Ammann Research FellowshipNominations Sought For O.H. Ammann Research FellowshipNominations are being solicited for the 2007 O. H. Ammann Research Fellowship in Structural Engineering, which is bestowed annually to a member for the purpose of encouraging the creation of new knowledge in the field of structural design and construction. The O. H. Ammann Fellowship was endowed in 1963 by O. H. Ammann, Hon.M.ASCE, and was increased in 1985 by Klary V. Ammann (widow of O. H. Ammann). The application is included on the web page. The deadline for submitting applications is February 19, 2008. The 2005 and 2006 Winner The SEI Technical Activities Division Executive Committee awarded the 2005 O. H. Ammann Research Fellowship in Structural Engineering to Ms. Dragana Jankovic, a Ph.D. student at Delft University of Technologies in Delft, Netherlands. The fellowship, which the TAD Executive Committee bestows annually for the purpose of encouraging the creation of new knowledge in the field of structural design and construction, was awarded for her research entitled "Lattice Type Models: Coupled Analysis of Moisture Flow and Cracking." Jankovic's study aims to investigate cracking behavior in the interface zone between aggregate and porous cement matrix in concrete. Jankovic uses a two dimensional lattice gas model, as well as the DIANA lattice-module to model the behavior of the interface zone in concrete. Ms. Jankovic's full report will be posted as soon as it becomes available.
