The present award supports the activities of the U.S. National Committee on Technical and Applied Mechanics in 2014. This committee represents the U.S. community of researchers and scientists with interest in mechanics. It thereby represents 15 professional societies. The committee has both international as well as domestic agendas. With this award the committee will fulfills the member country obligations to the International Union for Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (IUTAM) through paying membership dues, and sending a U.S. to the Union's General Assembly to represent U.S. interests. Furthermore, this awards supports the domestic efforts of the committee by enabling adminsitrative support as well as the annual meeting of the national committee.Through the work of the U.S. National Committee on Technical and Applied Mechanics the U.S. research community is represented in general matters of the International Union on Technical and Applied Mechanics, its leadership structure, the organization of the International Congress of Technical and Applied Mechanics, and the organization and award of IUTAM technical symposia, and of IUTAM summer schools. These events serve as important catalysts in research. The committee also facilitates informal international cooperation and discussion on the subject matter of the committee. Domestically, the committee represents and engages with the mechanics community. With this award the annual meeting of the committee is enabled. The committee oversees the organization of the U.S. Congress on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, and has initiated the AMERIMECH symposium series. Ultimately, the work of the committee in its role of leadership internationally and nationally, leads to a contribution to scientific diplomacy in the subject area of technical and applied mechanics.

该奖项支持美国国家技术和应用力学委员会2014年的活动。该委员会代表美国对力学感兴趣的研究人员和科学家社区。因此，它代表15个专业协会。该委员会既有国际议程，也有国内议程。该委员会将通过缴纳会费和向国际理论与应用力学联合会（IUTAM）大会派遣一名代表美国利益的美国代表来履行成员国对该联合会的义务。此外，该奖项支持委员会的国内努力，使行政支持以及国家委员会的年度会议。通过美国国家技术和应用力学委员会的工作，美国研究界代表国际技术和应用力学联盟的一般事务，其领导结构，组织国际技术和应用力学大会，组织和颁发IUTAM技术研讨会和IUTAM暑期学校。这些事件是研究的重要催化剂。委员会还促进就委员会的主题事项开展非正式国际合作和讨论。在国内，该委员会代表并与力学界接触。有了这个奖项，委员会的年度会议得以举行。该委员会监督美国理论与应用力学大会的组织，并发起了AMERIMECH系列研讨会。最终，委员会在国际和国内发挥领导作用的工作，导致在技术和应用力学的主题领域的科学外交的贡献。
