Chin-Pao (C.P.) Huang, Donald C. Phillips Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, has been named the 2008 recipient of the Francis Alison Award, the University's highest faculty honor. Established by the Board of Trustees in 1978 to recognize the scholarship, professional achievements, and dedication of the UD faculty, the award consists of a $10,000 prize and confers membership in the Alison Society.
Chin-Pao Huang, Donald C. Phillips Professor, and Samuel P. Myoda (PhDEnvE2001) have been selected by the Environmental Water Resources Institute (EWRI) to receive the 2008 Wesley W. Horner Award for their paper "Sonochemical Treatment of Wastewater Effluent for the Removal of Pathogenic Protozoa Exemplified by Cryptosporidium."
The time, energy, and emotion that Dentel has put into EWB were recognized in May 2008, when he was selected to receive the Slocomb Excellence in Teaching Award from the College of Engineering. Dentel was cited for his "caring attitude toward students in the College and demonstration of an exemplary commitment to public service, community involvement, and innovative activity."

Highlights
Swash zone shear stresses
Here, narrow regions of high onshore directed stress are observed to occur alternately between broad regions of smaller magnitude offshore-directed stress provided by skewed wave motions in the surf zone. Variations in the stress magnitude are also observed along the wave propagation direction and are related to the variations in wave dissipation at the bed and likely a lower-frequency wave component in the wave basin.
