Thomas Kane

Professor Thomas R. Kane was born in Austria in 1924 and emigrated to the United States in 1938. After serving as a combat photographer in the South Pacific from 1943-45, he enrolled at Columbia University where he later received four degrees: a B.S. in Mathematics, a B.S. and M.S. in Civil Engineering, and a PhD. in Applied Mechanics.
After graduating, Professor Kane spent the next 45 years teaching at the University of Pennsylvania and Stanford University, and giving lectures, seminars, and conferences in several languages around the world. Professor Kane has served the scientific and engineering communities as a researcher, mentor to multiple generations of practitioners, scientists and educators, and through his impassioned promotion of the field.
He has published 10 textbooks and 172 technical papers that include seminal works in spacecraft dynamics, biomechanics, and modern computational dynamics. Due to his many contributions Professor Kane is widely acknowledged as one of the world’s preeminent motion expert and the author of modern dynamics theory (often referred to as "Kane Method").
Professor Kane has been instrumental in the development of Autolev, the symbolic multibody systems simulation program, providing technical leadership and vast amounts of documentation. Currently Professor Kane is a Professor Emeritus of the Mechanics and Computation Division of Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University. He is also the President of Kane Dynamics, Inc. a consulting company that specializes in providing motion expertise to the biomechanical, legal and defense industries.
Since joining OnLine Dynamics in 1988, Professor Kane has pioneered the effort to bring symbolic manipulation to the engineering classroom. He has generously shared his motion simulation knowledge with three new (1999) textbooks that successfully integrate symbolic manipulation into the undergraduate and graduate statics/dynamics classroom.
