Extractions: Theodore von Karman Born in Jozsefvaros district of Budapest Hungary, on May 11, 1881. von skolloskislaki Karman Todor became to be known as Theodore von Karman. His scientific reputation rested on a series of profound insights on the nature of aerodynamics, which he demonstrated through a highly intuitive style of applied mathematics. He published more then two hundred papers, which laid much of the technical basis of flight. He forged scientific cooperation and founded a number of powerful aerospace institutions.

Extractions: In 1911 deed hij onderzoek aan de alternerende dubbele rij van wervels achter een vlakke plaat in een stroming. Dit verschijnsel is later de Von Karman wervelstraat genoemd. In het volgende jaar werd Von Karman directeur van het Luchtvaart Instituut in Aken. Hij bezocht de Verenigde Staten in 1926 en vier jaar later werd hij directeur van het Aeronautical Laboratory van het California Institute of Technology. In 1933 stichtte hij het U.S. Institute of Aeronautical Sciences, waar hij verder ging met zijn onderzoek aan vloeistofmechanica, turbulentie theorie en supersonisch vliegen. Hij bestudeerde ook toepassingen van de wiskunde op het gebied van werktuigbouwkunde, vliegtuigconstructies en bodemerosie. Terug naar de numerieke wiskunde introductie of de home page van Kees Vuik.

Extractions: Search Principal Guideline The committee will be an ad hoc committee. On the advice of the vice president-at-large, the president will appoint three members, designating one member to be the chair. The appointments should be made at least eighteen months before the prize award date. Committee members will be members of SIAM. The term of office of the committee will be from the date of appointment until the date of the awarding of the prize. If the committee reports that no prize can be awarded and this report is accepted by the executive committee of the council, then the committee's duties will be completed. The committee will determine its own rules of operation. It may solicit suggestions for nominations from other members of the scientific community. The prize will normally be awarded to a member of SIAM. It may be awarded to a nonmember, but the standards for this exception should follow the example set by the first award of this prize (Sir Geoffrey Taylor, 1972). The prize committee will report its findings to the president at least ten months prior to the prize award date. The prize committee must select at most one prize winner except in extraordinary cases. Exceptions to this rule must be approved in advance by the executive committee of the council. The nomination for the award must be accompanied by a written justification and a citation of about 100 words that can be read at award time. The president will report these findings to the executive committee of the council.

Von Karman was a co-founder of JPL. In 1944, he established the Air Corps Scientific Advisory Group for General Henry H. Arnold, commander of the U.S. Army Air Forces in World War II. In 1951, he launched the Advisory Group for Aeronautical Research and Development (AGARD), where he served as chairman until his death. He was involved in several other international scientific groups and discussions about science and technology. He has laboratories bearing his name at the California Institute of Technology and at the Arnold Engineering Development Center of the U.S. Air Force at Tullahoma, Tennessee. President John F. Kennedy awarded him the first National Medal of Science in 1963.

FAQ Theodore von Karman Master Scientist - Aero Engineer Born Budapest, Hungary May 11, 1881 - May 6, 1963 Dr. Theodore von Karman received a fellowship to the world famous Gottingen University where he undertook the investigation of aerodynamic drag and the construction of one of Europe's first wind tunnels. He then accepted the Chair of Aeronautics at the Technische Hochschule in Aachen, Germany. His presence made the school an international center for aeronautical research. In reaction to growing Nazi influence in German academic circles, von Karman moved to California in 1930, where he was director of the Guggenheim Aeronautics Laboratory at Cal Tech until 1949. He helped to create the Advisory Group on Aeronautical Research and Development for the NATO countries, serving as Chairman of that body from 1951 until his death.

Extractions: The Theodore von Karman Prize, established in 1968, is awarded for a notable application of mathematics to mechanics and/or the engineering sciences made during the five to ten years preceding the award. The award may be given either for a single notable achievement or for a collection of such achievements. The 1994 recipient is Herbert B. Keller, California Institute of Technology. Chair: Avner Friedman, Institute for Mathematics and Its Applications, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis Many parameter dependent problems in science and technology are such that the number of solutions that exist changes as the parameters change. Cases of particular importance are those for which a denumerable number of solutions exist for a fixed parameter value. Several such problems and numerical methods for approximating their solutions will be presented. Problems in which these questions are open at present will be included. Herbert B.

The complex includes 58 aerodynamic and propulsion wind tunnels, rocket and turbine engine test cells, space environmental chambers, arc heaters, ballistic ranges, and other specialized test units. Twenty-seven of the test units have capabilities unmatched in the United States and 14 have capabilities unmatched in the world. Using its ground test facilities, AEDC supports propulsion, aerodynamic, reentry, trans-atmospheric and space-flight systems testing. Terms to Know Mach number - a ratio unit of speed, named after Austrian philosopher and physicist Ernst Mach (1838-1916), used when talking about aircraft or missiles; defined as a ratio of the speed of an aircraft to the speed of sound in the undisturbed medium (air) through which the body is traveling. Mach 1 is approximately equal to 717 miles/hour at sea level. Transonic - speeds at or near that of sound.
