There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Prof. Suresh Menon has been elected an American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) Fellow. The AAAS is the world's largest general scientific society and becoming a Fellow is an honor bestowed upon members by their peers. Fellows are recognized for meritorious efforts to advance science or its applications.
Prof. Menon's citation reads: "for distinguished and innovative contributions to the field of multi-scale computational simulation and modeling of turbulent combustion in power and propulsion systems."
Prof. Menon earned his BS and MS in Aeronautical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology and his PhD in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Maryland. He is a world-renowned expert in large-eddy simulation of turbulent reacting and non-reacting flows, and has developed unique simulation capabilities to investigate these processes in propulsion systems such as gas turbines, ramjet, scramjet and rocket engines. He is the Director of the Computational Combustion Laboratory in the School of Aerospace Engineering at Georgia Tech.
