Bernard Coleman is recognized among Jewish contributors to Science & Medicine — Architect of the rational thermodynamics of materials; Bingham Medal (1984)
Bernard D. Coleman, with Clifford Truesdell and Walter Noll, built the rational thermodynamics of continuous materials, and the 'Coleman-Noll procedure' for exploiting the entropy inequality remains a cornerstone of continuum mechanics; he won the Bingham Medal of the Society of Rheology in 1984. He is listed among Jews in continuum mechanics in Jewish biographical references.
