François Frenkiel Award for Fluid Mechanics
The Division of Fluid Dynamics awards The François Frenkiel award in recognition of significant contributions to fluid mechanics that have been published in Physics of Fluids during the preceding year by young investigators. The selection of the winner is determined by Frenkiel Award Committee and is presented each year at the DFD Annual Meeting in November.
