I am grateful to follow the footsteps of a group of dedicated past chairs including A.M. Rajendran of University of Mississippi, Mohammed Zikry of North Carolina State University, Vikas Prakash of Case Western Reserve University, Julie Chen of University of Massachusetts, Lowell, and Karl Jacob of Georgia Tech. It has been a distinct pleasure to work with my current committee members including George Z. Voyiadjis (vice-Chair) of Louisiana State University , Xi Chen (Honors and Awards Chair) of Columbia University, Valeria La Saponara (Program Chair) of University of California - Davis, and Yong Zhu (Secretary and Treasurer) of North Carolina Junlan Wang, Division Chair State University. Thank you all for the support, companion and friendship. The Materials Division has gone through a very active and successful year in 2014-2015 with the following highlights: McMat 2015: Following a fine tradition between the ASME Applied Mechanics Division and Materials Division, the two divisions hold joint Mechanics and Materials (McMat) summer meetings every four years with the leadership alternating between AMD and MD. This year, the Materials Division took the leadership role to organize the McMat 2015 which took place from June 29-July 1, 2015 in Seattle, WA. Thanks to the diligent effort of all the symposium organizers and the local organizing committee members, the conference was a great success with over 440 presentations in 25 symposia, 79 technical sessions including three plenary speakers - Satya Atluri of University of California, Irvine, Nancy Sottos of University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Zhigang Suo of Harvard University at the morning plenary sessions and one distinguished dinner speaker - Mark D. Jenks of the Boeing Company at the University of Washington (UW) hosted banquet. Special thanks to the Boeing Company, the University of Washington College of Engineering (in particular, the Department of Mechanical Engineering, and the William E. Boeing Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics) for the financial sponsorship of the UW Banquet, and the National Science Foundation for providing travel support to an elite group of graduate students, postdocs and community college instructors. The conference website can be found at: http://www.asmeconferences.org/mcmat2015. 2 IMECE: The Materials Division continues to play active roles in the annual ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition (IMECE), largely owing to the hard work of all the Technical Committees and the Program Chairs. At the upcoming IMECE 2015 in Houston, we are sponsoring/co-sponsoring 33 symposia with a total of 70 technical sessions. While the MD track “Materials: Genetics to Structures” (thanks to the track chairs Ram Mohan of North Carolina A&T State University and Valeria La Saponara of UC Davis) serves as the hub for many of the materials centric symposia, a large number of the MD symposia are co-sponsored with other divisions such as Applied Mechanics, Energy, and listed under several different tracks such as Track 1, 2, 3, 7, 12 and 13. Journals: The Materials Division is the sole sponsor of the ASME Journal of Engineering Materials and Technology (JEMT). Under the leadership of the current Editor-in-Chief Mohammed Zikry of North Carolina State University and a group of dedicated Associate Editors, the journal continues to do very well. In addition, together with ASME Bioengineering Division, ASME Heat Transfer Division, and the ASME Fluids Engineering Division, the Materials Division serves on the Advisory Board to manage the relatively young multidisciplinary journal (launched in Nov. 2010) - ASME Journal on Nanotechnology in Engineering and Medicine (JNEM). Under the excellent leadership of the current journal Editor-in-Chief Boris Khusid of New Jersey Institute of Technology, JNEM has been flourishing over the past five years. Members are encouraged to submit your high quality works to both journals. The JEMT website can be found at: http://materialstechnology.asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/journal.aspx The JNEM website can be found at: http://nanoengineeringmedical.asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/journal.aspx Awards: The Materials Division is proud to be the home of several distinguished ASME awards both at the society level including the Sia Nemat-Nasser Early Career Award and the Nadai Medal, and at the division level including the ORR “JEMT” Best Paper Award and ORR Early Career Award. Each year, a rigorous nomination and evaluation process is taken to select the most deserving candidate for each award. The following outstanding individuals received the awards and recognitions at IMECE 2014 in Montreal, Canada: Prof. L. Cate Brinson of Northwestern University received the Nadai Medal. Prof. Kevin T. Turner of the University of Pennsylvania received the Sia Nemat- Nasser Early Career Award. Prof. Jaafar El-Awady of Johns Hopkins University received the Orr Early Career Award. Prof. Hareesh V. Tippur and graduate student Robert W. Bedsole of Auburn University received the ORR “JEMT” Best Paper Award. 3 The following outstanding individuals will be recognized at IMECE 2015 in Houston, TX: Prof. Huajian Gao of Brown University will receive the Nadai Medal. Prof. Yong Zhu of North Carolina State University will receive the Sia Nemat-Nasser Early Career Award. Prof. Michael D. Sangid of Purdue University will receive the Orr Early Career Award. Prof. Jaehyung Ju and graduate students Jaehong Lee, Kwangwon Kim of University of North Texas and Prof. Doo-Man Kim of Korea Aerospace University will receive the ORR “JEMT” Best Paper award. The Nadai, Sia Nemat-Nasser and Orr award lectures and the Materials Division receptions are scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 18 at the IMECE in Houston which everyone is welcome to attend. Technical Committees: The Materials Division has eight Technical Committees who have been essential in organizing the many symposia at the annual IMECE and McMat. The committees are encouraged to remain active and continue to grow the scope and quality of our technical activities and engage new members. Many individuals worked hard during my term as the Division Chair who deserve a special mention. The Executive Committee Secretary Yong Zhu did a great job putting together this newsletter. Jacinta McComie from the ASME headquarters has been providing support to Materials Division for many years, serving as the interface between the Executive Committee and ASME headquarters. Stacy Cooper of ASME has been a big help on taking care of the technical sessions at IMECE. While organizing the McMat 2015 conference, I had great pleasure working with Mary Jakubowski from ASME whose rich experience in technical meeting planning and prompt response to my non-stopping requests made the whole process much smooth and enjoyable. Finally, I would like to extend my warm welcome to the incoming Executive Committee member Markus Buehler of Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Member-at-Large Toshio Nakamura of the State University of New York – Stony Brook. Markus and Toshio’s excellent qualifications will make them great additions to the executive committee. I will leave my post as the Division Chair after IMECE 2015 with much contentment and confidence that the Materials Division will continue to prosper and grow under the leadership and dedication of the future Executive Committee and Technical Committees.

  • Curriculum Vitae
    Resume of J.N. Reddy J.N. REDDY e-mail: [email protected] http://mechanics.tamu.edu/ SUMMARY Dr. Reddy is a Distinguished Professor, Regents’ Professor, and the holder of the O’Donnell Foundation Chair IV in J. Mike Walker ’66 Department of Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas. Dr. Reddy earned a Ph.D. in Engineering Mechanics (1974) from University of Alabama in Huntsville. He worked as a Post-Doctoral Fellow in Texas Institute for Computational Mechanics (which is now known as Oden ICES) at the University of Texas at Austin (1974), Research Scientist for Lockheed Missiles and Space Company, Huntsville (l974-75), and taught at the University of Oklahoma (1975-1980), Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (1980-1992), and at Texas A&M University from 1992 till now. Dr. Reddy’s research has involved the development of dual-complementary variational principles in theoretical mechanics, mathematical theory of finite elements (especially mixed finite element formulations), refined mathematical models of laminated composite plates and shells, penalty formulations of the flows of viscous incompressible fluids, least-squares formulations of solid and fluid continua, and extensions and applications of the finite element method to a broad range problems, including: composite structures, numerical heat transfer, computational fluid dynamics, and biology and medicine. His shear deformation plate and shell theories and their finite element models and the penalty finite element models of non-Newtonian fluids have been implemented into commercial finite element computer programs like ABAQUS, NISA, and HyperXtrude. The current research of Dr. Reddy and his group deals with 7- and 12-parameter shell theories and nonlocal beam and plate theories using the ideas of Eringen, Mindlin, Koiter, and others (in collaboration with colleagues from China, Finland, France, India, Singapore, Spain).
