The Gibbs Brothers Medal is awarded by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences for "outstanding contributions in the field of naval architecture and marine engineering". It was established by a gift from William Francis Gibbs and Frederic Herbert Gibbs.[1]

Recipients[1]

  • Jerome H. Milgram (2017)
    • For wide-ranging original contributions to naval architecture in theoretical hydromechanics, education, yacht design, environmental protection, and the practical arts of ocean systems.
  • Robert G. Keane, Jr. (2012)
    • For continued excellence as a naval architect over many years, exemplified by the outstanding naval warships that he had a major part in designing, helping to make the U.S. Navy the most powerful in the world.
  • Keith W. Tantlinger (2009)
    • For his visionary and innovative design of the cellular container ship and supporting systems that transformed the world's shipping fleet and facilitated the rapid expansion of global trade.
  • Donald Liu (2006)
    • For first introducing finite element techniques into ship design and being the driving force behind the revolution in basing classification society rules on scientific principles.
  • Alfred C. Malchiodi (2003)
    • For leading innovations in developing the naval architecture of submarines for the efficient utilization of advanced technology.
  • Edward E. Horton (2001)
    • For visionary and innovative concept development and design of off-shore platforms, mooring systems, and related technology that have significantly influenced development of deep-water operations.
  • Justin E. Kerwin (1999)
    • For his outstanding contributions in the field of naval architecture, including the development of computational methods used worldwide in propeller design.
  • William B. Morgan (1997)
    • For his technical leadership in improving performance, quieting, and design of advanced marine propulsion systems, and development of large modern propulsion research and testing facilities.
  • Owen H. Oakley (1995)
    • For his significant contributions to the field of naval architecture, especially in the design of naval ships, submarines, and advanced ship types and submersibles.
  • Olin J. Stephens II (1993)
    • For his design of outstanding sailing vessels, including six defenders of the America's Cup and thousands of ocean-racing yachts, and for promoting the use of scientific knowledge and research in the field of naval architecture.
  • Bruce G. Collipp (1991)
    • For his invention of the semisubmersible, offshore, floating drilling platform, and for his sustained pioneering leadership in devising innovative ocean-engineering technologies.
  • Leslie A. Harlander (1988)
    • For his pioneering effort in the design of specialized vessels and cargo-handling equipment associated with intermodal shipping by container systems.
  • Matthew Galbraith Forrest (1979)
  • John Charles Niedermair (1976)
    • For his outstanding contributions to the field of naval architecture and marine engineering.
  • Phillip Eisenberg (1974)
    • For his work that is the basis of much of what is known about hydrofoils and how ships move smoothly.
  • Henry A. Schade (1970)
    • For his outstanding contributions in the design, construction, and performance of ships.
  • Alfred Adolf Heinrich Kiel (1967)
    • For his outstanding contributions in the field of naval architecture and marine engineering.
  • Frederick Henry Todd (1965)
    • For his contributions to the theory of ship design through model experiments, and for his leadership in hydrodynamic research.
