Eugene E. Lundquist (NACA, USA) (1907 - 1998)

Biography:
Dr. Lundquist earned a B.S. in civil engineering from the University of Nebraska in 1928 and after working at NACA in Hampton, he received an honorary Ph.D. from the University of Nebraska in the 1940s. He continued his work at NASA Langley Research Center, rose to be division chief of structures research and retired as head of theoretical structures group in 1963 after 34 years of civil service. He was a past president of the Engineers Club of the Virginia Peninsula, and he was also a fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.
