Roger Ohayon joined Conservatoire National des Arts et Metiers (CNAM/Structural Mechanics and Coupled Systems Research Laboratory) as Professor Chair of Mechanics, where he is now Emeritus Professor, after completing research at Office National d'Etudes et Recherches Aerospatiales (ONERA), the aerospace research laboratory in France. He is a Fellow of several associations, including AIAA, ASME, IACM, and he is the recipient of the Gay-Lussac Humboldt Research Award, the SPIE's lifetime achievement award, the ASMS/ASME/AIAA Award, the Prandtl Award from Eccomas, several IACM Awards, the EASD Senior Prize, and the French Academy of Sciences Award. His expertise is in mechanical and computational modeling of fluid-structure interaction problems, structural acoustics, and smart structural systems. He is on the editorial board of thirteen international journals, including the International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, and Computational Mechanics, and is the associate editor of the Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures and the AIAA Journal. He is the co-editor of several books and the co-author of more than 100 publications in refereed international journals. He is the co-author of two books, Fluid-Structure Interaction (with H. J.-P. Morand, 1995) and Structural Acoustics and Vibration (with Christian Soize, 1998).
