In 1998, he was awarded the fellowship of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science.
He founded ICCES which established the Satya N. Atluri ICCES Medal in honor of its founder. He received the Hilbert Medal in 2003 and ICCES Medal in 1992.
Other activities
In 1986, Atluri founded a scientific association, ICCES: International Conference on Computational & Experimental Engineering & Sciences.[20] ICCES held annual meetings of scientists from various countries in general, and Asia in particular: Tokyo (1986); Atlanta (1988); Melbourne, Australia (1991); Hong Kong (1992); Hawaii (1995); Costa Rica 91997); Atlanta (1998); Los Angeles (2000); Puerto Vallarta, Mexico (2001); Reno, Nevada (2002); Corfu, Greece (2003); Madeira, Portugal (2004); Chennai, India (2005, held on the occasion of the 60th birthday of Atluri at IIT Madras. The inaugural lecture was delivered by the then president of the Republic of India, The Honorable Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam); Miami (2007); Hawaii, US (2008); and Phuket, Thailand (2009). Las Vegas (2010); Nanjing, China (2011); Crete, Greece (2012); Seattle, US (2013); Changwon, South Korea (2014); Reno, US (2015); Madeira, Portugal (2017) and Tokyo, Japan (2019).
ICCES has established several international awards, including the Satya N. Atluri ICCES Medal, Hilbert Medal, Eric Reissner Medal, THH Pian Medal, W-Z. Chien Medal, K Washizu Medal, Sejong Award, AS Kobayashi Medal for Young Scientists in Experimental Research, S. Ramanujan Medal for Outstanding Young Scientists in Computation, and S. Chandrasekhar Medal for Outstanding Young Scientists in Theory.
Atluri is the founder of FSL: A Global Forum on Structural Longevity (Health Management, Failure Prevention, & Infrastructure Rehabilitation).
He founded the journals Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences (2000);[21] Computers, Materials, & Continua (2004);[22] Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics (2004);[23] Structural Longevity (2008); and Advances in Computational Mechanics (2008),[24] all of which are published by Tech Science Press.[25] All these journals are in the frontier disciplines of engineering and the sciences, and especially at the interfaces of engineering and the sciences. Previously, Atluri founded, and was editor-in-chief of, the international journal Computational Mechanics,[26] from 1986 to 2000.
