U.S.-Sweden Cooperative Study of a Linkage Between Rutgers University - Industry Cooperative Research Center Projects in Ceramics and Swedish Counterparts.

这一奖项将使S。乔治沃尔特斯和他的一些 罗格斯大学-工业合作研究所的同事们 中心陶瓷研究的可行性和设计的一个 中心选定的研究人员与一组 瑞典的研究人员和组织，他们和美国人一起， 对陶瓷的竞争前研究感兴趣。 几 潜在成员组织的瑞典代表 还将研究建立联系所需的条件， 联合会议将在美国和瑞典举行， 研究结果。 联合研究小组将记录 潜在参与者的利益、需求和要求 并将设计一个组织和行动计划， 国际合作 美国和瑞典拟议的合作研究网络 研究人员对两国都有好处。 罗格斯中心 在陶瓷和纤维晶须研究方面很有实力，包括 溶胶-凝胶 瑞典科学家擅长烧结， 等静压和注浆成型。 联系将加强 在这两个国家的研究，并将使参与者获得 新思想、新技术和更多有能力的研究人员 比没有这种正式的合作安排更快。

This award will enable Dr. S. George Walters and some of his colleagues at the Rutgers University-Industry Cooperative Research Center for Ceramics to study the feasibility and design of a linkage between selected researchers in the Center and a group of researchers and organizations in Sweden who, with the Americans, are interested in pre-competitive research in ceramics. Several Swedish representatives from the potential member organizations will also study the conditions needed for the linkage, and three joint meetings will be held in the U.S. and Sweden to integrate the findings of the study. The joint study group will document the interests, needs, and requirements of the potential participants and will design an organization and operational plan for the international cooperation. The proposed collaborative research network of U.S. and Swedish researchers has advantages for both countries. The Rutgers Center is strong in ceramics and fiber whisker research, including sol-gel. The Swedish scientists are skilled in sintering, hot isostatic pressing, and slip casting. The linkage will strengthen research in both countries and will give the participants access to new ideas, new technologies, and additional capable researchers more quickly than without this formal cooperative arrangement.
