He was also in charge of research on turbulence and transition at the Applied Research Laboratory. In 1977 Lumley joined Cornell University where he was the Professor Emeritus of Mechanical Engineering and Aerospace Engineering until his death in May 2015.

What features are available?Webcams come with a wide variety of features that are designed to create the best possible quality for streaming and recorded video. What mounting options are available for webcams?Most models feature a freestanding base or a clip. V ubv49 logitech drivers for mac. If you’re using the camera for security, this style makes it easy to conceal the device on a bookshelf. Other models use a clip that fastens to the top edge of your monitor or laptop screen, placing it at an ideal height for video chats and conference calls. Freestanding devices can be positioned on any flat surface, such as a desk.

Honors and awards[edit]

Lumley received the 1990 Fluid Dynamics Prize of American Physical Society, 'For his outstanding contributions to the understanding of turbulent flow, in particular, the fundamental structure of turbulent shear flows, the effects of drag-reducing additives, and his widely recognized contributions to the statistical theory of turbulence, and for his personal and intellectual leadership in the international fluid dynamics community, including his educational films and books, and his long active devotion to the Division of Fluid Dynamics of The American Physical Society.'^[3] He has also received several other awards, including:

• Fluid and Plasma Dynamics Award of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 1982^[4]
• Timoshenko Medal, 1993^[5]
• Recipient of two honorary doctorate degrees (honoris causa) from the French University System, in Lyon and in Poitiers.
• Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics
• Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences
• Member of the National Academy of Engineering
