Fifth Interdisciplinary Transport Phenomena Conference Conference Chair: S.S. SadhalConference Objectives and Intellectual MeritThe main objectives of the conference are to disseminate and exchange new technical information and ideas among the various scientists and engineers working in Science and Technology with Fluid, Thermal, Biological, Materials and Space Sciences, and focusing on Transport Phenomena. Under this common theme, the conference will provide for the exchange of information on new scientific results, particularly concerning interdisciplinary aspects. Transport Phenomena encompassing both heat and mass transfer is indeed ubiquitous to many areas in the natural sciences, as well as engineering. While research over the last two decades has provided significant new insight into various physical phenomena, the new and upcoming scientific problems have brought about the interdisciplinary dimension to modern scientific research. There is at present a need to provide direction for research in which fluid flow and other transport processes to form a common basis for many investigations. For example, in physiology and medicine, as well as materials processing, fluid, thermal and mass-transport aspects have gained primacy among various researchers, and the sharing of expertise has become a necessity for technical and scientific progress. Impact Funding from NSF will enable some of the key US-based organizers to participate in the conference, and also provide support to attract some top-level keynote speakers, and additionally give some support to students, women and under-represented minorities. The organizers have recognized the importance of providing a forum for the exchange of ideas from a diverse group of researchers belonging to various types of research organizations. The proposed conference will provide for the free flow of ideas under this common theme of "Transport Phenomena" to promote healthy new research programs, and seek to bring interaction whereby scientists may be able to compliment each others' diverse expertise in new areas of interdisciplinary character.

第五届跨学科传输现象会议主席：S.S. SadhalConference Objectives and Intellectual MeritThe会议的主要目标是传播和交流新的技术信息和想法之间的各种科学家和工程师在科学和技术工作与流体，热，生物，材料和空间科学，并侧重于传输现象。在这一共同主题下，会议将交流关于新的科学成果的信息，特别是关于跨学科方面的信息。包含传热和传质的传输现象确实在自然科学和工程的许多领域都是普遍存在的。虽然过去二十年的研究为各种物理现象提供了重要的新见解，但新的和即将出现的科学问题为现代科学研究带来了跨学科的维度。目前有必要为研究提供方向，其中流体流动和其他运输过程形成许多调查的共同基础。例如，在生理学和医学以及材料加工方面，流体、热和质量传输方面已成为各研究人员的首要问题，分享专门知识已成为技术和科学进步的必要条件。来自NSF的影响力资金将使一些主要的美国组织者能够参加会议，并提供支持以吸引一些顶级主题演讲者，并为学生，妇女和代表性不足的少数民族提供一些支持。组织者认识到，必须提供一个论坛，供属于各类研究组织的各种研究人员交流意见。拟议的会议将在“运输现象”这一共同主题下提供思想的自由交流，以促进健康的新研究项目，并寻求带来互动，使科学家能够在新的跨学科领域补充彼此的不同专业知识。
