Moan-Faltinsen Best Paper Award established
In connection with the 70 Year Anniversary Seminar and Celebration for Prof. Faltinsen and Moan last year, the Moan-Faltinsen Foundation was established at the department of marine technology.
The purpose of the foundation is to promote research in the main areas of the two professors, marine structures and marine hydrodynamics, to encourage the young generation to pursue high level research and to reward young students or researchers in the form of an Best Paper Award for their outstanding work.
The Moan-Faltinsen Best Paper Award will be awarded to maximum two papers annually, one in marine structures and one in marine hydrodynamics. The award winner of each paper will be rewarded 10 000 NOK with a certificate signed by Profs. Moan and Faltinsen, the Head of Department as well as the selection committee.
