0456406DasguptaThis award supports the participation of American scientists in a U.S.-Cambodia joint workshop for scientists and engineers on the structural deformations at the historic site of Angkor in Cambodia to be held in Phnom Penh, Cambodia in December 2005. The co-organizers are Professor Gautam Dasgupta at Columbia University in New York and Professor Abhay Pattinaik, at the Build Bright University in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The purpose of the workshop is to explore some unconventional challenges in civil engineering relative to issues of sustainable development at the World Heritage Site of Angkor in Cambodia. This would include mechanics of materials, stochastic computation, computer graphics and animation for CAD. Designing a methodology that uses remote sensing, geographic information systems, and distributed computing technologies will be based on knowledge of the theories and principles underlying urban development, cultural dynamics and environmental forces. The quantitative system will allow for better analysis and management of the evolving social and environmental systems. The co-organizers have complementary scientific expertise in the field. This enables them to evaluate and attract the best science and engineering researchers to participate. This project should lead to other areas of possible support such as field research with ground penetrating radar and software engineering for Geographical Information Systems to initiate infrastructure development for research and education. The seminar organizers have made a special effort to involve postdocs, graduate and undergraduate students as both participants and observers. The exchange of ideas and data with Cambodian experts in the field will enable U.S. participants to advance their own work, and will set the stage for future collaborative projects. Following the seminar the organizers plan to establish a workshop web page. Conference proceedings will be published on this web site.

该奖项支持美国科学家参加将于2005年12月在柬埔寨金边举行的美国-柬埔寨科学家和工程师联合研讨会，讨论柬埔寨历史遗迹吴哥窟的结构变形问题。联合组织者是纽约哥伦比亚大学的高塔姆·达斯古普塔教授和柬埔寨金边建设光明大学的阿巴伊·帕蒂奈克教授。研讨会的目的是探讨与世界遗产柬埔寨吴哥窟的可持续发展有关的土木工程方面的一些非常规挑战。这将包括材料力学，随机计算，计算机图形学和CAD动画。设计一种使用遥感、地理信息系统和分布式计算技术的方法，将以城市发展、文化动态和环境力量背后的理论和原则知识为基础。定量系统将有助于更好地分析和管理不断变化的社会和环境系统。共同组织者在该领域具有互补的科学专业知识。这使他们能够评估和吸引最优秀的科学和工程研究人员参与。该项目应导致其他可能得到支助的领域，例如利用探地雷达进行实地研究和地理信息系统软件工程，以便开始发展研究和教育的基础设施。研讨会组织者特别努力让博士后、研究生和本科生作为参与者和观察员。与柬埔寨在该领域的专家交流想法和数据将使美国参与者能够推进他们自己的工作，并将为未来的合作项目奠定基础。研讨会结束后，组织者计划建立一个研讨会网页。会议记录将在本网站公布。
