Scanlan Award<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Robert H. Scanlan was a tireless researcher who made scholarly contributions to both theory and practice in the fields of engineering mechanics, aerodynamics, and the aeroelasticity of civil engineering structures. Dr. Scanlan worked in both the private and public sectors, abroad and in the U.S., as well as in academia. In 1984, at age 70, after a full career at Princeton, he joined the Johns Hopkins faculty. He remained an active member of the faculty at Johns Hopkins, aiding the Department of Civil Engineering and its faculty, staff, and students, until his passing in 2001. Dr. Scanlan brought an indefatigable spirit to his work and made indelible contributions to wind engineering and to the study of bridge aerodynamics\u2014topics that are critical to structural engineering practice. This award is presented to a student who demonstrates an interest in and ability to link engineering research to practice.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Recipient: Evelyn Torres-Alfaro &#8217;17<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>Gerard H.
