7. Awards Subcommittee Technical Awards Available from AIAA Structures, Structural Dynamics, & Materials Award Established in 1967, the Structures, Structural Dynamics, & Materials Award is presented to an individual who has been responsible for an outstanding sustained technical or scientific contribution in aerospace structures, structural dynamics, or materials. It is not presented in the years that the Walter J. and Angeline H. Crichlow Trust Prize, AIAA-ASC James H. Starnes Award or Ashley Award for Aeroelasticity are presented. This biennial award (even numbered years) is generally presented at the AIAA Science and Technology (SCITECH) Forum. Nomination Deadline: 1 July of the year prior to the presentation Appendix 6

8. Awards Subcommittee Technical Awards Available from AIAA Ashley Award for Aeroelasticity The AIAA Ashley Award for Aeroelasticity recognizes outstanding contributions to the understanding and application of aeroelastic phenomena.  It commemorates the accomplishments of Prof. Holt Ashley, who dedicated his professional life to the advancement of aerospace sciences and engineering and had a profound impact on the fields of aeroelasticity, unsteady aerodynamics, aeroservoelasticity, and multidisciplinary optimization. The award is presented every four years, generally at the AIAA Science and Technology Forum (SCITECH).  The next award presentation will be in 2017. Nomination Deadline: 1 July of the year prior to presentation Appendix 6
