William Holland Hall Professor,PrattSchool of Engineering,Duke University

Dr. Dowell is an elected member of the National Academy of Engineering, an Honorary Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) and a Fellow of the American Academy of Mechanics and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. He has also served as Vice President for Publications and member of the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of the AIAA; as a member of the United States Air Force Scientific Advisory Board; the Air Force Studies Board, the Aerospace Science and Engineering Board and the Board on Army Science and Technology of the National Academies; the AGARD (NATO) advisory panel for aerospace engineering, as President of the American Academy of Mechanics, as Chair of the US National Committee on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics and as Chairman of the National Council of Deans of Engineering. From the AIAA he has received the Structure, Structural Dynamics and Materials Award, the Von Karman Lectureship the Crichlow Trust Prize and the Reed Aeronautics Award; from the ASME he has received the Spirit of St. Louis Medal, the Den Hartog Award and Lyapunov Medal; and he has also received the Guggenheim Medal which is awarded jointly by the AIAA, ASME, AHS and SAE.

He has served on the boards of visitors of several universities and is a consultant to government, industry and universities in science and technology policy and engineering education as well as on the topics of his research.

Dr. Dowell research ranges over the topics of aeroelasticity, nonsteady aerodynamics, nonlinear dynamics and structures. In addition to being author of over three hundred research articles, Dr. Dowell is the author or co-author of four books, "Aeroelasticity of Plates and Shells", "A Modern Course in Aeroelasticity", "Studies in Nonlinear Aeroelasticity" and “Dynamics of Very High Dimensional Systems”. His teaching spans the disciplines of acoustics, aerodynamics, dynamics and structures.

Dr. Dowell received his B.S. degree from the University of Illinois and his S.M. and Sc.D. degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Before coming to Duke as Dean of the School of Engineering, serving from 1983-1999, he taught at M.I.T. and Princeton. He has also worked with the Boeing Company.

學術成就簡介：

Earl H. Dowell（厄爾休道爾）是美國杜克大學William Holland Hall教授，美國工程院院士，美國航空航天個人最高榮譽獎獲得者。

Earl H. Dowell在氣動彈性、結構動力學和非定常空氣動力學研究方向取得先驅性貢獻，所完成的研究工作對推動航空航天領域技術發展產生了巨大的影響。標志性研究結果有：

1）揭示壁板顫振的非線性本質特征對解決飛行器壁板破壞問題起到了決定性貢獻。

2）首位將幾何非線性引入到旋翼氣動彈性問題研究中，給出的非線性梁結構基本方程被應用于無鉸鏈旋翼懸停、前飛實驗研究，促進了直升機旋翼性能的大幅提高。

3）大力推進Reduced Order Modeling (ROM)建模理論方法研究，極大的提升了計算結構動力學、計算流體力學問題研究的計算能效。

目前，Earl H. Dowell發表近350篇學術論文，近5年的年平均引用次為1250+，i10指數為273。在其發表的論文中，“Modeling of Fluid-Structure Interaction”論文是Annual review of Fluid Mechanics期刊（SCI分區，力學排名第一、物理學Top期刊，IF為12.0+）中，流固耦合問題引用次數最多的文獻。《A Modern Course in Aeroelasticity》（四十多年不斷更新、目前為第五版）被譽為氣動彈性領域內的先鋒性著作。

除航空航天個人最高榮譽獎AIAA Reed Aeronautics Award外，Earl H. Dowell還獲得了Guggenheim Medal, Lyapunov Award,Walter J. And Angelina J. Crichlow Trust Prize和Theodore Van Karman Lectureship等十余項重量級學術獎勵。

此外，Earl H. Dowell還擔任了AIAA Honor fellow（榮譽理事）, American Academy of Mechanics (AAM) fellow和American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME) fellow等學術職務。
