Elishakoff has made a substantial contribution to conference organization. In particular, he participated in the organization of the Euro-Mech Colloquium on “Refined Dynamical Theories of Beams, Plates and Shells, and Their Applications” in Kassel, Germany (1986); the Second International Conference on Stochastic Structural Dynamics, in Boca Raton, USA (1990); “International Conference on Uncertain Structures” in Miami, USA and Western Caribbean (1996). He also coordinated four special courses at the International Centre for Mechanical Sciences (CISM), in Udine, Italy (1997, 2001, 2005, 2011).
Prof. Elishakoff has published over 540 original papers in leading journals and conference proceedings. He championed authoring, co-authoring or editing of 31 influential and extremely well-received books and edited volumes.
Here follows some praise of his work and books:
– “It was not until 1979, when Elishakoff published his reliability study … that a method has been proposed, which made it possible to introduce the results of imperfection surveys … into the analysis …” (Prof. Johann Arbocz, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands, Zeitschrift für Flugwissenschaften und Weltraumforschung).
– “He has achieved world renown … His research is characterized by its originality and a combination of mathematical maturity and physical understanding which is reminiscent of von Kármán …” (Prof. Charles W. Bert, University of Oklahoma).
– “It is clear that Elishakoff is a world leader in his field … His outstanding reputation is very well deserved …” (Prof. Bernard Budiansky, Harvard University).
– “Professor Isaac Elishakoff … is subject-wise very much an all-round vibrationalist” (P. E. Doak, Editor in Chief, Journal of Sound and Vibration, University of Southampton, UK).
– “This is a beautiful book …” (Dr. Stephen H. Crandall, Ford Professor of Engineering, M.I.T.).
– “Das Buch ist in seiner Aufmachunghervorragendgestaltet und kannalsäusserstwertvolleErganzung … wäzmstensempfohlenwerden …” [The book’s appearance is perfectly designed and can be highly recommended as a valuable addition.] (Prof. Horst Försching, Institute of Aeroelasticity, Federal Republic of Germany, Zeitschrift für Flugwissenschaften und Weltraumforschung).
– “Because of you, Notre Dame is an even better place, a more distinguished University” (Prof. Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, President, University of Notre Dame).
– “It is an impressive volume …” (Prof. Warner T. Koiter, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands).
– “This extremely well-written text, authored by one of the leaders in the field, incorporates many of these new applications … Professor Elishakoff’s techniques for developing the material are accomplished in a way that illustrates his deep insight into the topic as well as his expertise as an educator … Clearly, the second half of the text provides the basis for an excellent graduate course in random vibrations and buckling … Professor Elishakoff has presented us with an outstanding instrument for teaching” (Prof. Frank Kozin, Polytechnic Institute of New York, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Journal).
– “By far the best book on the market today СКАЧАТЬ
