All Corporate Fellow summaries reflect the awardee and ORNL at the time the fellowship was awarded.
2012
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.
2005
For research in the fields of astrophysics and supernova science.
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.
1989
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.
1986
For contributions to advanced control systems for nuclear reactor, including development of control-system and plant protection technologies that permit automated start-up and operation; and to analysis techniques that have led to better understanding of reactor dynamics.
For contributions to understanding plasma turbulence and the nonlinear properties of magnetohydrodynamic instabilities, especially their role in explaining the behavior of magnetically confined plasmas, and for development of new magnetic confinement concepts that overcome these limitations.
