Soheil Sadeghi Eshkevari, a structural engineering Ph.D. candidate, was recently awarded the 2019 Dominick J. DeMichele Scholarship from the Society for Experimental Mechanics (SEM).

The award is given to first-time presenters attending the International Modal Analysis Conference (IMAC), a conference and exhibition that focuses on structural dynamics as well as technical advancements supporting the field.

“This is a major achievement for Soheil,” says Dr. Shamim Pakzad, Sadeghi Eshkevari’s advisor and an associate professor of civil and environmental engineering, “as the award is the premier distinction for a student working in his area of research, and recipients are chosen from a large, international pool of applicants in civil, mechanical, and aerospace engineering.”
