Foreword<br />

THE Transactions <strong>of</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>American</strong> <strong>Society</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Mechanical</strong> <strong>Engineers</strong> include<br />

selected technical papers and reports delivered at meetings <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Society</strong>, its<br />

Pr<strong>of</strong>essional Divisions, and its Local Sections, the Journal <strong>of</strong> Applied Mechanics<br />

(contributions <strong>of</strong> the Applied Mechanics Division), certain records <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Society</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

permanent value, and indexes to its publications.<br />

In order to secure the advantages <strong>of</strong> timeliness and greater usefulness in issuing<br />

these <strong>Society</strong> Records, the material comprising them is divided into a number <strong>of</strong><br />

parts, each one <strong>of</strong> which is mailed as a supplement to one <strong>of</strong> the regular monthly<br />

issues <strong>of</strong> the Transactions. For 1941, the first <strong>of</strong> these, the present issue, contains<br />

the personnel <strong>of</strong> the Council and committees for the year. Another, to be issued<br />

sometime later in the year, will contain memorial notices <strong>of</strong> deceased members.<br />

<strong>The</strong> indexes to miscellaneous publications, <strong>Mechanical</strong> Engineering, and to the<br />

Transactions themselves, must, necessarily, be issued in 1942, and will probably be<br />

mailed as a supplement to the January issue <strong>of</strong> that year.<br />

In binding the 1941 Transactions, all <strong>of</strong> these parts <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Society</strong> Records will be<br />

assembled at the back <strong>of</strong> the volume as has been customary for several years. To aid<br />

in locating references in the bound volumes, the page numbers <strong>of</strong> the sections containing<br />

the Journal <strong>of</strong> Applied Mechanics and the <strong>Society</strong> Records are preceded by<br />

the letters A and RI, respectively.<br />
