Program SummaryThe proposed program will organize a U.S./Africa Materials Workshop in Cape Town,South Africa. The workshop will be organized by Professors Wole Soboyejo and AlanNeedleman in the U.S., and Professors Daya Reddy and Bob Tait in South Africa. It will be heldduring the second week of January in 2005. It will feature invited speakers from the U.S. andAfrica that are working at the interface between mechanics and materials. The topics of theworkshop will include: micro-electro-mechanical systems; nano-mechanics and nano-materials;thin films; dislocation mechanics and plasticity length scales; heterogeneous materials andinfrastructure materials. Short courses on mechanics and materials will also be organized forstudents at the end of the workshop. Following the workshop, the U.S./Africa Materials Institutewill implement collaborative research plans that will be developed in panel discussions that willoccur after the technical presentations.

计划摘要拟议的计划将组织一个美国/南非开普敦的非洲材料研讨会。该研讨会将由Wole Soboyejo教授和AlanNeedleman教授在美国组织，以及南非的Daya Reddy和Bob Tait教授。会议将于2005年1月的第二个星期举行。来自美国和非洲的特邀演讲者将在力学和材料之间的界面上工作。研讨会的主题将包括：微机电系统;纳米力学和纳米材料;薄膜;位错力学和塑性长度尺度;异质材料和基础结构材料。在工作坊结束时，还将为学生组织关于力学和材料的短期课程。研讨会结束后，美国/非洲材料研究所将实施合作研究计划，该计划将在技术演示后的小组讨论中制定。
