O.H. Ammann Research Fellowship
Information about the O.H. Ammann Research Fellowship
The O. H. Ammann Research Fellowship in Structural Engineering, which is bestowed annually to a member for the purpose of encouraging the creation of new knowledge in the field of structural design and construction. The O. H. Ammann Fellowship was endowed in 1963 by O. H. Ammann, Hon.M.ASCE, and was increased in 1985 by Klary V. Ammann (widow of O. H. Ammann).
November 1, 2010 will be the deadline for next year's applications.

Announcement of the 2009 O.H. Ammann Research Fellowship Award
The SEI Technical Activities Division Executive Committee awarded the 2009 O.H. Ammann Research Fellowship in Structural Engineering to Mr. Taraka Ravi Shankar Mullapudi, a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering of the University of Houston, pursing a degree in Civil/Structural Engineering. The fellowship, which the TAD Executive Committee bestows annually for the purpose of encouraging the creation of new knowledge in the field of structural design and construction, was awarded for his research entitled "Seismic Simulation and Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures under Combined Actions Including Torsion." The overall objective of Mullapudi’s research is to address the complex behavior of reinforced concrete structures under combined loading and its impact on system response by analytical studies. The research program will progress under two thrust areas: Analysis and Design, and Experimental Simulation (Cyclic, Pseudo Dynamic, Hybrid and Dynamic) The results of his research may find their way into codes like AASHTO LRFD and NCHRP. Mr. Mullapudi’s full report will be posted when it becomes available.
Congratulations to Mr. Mullapudi for his hard work and dedication which earned him this fellowship award.
