Conference on Mathematical Modeling in Science and Technology, Madras, India, August 11-14, 1988, Group Travel Award in Indian Currency

说明：该项目支持美国科学家前往印度参加在马德拉斯举行的国际科学技术数学建模会议。印度组织者是印度马德拉斯印度理工学院数学系的S.N. Majhi博士。会议的目的是在包括工程科学、理论物理、生物医学系统、生态和环境研究、制造、能源和经济学在内的各个科学和技术领域，为问题开发和分析数学模型的专业人士之间交流思想和信息。重点放在现实世界的问题，并将模型的预测与现有的实验结果联系起来。参与者的多学科专业知识将提供来自不同应用的工具和想法的交流。会议记录计划发表。会议范围：会议组委会包括来自美国等西方九国和苏联的大量专家，以及印度塔塔基础研究所、印度科学研究所和印度理工学院的一些顶尖科学家。这次会议可能会加强这些国家科学家之间的信息和经验交流，并导致未来的合作，特别是美国和印度之间的合作。

Description: This project supports travel of U.S. scientists to India to participate in the International Conference on Mathematical Modeling in Science and Technology to be held in Madras. The Indian organizer is Dr. S.N. Majhi, Department of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Madras, India. The conference is aimed at exchange of ideas and information among professionals involved in developing and analyzing mathematical models of problems arising in various scientific and technical areas including engineering sciences, theoretical physics, biomedical systems, ecology and environmental studies, manufacturing, energy and economics. Emphasis to be placed on real world problems and correlating the predictions from models with available experimental findings. The multidisciplinary expertise of participants is to provide for exchange of tools and ideas from different applications. Proceedings are planned to be published. Scope: The conference organizing committee includes a large number of experts from the U.S. and nine other western countries and the USSR in addition to some of India's top scientists from Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Indian Institute of Science and the Indian Institutes of Technology. The conference is likely to enhance the exchange of information and experiences between the scientists from these countries and to lead to future collaboration especially between the U.S. and India.
