Maurice A. Biot Medal
The Maurice A. Biot Medal was established in 2002 by a generous endowment
from Madame M. A. Biot to the American Society of Civil Engineers to honor of
her late husband. The medal annually awards "an individual who has
made outstanding research contributions to the mechanics of porous materials."
