Conference: Symposium on Multiphase Flow, Microstructured Media, Diffusion and Biological Transport at the 26th Annual Meeting of the Fine Particle Society

摘要CTS-9525791 Nitsche，L.C.，Nitsche，J.M. 伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校 建议国家科学基金会帮助支持为第26届微粒学会年会（芝加哥，1995年8月22-25日）组织的关于多相流、微结构介质、扩散和生物运输的专题讨论会。 除了提供一个论坛，展示运输现象的最新进展，专题讨论会有两个主要目标。 首先，该计划经过精心设计，将流体力学和运输现象的研究人员与孔和表面扩散，微结构介质（液晶，沸石，膜等）领域的专家聚集在一起。和细胞生物学（间隙连接通道、胞吐融合孔等）。 这种合并将促进跨学科的接触，以一个罕见的广泛和全面的程度。 第二，研讨会将作为流体力学/流体颗粒系统研究人员与细颗粒协会相当大的工业选区之间联系的焦点，代表纳米颗粒和磁性颗粒技术，颗粒表征和分离，过滤，粉末技术，洁净室技术和制药。 研讨会的新功能包括：（一）资助研究生参与和海报会议致力于研究生研究;和（二）圆桌讨论，以确定关键的开放问题之间的接口运输和生物学，运输和微结构材料。 专题讨论会和圆桌讨论会的结果将在《颗粒和加工科学与技术》杂志的专刊上发表。

ABSTRACT CTS-9525791 Nitsche, L.C., Nitsche, J.M. University of Illinois Chicage It is proposed for the NSF to help support a Symposium on Multiphase Flow, Microstructure Media, Diffusion and Biological Transport being organized for the 26th Annual Meeting of the Fine Particle Society (Chicago, 22-25 August 1995). Beyond furnishing a forum for exposition of the most recent advances in transport phenomena, the Symposium has two key objectives. First, the program has been carefully designed to bring researchers in fluid mechanics and transport phenomena together with specialists in the fields of pore and surface diffusion, microstructure media (liquid crystals, zeolites, membranes, etc.) and cell biology (gap junction channels, exocytotic fusion pores, etc.). This amalgamation will promote interdisciplinary contact to an uncommonly broad and comprehensive extent. Second, the Symposium will serve as a focal point for contact between researchers in fluid mechanics/fluid-particle systems and the sizable industrial constituency of the Fine Particle Society, representing nanoparticle and magneto-particle technology, particle characterization and separation, filtration, powder technology, clean room technology, and pharmaceuticals. Novel features of the Symposium include (I) subsidized graduate student participation and a poster session dedicated to graduate research; and (ii) a round-table discussion for the identification of key open problems at the interface between transport and biology, and between transport and microstructure materials. Results of the Symposium and the round-table discussion will be disseminated in a dedicated issue of the journal Particulate and Processing Science and Technology.
