EASD AWARDS
Call for Nominations for EASD Research Prizes and Special Awards
The European Association for Structural Dynamics (www.easd.eu) announces six research prizes and special awards:
The EASD Research Prizes are given in recognition of outstanding and sustained contributions to the following areas:
1. Methodologies for Structural Dynamics
2. Computational Structural Dynamics
3. Applications of Structural Dynamics
In each of those three areas Senior and Junior Prizes, respectively, will be awarded. Eligibility for Junior Prizes requires that the nominee is forty years old or younger and should not turn 41 in the year the award is presented.
Special Awards will be given for outstanding contributions to other important areas not encompassed above, such as Structural Dynamics Education, Transfer of Structural Dynamics Methods to Engineering Practice, etc. Special Awards are also given to honour individuals who have made outstanding and sustained contributions in the field of Structural Dynamics and related fields generally over periods representing portions of their professional careers.
General guidelines and features of the research prizes and special awards are listed below:
Eligibility: all recipients shall be contributors to past EASDs (European Conferences of Structural Dynamics).
The research prizes and special awards shall be given in Delft , 2-5 July 2023, at the 12th International Conference on Structural Dynamics EURODYN 2023.
Nominations: the EURODYN Awards Committee appointed by the Executive Board of EASD solicits nominations. Nominators may nominate no more than one individual for each of the prizes or awards. Self-nominations are not accepted. Nominators are invited to submit a one-page maximum combined nominating statement/vita in support of the nominee. The Awards Committee shall select the prize winners and awardees.
