Support for a Workshop Entitled: Materials Science of Concrete - Whither Now?

正在计划于2000年4月举办一个关于混凝土材料科学的讲习班，以确定今后利用材料科学的原则和工具进行混凝土研究的机会。该提案要求美国国家科学基金会提供10,000美元来支持该研讨会。该研讨会将为混凝土材料的科学、工程和教育活动做出很大贡献。它将帮助研究界确定关于这类重要材料的研究计划。它将使具体研究与材料科学直接联系起来。并将开放讨论可能在具体研究中有应用的材料作用的当前主题。研讨会的总体重点将是材料科学的最新发展在胶凝材料未来研究中的应用。具体的主题将包括：表面化学，显微镜，成像，计算，化学，光谱技术，和运输。

A Workshop is being planned for April 2000 on materials science of concrete to define opportunities for future on concrete using the principles and tools of materials science. The proposal requests $10,000 from NSF to support this workshop. The workshop will contribute much to the scientific, engineering, and educational activities intake area of concrete materials. It will help the research community define its research program regarding this important class of materials. It will keep concrete research directly linked to materials science. And it will open for discussion current topics in materials acting that may have application in concrete research. The overall focus of the workshop will be applications of current developments in materials science to future research in cementitious materials. Specific topics will include: surface chemistry, microscopy, imaging, computational, chemistry, spectroscopic techniques, and transport.
