+ American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) Fellow.
Feri Farassat (LaRC). Awarded to AIAA members who have made notable and
valuable contributions to aeronautics.
+ American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) Aerospace Software Engineering Award.
Awarded to Dr. Mark Tischler, Dr. Shan-Min Swei, Chad Frost, and Kenny
Cheung (ARC) for developing CONDUIT, a revolutionary concept for
integrated control system software design, and for achieving its
acceptance by the aerospace industry. The award, which is given odd
years only, will be presented May 8, 2007, at the AIAA
Infotech@Aerospace 2007 Conference and Exhibit in Rohnert Park,
California.
+ American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) Losey Atmospheric Sciences Award.
Awarded to Dr. Mark Potapczuk (GRC) in recognition of outstanding
contributions to the atmospheric sciences as applied to the advancement
of aeronautics and astronautics. Dr. Potapczuk was selected for his
outstanding contributions to aviation safety through technical expertise
and leadership in the development of aircraft icing technology,
including knowledge of the fundamentals of ice-accretion physics and the
resulting changes in aerodynamics.
+ American Society for Composites (ACS) Fellow.
Dr. Christos Chamis (GRC). Awarded to Chamis for 45 years of research and contributions in the area of metallics and structures.
+ American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Best Paper Award.
Awarded by the ASME Ceramics Committee at ASME Turbo Expo 2007 to Dr.
James DiCarlo (GRC) and Mark van Roode of Solar Turbines for their
presentation of "Ceramic Composite Development for Gas Turbine Engine
Hot Section Components" at Turbo Expo 2006.
+ National Aeronautic Association (NAA) 2007 Robert J. Collier Trophy.
Awarded to researchers at NASA's Ames Research Center and NASA's Langley
Research Center for their contributions to a team of public and private
sector groups that conceptualized, developed, and oversaw initial
implementation of Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B),
the next generation performance-based air-ground, ground-air, and
air-air surveillance system.
+ R&D 100 Awards.
-
R&D 100 Award for High Speed Electromechanical Shutter.
Awarded to Dr. Quang-Viet Nguyen (GRC) of the Combustion Branch for the
patented high-speed electro-mechanical shutter technology. The
technology provides experimental validation of numerical models of
combustion using spontaneous Raman scattering measurements in
high-pressure flames.
-
R&D 100 Award for Ceramic Coatings.
Awarded to Dr. Dongming Zhu, Dr. Robert A. Miller; and Dr. Narottam P.
Bansaland (GRC) for advanced nano-defect cluster thermal environmental
barrier coatings developed for Si-based ceramic turbine engine
components. The multilayered and multifunctional coating systems were
developed by incorporating several revolutionary and patented coating
technologies that greatly extended the materials temperature capability,
environmental stability, and high heat-flux durability of light-weight
Si-based engine components in combustion environments. Application of
this technology will enable the use of lighter-weight,
higher-temperature-capable, silicon-based monolithic ceramic and
composite components in future advanced turbine engines.
+ SAE International Arch T. Colwell Merit Award.
Awarded to Wayne Johnson (ARC), Michael Watts (LaRC), and Gloria
Yamauchi (ARC) for co-authoring the paper "NASA Heavy Lift Rotorcraft
Systems Investigation." The Arch T. Colwell Award is presented annually
to recognize the authors of papers of outstanding technical or
professional merit presented at an SAE or SAE section meeting.
+ SAE International Arch T. Colwell Merit Award.
Awarded to Dr. Upender Kaul (ARC) and Dr. Nikunj Oza (ARC) for
co-authoring the paper "Machine Learning for Detecting and Locating
Damage in a Rotating Gear" (SAE paper 2005-01-3371). The Arch T. Colwell
Award is presented annually to recognize the authors of papers of
outstanding technical or professional merit presented at an SAE or SAE
section meeting.
+ Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers (STLE) P.M. Ku Award.
Awarded to Dr. Christopher DellaCorte (GRC) for his outstanding and
selfless achievement on behalf of STLE. STLE is a technical society
representing individuals, companies, and organizations that comprise the
tribology and lubrication engineering business sector.
