some awards are based on contributions to engineering litera- ture; others recognize general achievements in the advancement of engineering. Some are awarded for outstanding accomplishments by a young engineer beginning a career, others for distinguished service throughout a lifetime. Still others recognize contributions by outstanding Student Members. Honors and Awards are bestowed by authority of the Board of Governors, and certificates are signed by the President and Executive Director. The Honors and Awards Program is funded through the ASME Foundation by individual awards and endowment funds, not through member dues. The pages that follow describe all Society Honors and Awards presented in 2016 and give information about the recipients. Many awards were presented

  • Prof. James Norman Goodier
    Professor James Norman Goodier (1905 – 1969) See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_N._Goodier Applied Mechanics Stanford University Biography from Wikipedia: James Norman Goodier (October 17, 1905 – November 5, 1969) was professor of applied mechanics at Stanford University known for his work in elasticity and plastic deformation. He was born in Preston, Lancashire, England and studied engineering at Cambridge University. He was awarded a Commonwealth Fund Fellowship which enabled him to continue his studies at the University of Michigan where he earned his doctorate in 1931 under the direction of Stephen Timoshenko with a dissertation titled Compression of Rectangular Blocks, and the Bending of Beams by Nonlinear Distributions of Bending Forces. Timoshenko moved to Stanford University in 1936 and Goodier eventually succeeded him there. He was co-author of two classic books in this field: "Theory of Elasticity," with Timoshenko, 1951; and "Elasticity and Plasticity," with P. G. Hodge, Jr., 1958 and was awarded the Timoshenko Medal by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers in 1961. He was chairman of the Applied Mechanics Division of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers 1945-46, and was elected Fellow of that Society in 1964. He had more than fifty doctoral students, one of whom was George F. Carrier. Memorial Resolution, Stanford University by Erastus H. Lee, Miklos Hetenyi and Harold C. Schmidt: Norman Goodier died on Wednesday, November 5, 1969 after a brief illness. He was born on October 17, 1905, in Preston, Lancashire, England where he attended municipal schools and won scholarships to study at Cambridge University. In 1927 he was awarded the B.A.

  • Physical Gold Custody Meets the Bitcoin Blockchain
    PHYSICAL GOLD CUSTODY MEETS THE BITCOIN BLOCKCHAIN Investment Grade Gold, Allocated in Swiss Vaults, & Secured Using Bitcoin. Introduction 3 Gold in the 21st Century 5 DGLD Key Characteristics 6 The Technology Stack 7 Creations & Redemptions 9 Storage and Verification 9 Fees 10 Disclaimer: This whitepaper provides an overview on the commercial scope and the underlying technology of the DGLD Project. The information shared in this whitepaper is not all- encompassing or comprehensive and the whitepaper does not in any way intend to create or put into implicit effect any elements of a contractual relationship. All rights and duties of all involved parties are exclusively defined by the General Terms and Conditions (T&Cs) available here: https://dgld.ch/assets/190911-dgld-general-terms- conditions-1.0.pdf. 2. Introduction Techniques for investing in gold have become increasingly digital. As a result, gold investment is now more dependent on institutions and intermediaries than ever before. This is problematic as gold is often seen to derive its value as a hedge against systemic failure. Gold is an inefficient asset, stuck somewhere between an unusable store of value and a heavily intermediated investment. Therefore, gold, the ultimate physical bearer asset, requires a digitally disintermediated format to rekindle its role as an independent store of wealth and to be useful in today’s digital society. Bitcoin, the ultimate digital bearer asset, and blockchain technology can provide the network rails and the technology for gold to maintain the independence of physical gold, while benefiting from the value and benefits of digitization. In this paper we introduce DGLD, a digital bearer asset that is 100% backed by physical gold.

  • Ambrose Swasey 1846-1937
    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS VOLUME XXII FIRST MEMOIR BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF AMBROSE SWASEY 1846-1937 BY DAYTON C. MTLLER PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, 1940 AMBROSE SWASEY 1846-1937 BY DAYTON C. MILLER Ambrose Swasey, engineer, scientist, philanthropist, was born in Exeter, New Hampshire, on December 19, 1846; he died at the old homestead on the farm where he was born on June 15, 1937, aged 90 years and 6 months. A group of pioneers, four hundred in number, including four non-conformist clergymen, came from old England to New England in the spring of 1629. John Swasey, founder of the Swasey family in America, and his two sons, Joseph and John, Jr., presumably were members of this group and they settled in Salem, Massachusetts.1 The Governor of Salem, John Endecott, in this time of religious intolerance, showed great bigotry and harshness and expelled all Baptists, Episcopalians, and Quakers. John Swasey, being of the latter faith, was obliged to leave, about 1650, going to Satauket and later to Southold on Long Island. Joseph Swasey (second generation) the eldest son of John Swasey, remained in Salem and followed the humble oc- cupation of fisherman. Joseph was one of the charter members of the first church organized in Salem, in 1629, this being the first Congregational Church in America. This Joseph Swasey had a son named Joseph (third generation) born in 1653 in Salem. The further line of descent is: Joseph, born in 1685, in Salem; Ebenezer, born in 1727, in Old Newbury, Massachusetts; Ebenezer, born in 1758, in Old Newbury; Nathaniel, born in 1800, in Exeter, New Hampshire.

    APPENDIX A WSU 2014-19 STRATEGIC PLAN Appendix A: WSU Strategic Plan 2014-15 Strategic Plan 2014-2019 President Elson S. Floyd, Ph.D. Strategic Plan 2014-2019 Introduction The 2014-19 strategic plan builds on the previous five-year plan, recognizing the core values and broad mission of Washington State University. Goals and strategies were developed to achieve significant progress toward WSU’s aspiration of becoming one of the nation’s leading land-grant universities, preeminent in research and discovery, teaching, and engagement. The plan emphasizes the institution’s unique role as an accessible, approachable research institution that provides opportunities to an especially broad array of students while serving Washington state’s broad portfolio of social and economic needs. While providing exceptional leadership in traditional land-grant disciplines, Washington State University adds value as an integrative partner for problem solving due to its innovative focus on applications and its breadth of program excellence. The plan explicitly recognizes the dramatic changes in public funding that have occurred over the duration of the previous strategic plan, along with the need for greater institutional nimbleness, openness, and entrepreneurial activity that diversifies the University’s funding portfolio. In addition, the plan reaffirms WSU’s land-grant mission by focusing greater attention system-wide on increasing access to educational opportunity, responding to the needs of Washington state through research, instruction, and outreach, and contributing to economic development and public policy. While the new plan retains the four key themes of the previous plan, its two central foci include offering a truly transformative educational experience to undergraduate and graduate students and accelerating the development of a preeminent research portfolio.
