Bolton Seed Lecture was given on March 20, 2022 in Charlotte, NC, at Geo-Congress 2022 by Jon Bray of the University of California Berkeley. Professor Bray's lecture is titled "Evaluating the Effects of Liquefaction."
The H. Bolton Seed Medal is awarded for outstanding contributions to teaching, research, and/or practice in geotechnical engineering. This award was established by the Geotechnical Engineering Division (now the Geo-Institute) of the Society in memory of Professor H. Bolton Seed, Hon.M.ASCE. It was officially instituted by action of the Board of Direction on October 23, 1993 and was funded by friends and colleagues of Professor Seed and the U.S. National Society Endowment Fund.
Professor Seed made many significant contributions to teaching, research and the practards, including ASCE's Norman Medal (twice), Croes Medal (three times), Middlebrooks Award (five times), the Terzaghi Award and the Terzaghi Lectureship. In 1985, he was the first recipient of the Nash Medal of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE). In addition to his numerous technical contributions, Professor Seed devoted considerable time and effort to the profession through the activities of the Geo-Institute of ASCE and through ISSMGE. He served as Permanent Secretary, U.S. National Society (USNS) of the ISSMGE for more than 10 years.
