The award honors two great Johns Hopkins fluid dynamicists, the late Professor Stanley Corrsin and the late Professor Leslie Kovasznay. A number of alumni and friends have come together and established a fund for this award.<\/p>\n<p>To be eligible for nomination, the young scholar (1) must be a graduate student or postdoctoral fellow at the Johns Hopkins University, or has left the university no more than 2 years prior to the nomination, and (2) must be a lead author of a paper in fluid mechanics that, at the time of nomination, has already been published in a peer-reviewed, archival journal and describes work done while at Johns Hopkins University. The award, to be given out once a year, consists of $500 to the awardee. In most cases, the awardee will be invited to campus to give a seminar and will receive the award on that occasion. The award is administered by the Center for Environmental and Applied Fluid Mechanics (CEAFM). A committee will receive and evaluate nominations each year, and select the awardee.<\/p>\n<p>Nominations should be emailed to <a href=\"mailto:meneveau@jhu.edu\"><strong>Charles Meneveau<\/strong><\/a> or <a href=\"mailto:brogows1@jhu.edu\"><strong>Barbara Adamson<\/strong><\/a> by:<br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"color: #990000;\">December 15,<\/span><span style=\"color: #990000;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>2025<\/span>. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nominations should include:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>PDF copy of the published paper being nominated,<\/li>\n<li>CV of the student\/postdoc lead author, and<\/li>\n<li>Paragraph written by the adviser highlighting the essential novelty and contributions of the paper (if appropriate, the paragraph may contain quotations from the referee reviews received for the paper in question), as well as the unique contributions of the nominated student\/postdoc lead author to the paper.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>After the selection, the awardee will be invited to present a CEAFM seminar and receive the award at a date scheduled towards the end of the Fall semester.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #990000;\"><strong>2025 Winner<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>To be announced<\/p>\n<h4><strong><span style=\"color: #990000;\">2024 Winner<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Dr. Hanxun Yao for his paper:\u00a0\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/jfm.2023.808\"><em>Entropy and Fluctuation Relations in Isotropic Turbulence<\/em><\/a>\u201d co-authored with Tamer Zaki, and Charles Meneveau and published in the Journal of Fluid Mechanics.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #990000;\"><strong>2023 Winner<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/ceafm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Mengze-Wang-Award.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-32056\" src=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/ceafm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Mengze-Wang-Award.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"715\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/ceafm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Mengze-Wang-Award.jpg 715w, https:\/\/engineering.jhu.edu\/ceafm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Mengze-Wang-Award-300x215.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 715px) 100vw, 715px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nDr. Menze Wang for his paper: \u00a0\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/jfm.2021.268\"><em>State Estimation in Turbulent Channel Flow from Limited Observations<\/em><\/a>\u201d co-authored with Tamer Zaki and published in the Journal of Fluid Mechanics,<\/p>\n<h4><strong><span style=\"color: #990000;\">2022 Winner<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Dr. Yinghe Qi for his paper: \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41467-022-28092-3\"><em>Fragmentation in Turbulence by Small Eddies<\/em><\/a>\u201d co-authored with Shiyong Tan, Noah Corbitt, Carl Urbanik, Ashwanth K.
