Mathematical Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships

福尔摩斯数学科学博士后研究奖学金是颁发给最近获得数学科学博士学位的人。这些奖项是为国家科学事业的未来活力作出贡献的一种手段。随着数学科学研究人员扩大与其他学科的互动，随着数学本身各个领域之间的相互作用增加，博士后研究和培训的机会变得越来越重要。该奖学金旨在允许获奖者选择对其未来科学发展有最大影响的研究环境。该奖学金旨在提供24个月的支持，分为18个学年月和三个夏季月。接受者可以选择(1)研究奖学金选项，允许在三年期间的任何18个学年的全职支持，间隔不少于连续3个月；或(2)研究指导选项，允许18个月的学年支持作为9个月的全职支持和18个月的半时间支持。本奖学金在任何日历年度的夏季资助不得超过两个月。Richard Holmes在纽约州立大学石溪分校获得博士学位，将在纽约大学Marco Avellaneda教授的指导下进行研究。该研究是在流体力学领域，特别是与流体通过多孔介质流动有关的非线性问题。

9508860 Holmes The Mathematical Sciences Postdoctoral Research Fellowships are awards to recent recipients of doctoral degrees in the mathematical sciences. These awards are a means of contributing to the future vitality of the scientific effort of the nation. As researchers in the mathematical sciences expand their interactions with other disciplines, and as the interplay increases between the various areas of mathematics itself, opportunities for postdoctoral research and training are becoming increasingly important. The Fellowships are designed to permit awardees to choose research environments that will have maximal impact on their future scientific development. The fellowship is designed to provide 24 months of support divided into 18 academic-year months and three periods of two summer months. The recipient may choose (1) the Research Fellowship option which allows for full time support for any 18 academic year months in a three year period, in intervals not shorter than 3 consecutive months or (2) the Research Instructorship option which allows the 18 months of academic year support to be taken as nine months of full time support and 18 months of half time support. Not more than two months of summer support from this Fellowship may be received in any calendar year. Richard Holmes received his doctoral degree from the State University of New York at Stony Brook and will pursue research under the guidance of Professor Marco Avellaneda at New York University. The research is in the area of fluid mechanics, specifically nonlinear problems associated with the flow of fluids through a porous media.
