Kijewski-Correa Receives Marshall Award
Tracy Kijewski-Correa, the Rooney
Family Assistant Professor of Civil Engineering and Geological Sciences,
received the Richard D. Marshall Student Award on June 2, 2005. The award
is given every four years at America’s Conference on Wind Engineering
for the best doctoral thesis in wind engineering experimental methods.
A faculty member at Notre Dame since 2003, Kijewski-Correa received her
B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. in civil engineering from Notre Dame. Her award-winning
thesis was entitled “Full-Scale Measurements and System Identification:
A Time Frequency Perspective.” Her research, which centered on
the next generation of analysis tools for wind effects, also discussed
a program of full-scale monitoring of wind-induced motion of tall buildings
using GPS technology.
Kijewski-Correa is the director of the DYNAMO lab where she studies structural
analysis, time-frequency signal analysis, and innovative structural systems
designs of tall buildings. Currently, the DYNAMO lab is working with
natural hazards researchers on the Chicago Full-scale Monitoring Program.
This project is the first-ever systematic full-scale validation of tall
building design. Three Chicago skyscrapers have been mounted with monitoring
devices that measure the buildings’ motions with the wind. Kijewski-Correa
uses this data to determine if the structures are responding to the wind
in accordance with their structural design.
