STUDENT PAPER CONTEST
The Fluids Engineering Divisions of ASME and JSME are organizing a Student Paper Contest for the 4th ASME/JSME Joint Fluids Engineering Conference, July 6 - 10, 2003, Sheraton Hotel Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii, under the sponsorship of FLUENT Inc.
The Student Paper Contest may be entered by:
- Undergraduate students
- Recent baccalaureate engineers (i.e. graduation after April 2002)
- Beginning graduate students (i.e. start of graduate studies after April 2002)
Contest participants should submit a 500-word abstract on research or development in all areas of Fluid Mechanics. Of particular interest for this year are studies in the following three areas:
- Bio-Mechanics
- Flow Visualization
- Atmospheric Flows
The student project can be completed either in a university or in industry. Based on the abstract, contestants will be invited to submit a full-length (approximately 6000-word) paper. The manuscripts will be reviewed by the ASME/JSME FED Student Paper Contest Committee. The authors of the eight best papers will be selected as finalists. Based on the recommendations of the reviewers, finalists will revise their papers to match ASME publication guidelines. The revised finalized papers will be published in the conference proceedings. In addition, each finalist will be awarded a $1,000 prize to defray the expenses of attending and presenting their paper at the meeting in Hawaii. At the meeting, the three best papers will be selected and awarded gold ($500), silver ($300), and bronze ($200) standings.
