"Population Balance Modeling of Particulate Systems" Conference held in Kona, Hawaii

【摘要】cts -0001336，联合工程师信托人charles V. Freiman和John A. herbst2000年1月23日至28日在夏威夷科纳召开的“微粒系统人口平衡建模”会议的特邀演讲者和美国年轻研究人员的部分旅费已被请求。本次会议的目的是评估该领域当前的研究成果，确定研究需求和新的研究方向和技术发展。来自学术界和工业界的工程师、化学家和物理学家将尝试确定共同的原则和方法，并开展合作。会议分为9个技术部分，包括建模和仿真概述、矿物系统、生物/环境系统、先进材料、化学/石油系统、模型解决方案、研究需求和方向以及应用。来自美洲、欧洲、亚洲和澳大利亚的知名和年轻研究人员将参加。大约有80人参加。本次研讨会将讨论具有广泛相关性的微粒系统建模主题。尽管它很重要，但在过去的5-10年里，这一领域受到的关注较少，对研究进行新的重新评估和重新定向是及时的。有充足的时间进行提问和讨论。预计讲习班将成为参与者，特别是年轻研究人员讨论实际技术问题、合作和专业活动的互动论坛。会议的目的之一是促进学术界和工业界在人口平衡建模领域的研究人员之间建立长期合作关系。

AbstractCTS-0001336, United Engr TrusteesCharles V. Freiman and John A. HerbstPartial travel support for invited speakers and U.S. young researchers participating at the "Population Balance Modeling of Particulate Systems" conference in Kona, Hawaii, on January 23-28, 2000, has been requested. The objective of this meeting is to evaluate the current research results in the field, and identify research needs and new research directions and technological developments. Engineers, chemists and physicists from academe and industry will attempt to identify common principles and approaches and develop collaborations. The conference is organized in nine technical sections, including overviews on modeling and simulation, mineral systems, biological/environmental systems, advanced materials, chemical/petroleum systems, model solutions, research needs and directions, and applications. Established and young researchers from Americas, Europe, Asia and Australia will participate. There will be about 80 participants. This workshop is addressing topics modeling particulate systems with a broad area of relevance. Despite its importance, this field received less attention in the last 5-10 years and a new reassessment and redirection of the research is timely. Ample time will be allowed for questions and discussions. The workshop is expected to be an interactive forum for participants, particularly younger researchers, to debate actual technical issues, collaborations and professional activities. A purpose of the meeting is to facilitate the establishment of long term cooperation among researchers in academe and industry in the area of population balance modeling.
