Robert Krasny from the University of Michigan, was awarded the status of Fellow[1] in the American Physical Society,[2] after he was nominated by his Division of Fluid Dynamics in 2007,[3] for "his many achievements in advancing particle methods and tree-code algorithms to allow exceptionally precise computations of vortex dynamics, and his insightful use of the resulting methods to increase the fundamental understanding of regular and chaotic phenomena in fluid flows." In 2012 he became one of the inaugural fellows of the American Mathematical Society.[4]
