Dr. Ahmet Aydilek, Assistant Professor in Civil and Environmental Engineering recently received the Outstanding Achievement Award from the Industrial Fabrics Association International (IFAI) in geosynthetics projects category for his work on a U.S. EPA Superfund site.
Dr. Aydilek served as an engineer for the project, which involved capping 22 acres of soft and highly compressible sludge in the lagoon system of the site using a geotextile. The site was recently included within the boundaries of the new Capital Springs Centennial State Park because of its enhanced recreational and aesthetic value. Dr. Aydilek also received the Engineering Achievement Award from the American Society of Civil Engineers last year for his work on the same project.
