<B>RODNEY J. CLIFTON</B> is Professor of Engineering and Rush C. Hawkins
University Professor at Brown University. Rod has been active in
plate impact research for over twenty five years, combining
experimental and numerical approaches. He has led the development
of several new plate impact experiments for studying the dynamic
shearing resistance of materials and their dynamic fracture toughness.
Best known of these experiments is the pressure-shear impact
configuration which allows the generation of large shear strains
under conditions of simple shear. This configuration has been used
in studies of metals, ceramics, ceramic powders, glasses, lubricants, and
shape-memory alloys. It has also been used for time-resolved measurements
of friction. Other configurations he has introduced include the
eight-pointed star flyer for soft recovery experiments and the
mid-plane cracked target plate for studying dynamic fracture toughness
under conditions of plane strain. He and his students have been
active contributors to Meetings of the APS Topical Group on
Shock Compression of Condensed Matter. Rod has served on Technical
Program Committees for these meetings. He is the recipient of
medals from several professional societies and is a member of the
National Academy of Engineering.
<P>
<B>DATTA P. DANDEKAR</B> a research physicist and an Army Research Laboratory
Fellow in the Army Research Laboratory-Weapons and Materials Research
Directorate, Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, has been active in shock
compression research in the condensed matter for the last 25 years. His
primary interest is in strength of materials under shock induced
compression and tension. As a member of the American Physical Society he
assisted/served the Topical Group on Shock Compression of Condensed Matter
in various capacities. Two most recent examples of this assistance were
chairing of its Awards Committee in 1995 and chairing the 1997 Topical
Conference on Shock Compression of Condensed Matter held at University of
Massachusetts, Amherst, Massachusetts.

<B>J. MICHAEL BOTELER</B> is a research physicist at the Army Research Laboratory
in Aberdeen, Md. He has been active in shock wave research for the last
ten years performing shock experiments on energetic and inert materials,
liquids, composites, and single crystals. His principal research interests
are in the dynamic response of novel composite materials and shock-induced
morphic effects in solids. He has developed experimental techniques for
examining transient microscopic changes in materials during rapid loading
conditions and at the present time is developing optical diagnostic
techniques for ARL shock applications. He has served as a technical
reviewer for the Ninth APS Shock Compression Topical Group Conference and
more recently as the Treasurer for the 10th Biennial APS shock conference
at Amherst, Ma. in July, 1997.

<P>
<B>MICHAEL D. FURNISH</B> is a technical staff member at Sandia National
Laboratories. His current interests in the field include dynamic
behavior of geological materials, electrically poled ferroelectrics and
ceramics, as well as mass ejecta from shocked surfaces. He is working
closely with teams from Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore National
Laboratories on various Nevada Test Site shock compression projects as
well. Mike has been active in shock wave studies since 1984. He was
on the Program Committee for the 1995 Topical Conference, has been
Membership Chair for the Topical Group for the last six years, and is
the incoming Publications Chair for Proceedings.
<P>
<B>ZVI ROSENBERG</B>, an experimental physicist, is a senior member of the
Ballistics center at RAFAEL, ISRAEL. He has been active, for 25years,
in developments of diagnostics for shock wave studies, material
characterization and modeling. Recently he has been active in terminal
ballistics of long rod penetrators. He is a member of the American
Physical Society.
<P>
<B>GERRIT T. SUTHERLAND</B> is a member of the Chemistry and Detonics Division at
the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Indian Head Division. His main interests
are performance of shock and detonation physics experiments on explosives.
He has an interest in performing computer simulations of these experiments.
Gerrit has been active in this field since 1983. He has served on the
technical program committee for the 1997 technical conference and has helped
with the registration process and organization of the poster sessions for
the last two technical conferences. In addition, Gerrit has assisted Mike
Furnish on the membership committee for the last 4 years. He has also
participated in the APS program to assist in the training of elementary
school teachers in Montgomery County, Maryland. Gerrit would like to see the
topical group move toward: 1). more participation of technicians at
technical conferences, 2). more workshops and tutorials at technical
conferences, and 3). expansion of services provided on the topical group's
web site.
