Michael Mary Carroll (December 8, 1936, Thurles, County Tipperary, Ireland; †January 17, 2016, Houston, Texas, USA) was a mathematical physicist who worked on continuum mechanics and a professor of engineering. His research in the areas of nonlinear elasticity and porous media is especially significant. (This entry is based largely on Casey (2011), pp. 453–466, where a fuller account of Carroll’s life and work may be found.)
