GROUND TESTING AND SIMULATION AWARDS

Dating from 1975, this Award is presented for outstanding achievement in the development or effective utilization of technology, procedures, facilities, or modeling techniques for flight simulation, space simulation, propulsion testing, or other ground testing associated with aeronautics and astronautics.

Selected by the Ground Testing Technical Committee:

  • Dr. Frank Steinle (2007) For an exemplary career in experimental aerodynamics, wind tunnel and test technique development and leadership to the advancement of the state-of-the-art in ground testing.
  • Blair Gloss (2005) For outstanding contributions to the ground testing community and in recognition of his knowledge and expertise in the field of subsonic and supersonic aeronautic ground test facilities.
  • W. Glenn Steele (2004) For pioneering efforts in experimental uncertainty analysis with significant methodology advances and effective dissemination of knowledge through a straight-forward engineering approach in their text and short-course.
  • Henry Nagamatsu (2003) Prof. Nagamatsu has designed, built, and operated numerous ground testing facilities including Hypersonic testing facilities, wind tunnels transonic and combustion facilities. He has pioneered hypersonic research in the 1940s and 1950s.

ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP GUIDELINES

The purpose of instituting and associate membership category for technical committees (TCs) is to encourage the nomination of young professionals for TC membership. TCs have a membership limit of 35. TCs may add associate members in addition to the 35 regular member limit.

  1. Associate membership is restricted to those who have not yet reached their 35th birthday.
  2. Associate membership is a one year term renewable to three years.
  3. Associate membership is restricted to current AIAA members.
  4. Selection to associate membership is based on technical merit. The associate members should show promise within the field of the technical committee.
  5. Associate members may attend TC or subcommittee meetings and will assist in carrying out committee work.
  6. At the discretion of the TC, associate members may be assigned a volunteer full member as a counselor. The counselor will advise and guide the associate member on TC procedures and activities.
  7. Associate members will have no voting privileges on the TC, but may (with consent) act as a substitute for their counselor. The GTTC has decided to override this rule and allow voting privileges per the GTTC charter.
  8. Associate members will not count toward the TC membership limit.
  9. Application forms for associate membership are the same as for full membership, but a resume is a required attachment. Applicants for full membership who were not selected may be considered for associate membership provided they meet the age restriction.
  10. At least two associate members should be appointed to each TC. At not time should the number of associate members exceed that of full members.
  11. An endorsement form (indicating that the nominee may travel to two meetings per year and have some time to devote to committee business) from the nominee’s department head must accompany each form.
