俄羅斯科學院西伯利亞分院刊物(Science in Siberia)於2020.8.20刊登尹先生報導(下載PDF)，譯文如下： 俄羅斯科學院西伯利亞分院榮譽博士Samuel Yin 70大壽

尹衍樑（Samuel Yin）是國立台灣大學教授、國立台灣科技大學、北京大學、清華大學教授、武漢大學名譽教授、中國水利水電科學研究院名譽教授。

尹教授主要是研究複合結構的強度，特別是與抗震結構有關的強度。 在他的領導下，開發了一套預鑄格子板系統，該系統適用於設計高層建築隔震系統的高科技和創新方法，並創建了一套將科學、生產、控制和抗震結構操作相結合的新型預鑄工法。

值得注意的是，尹教授在基於抗震結構的多螺箍加固創新方法的基礎上，開發了一種用於自動生產加固結構的系統和技術的研究，獲得台灣、美國、英國、加拿大、日本等400多項專利，並運用在實際生產中。尹教授還創立具有獨特地震模擬的地震工程實驗室。

尹教授的成就，獲得無數國家和國際知名獎項和榮譽，包括工業發展研究的亨利·邁克（Henry L. Michel）獎、北京大學獎章、聯合國環境獎，以及許多其他獎項。

尹教授的社會活動得到各界高度的認可，他是許多科學家、大學生及研究生獎項的創辦人，特別值得一提的是「唐獎」：永續經營、漢學、法治、生技醫藥四大領域。除每位得獎得主獲得140萬美金的獎金之外，還另外再為科學研究撥款（超過34萬美金）。獲獎者分別來自以下國家：加拿大、法國、南非、日本、挪威、美國、印度、澳洲、孟加拉國、以色列等。

多年來，尹教授一直與俄羅斯科學院西伯利亞分院合作，特別是在應用力學研究所，包含在西伯利亞分院主席團與台灣科技部的國際合作研究計劃。

西伯利亞科學院祝賀榮譽博士Samuel Yin身體健康、取得新的巨大成就、幸福、好運，並繼續與西伯利亞分院保持合作。

The epidemic is developing all over the world, so activities between Taiwan and Russia are deeply affected. While it is still difficult in Russia, Taiwan has coped with the coronavirus well, and restrictions on various indoor and outdoor activities have been gradually lifted.

Board of Directors' and Supervisors' Meeting took place on July 16. During the meeting, President of IAE B.V. Gusev (download) and Mr. Huang (download) from Science and Technology Division of the Moscow Representative Office of the Taipei-Moscow Coordination Commission for Economic and Cultural Cooperation were specially invited to speak separately via videoconference.

President of IAE, B. Gusev spoke about the main directions of activities and the structure of IAE. There is a wide range of engineering activities, and the most important ones are energy, materials science, problems of mechanical engineering, automation and robotization. Of course, environmental problems are further developed.

Mr. Huang, director of Science and Technology Division in Moscow, explained that for six months they have promoted scientific and technical cooperation with Russia and its neighboring countries. They have continued to conduct various events. In October, there will be a seminar on humanitarian and sustainable disasters (Vladivostok). On November 1-7 - a seminar on aerospace and technical sciences (Novosibirsk), in December - a biomedical seminar (Moscow). Everyone from TCIAE is welcome.

After the meeting, group photos were taken for memory.
