This U.S.-Canada activity will support a workshop on cement hydration kinetics and modeling, to be held in Quebec, Canada in January 2009. Organized by the Dr. Joseph Biernacki of the Tennessee Technological University and Dr. Will Hansen of the University of Michigan, together with Dr. Jacques Marchand of Laval University-Canada, the workshop will be a working international meeting focused around seven topical thrusts: Modeling, Thermochemistry, Early Age Hydration Phenomena, Stage IV Hydration Phenomena, Pozzolans, Alternative Cement Systems and Geochemical View of Cement Hydration.Portland cement concrete is one of the world's most pervasive construction materials. Yet a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental processes involving hydration remains elusive. An important aim of this workshop is to introduce promising graduate students and early career researchers to careers in infrastructure materials. For this purpose, it will bring together some of the leading researchers in the field with early career scientists and students. The meeting will also increase the potential for transformative collaborative research that may lead to a consistent and universally accepted theory of how Portland cement is transformed; from its anhydrous constituents to the hydrate that forms the strength-bearing matrix of the most commonly used building material on Earth.

美国-加拿大的这项活动将支持将于2009年1月在加拿大魁北克举行的水泥水化动力学和建模研讨会。研讨会由田纳西理工大学的Joseph Biernacki博士和密歇根大学的Will Hansen博士与加拿大拉瓦尔大学的Jacques Marchand博士共同组织，将是一次国际工作性会议，重点关注七个主题：建模、热化学、早期水化现象、第四阶段水化现象、火山灰、替代水泥系统和水泥水化的地球化学观点。然而，对涉及水合作用的基本过程的全面理解仍然难以捉摸。该研讨会的一个重要目的是向有前途的研究生和早期职业研究人员介绍基础设施材料领域的职业。为此，它将把该领域的一些领先研究人员与早期职业科学家和学生聚集在一起。这次会议还将增加变革性合作研究的可能性，这些研究可能会导致关于波特兰水泥如何转变的一致和普遍接受的理论，从其无水成分到形成地球上最常用建筑材料的承重基质的水合物。
