Corporate Fellows

For environmental-effects research related to energy technologies and their use, focusing on the impacts of climate and atmospheric changes on the physiology, growth, and biogeochemical cycles of North American forest ecosystems.

For pioneering research and development of new materials for advanced energy technologies, including materials for (a) the storage of nuclear waste, (b) the solid-state generation of electrical power directly from heat, and (c) the lossless transport of electricity.

For outstanding scientific, programmatic, and institutional contributions to ORNL in advanced computational structural mechanics and nuclear safety technologies.

For contributions to high-performance networking and multiple-sensor fusion and for developing a unifying theory of information fusion.

For his leadership in light-water reactor development, reactor safety, and the disposition of uranium waste.

For studies of the electronic structure of molecules, computational chemistry, and high-performance algorithms and computing.

For developments in biomedical engineering and biotechnology, micromechanical devices, and nanoscale imaging and detection.

For research leading to the development of new materials and to the solution of a wide range of fundamental and applied problems in solid-state science through the application of modern methods for the synthesis and characterization of ceramics, glasses, and alloys and the growth of single crystals.

For basic studies in the fracture of and toughening mechanisms in ceramics and ceramic composites, in the establishment of the relationships between microstructure and composition and mechanical behavior, and in the development of advanced ceramic materials.
