  • Abstract
    ONE OF THE TWO distinguished Institute Members being honored here today is my esteemed friend and associate Dr. Sterling Beckwith. It was my good fortune to have worked with him in the design of rotating a-c machinery at the Allis-Chalmers Manufacturing Company for nearly 20 years. It is indeed a privilege to review his career for you, and to explain the significance of some of his more important contributions to the art of electrical machine design.
