This quantity collects papers devoted to Jerry Ericksen on his 60th birthday, December 20, 1984. They first seemed in Volumes 82-90 (1983-1985) of the Archive for Rational Mechanics and research. on the request of the Editors the checklist of authors to be invited was once drawn up via C. M. Dafermos, D. D. Joseph, and F. M. Leslie. The breadth and intensity of the works right here reprinted mirror the corresponding features in Jerry Ericksen's examine, educating, scholarship, and notion. His pursuits and expertness heart upon the mechanics of fabrics and expand to every thing which may give a contribution to it: natural research, algebra, geometry, via all facets of theoretical mechanics to basic scan, all of those illumi­ nated by way of an intimate and deep familiarity with the resources, even very outdated ones. he's self reliant of faculty and contemptuous of occasion spirit; his generosity in freely giving his principles is popular, yet no longer everyone seems to be able to accepting what's provided. His writings are for free of huge claims and attributions past his personal learn. a few are decisive, a few are prophetic, and all are forthright. His paintings has served as a beacon of perception and straightforward honesty in an age of ever extra trivial and corrupt technology. The authors of the memoirs during this quantity are his scholars, colleagues, admirers, and (above all) his friends.
