Professor Glaucio H. Paulino has won the 2014 Ted Belytschko Applied Mechanics Award from the ASME Applied Mechanics Division.
The Ted Belytschko Applied Mechanics Award is given to an outstanding individual for significant contributions in the practice of engineering mechanics; contributions may result from innovation, research, design, leadership or education.
Dr. Paulino is the Donald Biggar Willet Professor in Engineering. He has taught graduate and undergraduate classes in mechanics of materials, fracture mechanics, plates and shells, continuum mechanics, tensor analysis, methods of structural analysis, finite element method, and boundary element method. His research interests include structural analysis, computational mechanics, functionally graded materials, experimental methods, constitutive modeling of engineering materials, multiscale phenomena, high-order continuum, fracture and damage mechanics, structural dynamics, solution adaptive techniques, inverse problems in mechanics, sensitivity analysis and optimization, and topology design of structures.
