Dr. Joe Majdalani, Arnold Chair of Excellence at the University
of Tennessee Space Institute (UTSI), was honored by the American
Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) for his consistent
contributions to the aerospace engineering profession since 1991.
He is one of several aerospace propulsion experts who were elevated
to the Associate Fellow rank in a special ceremony conducted this
year at the 49th Aerospace Sciences Meeting held in Orlando, FL, on
January 4, 2011.
Dr. Majdalani was nominated by Dr. Trevor Moeller, MABE Assistant
Professor at UTSI. The nomination was based on several distinct
factors, especially his substantial contributions to the modeling of
injection and swirl driven combustion chambers, acoustic
instability, and high speed flow analysis.
