Y. professor emeritus receives top NAE honor
Among Youd's accomplishments are the development of techniques for mapping liquefaction hazards that are widely used in earthquake hazard evaluation today. He was instrumental in placing monitors at field sites to assess the development of liquefaction during future earthquakes and documented field conditions and soil properties at many liquefaction sites.
Youd's other awards include the Superior Performance Award from the U.S. Department of the Interior, the Karl G. Maeser Research and Creative Arts Award from BYU, the Utah Engineering Educator of the Year and the Sigma Xi Annual Lecture Award from BYU, among others.
