Isaac Elishakoff is a Georgian American mechanical engineer who is a Distinguished Research Professor in the Ocean and Mechanical Engineering Department in the Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, Florida.[1] He has made contributions in the areas of random vibrations, solid mechanics of composite material, semi-inverse problems of vibrations and stability, functionally graded material structures, and nanotechnology. He has written over 590 journal papers,[2] and contributed to 32 books.[3][4]
In 2021, Elishakoff received the Blaise Pascal Medal in Engineering from the European Academy of Sciences,[5] “to recognise an outstanding and demonstrated personal contribution to science and technology and the promotion of excellence in research and education.” He was simultaneously elected as a Fellow of the European Academy of Sciences. At the award ceremony he lectured on “Uncertainty Analysis in Engineering: From Blaise Pascal and Pierre Fermat to Modern Times.”
