ABSTRACT
This issue of the Journal of The Chinese Institute of Engineers is a Festschrift issue devoted to honoring Prof. G. C. Sih.
A brief biography and a list of his over 200 publications are presented, as well as articles from his colleagues, friends, and
former students from the U. S. A., Taiwan, China, Canada, Australia, Germany, Greece and Italy. The contents of this issue
are: 1) Thermoxidative Aging Effects on Mechanical Performances of Polychloroprene 2) A Mother-Daughter-Granddaughter
Mechanism of Shear Dominated Intersonic Crack Motion along Interfaces of Dissimilar Materials 3) Design of Smart
Composite Structures in the Presence of Uncertainties 4) The Mode-III Fracture Analysis of an Inclined Crack Embedded in
Thin Layer Systems by Analytical Alternating Methods 5) Application of Energy Density Theory on Finite Cracked Bodies
