 In Memoriam Professor Michael L Michelsen
 Professor Michael Michelsen, Emeritus Professor at the Technical
 University of Denmark, passed away on 26 August 2020. His
 contributions in applied thermodynamics, both related to algorithms
 and models, are extremely well-known and he has certainly put his
 stamp on numerous aspects of this field and community. In 2014, EFCE
 and its Working Party on Thermodynamics and Transport Properties honoured
 him with their Distinguished Lecture in recognition of his outstanding work in
 the field of thermodynamics. He will be deeply missed.
