CBET-0832317HrenyaIntellectual Merit. The purpose of this proposal is to solicit funds in support of participants to the 2009 Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA) Workshop on Dense, Granular Flows (January 5-9, 2009; Cambridge, United Kingdom). Granular flows are prevalent in a range of natural and industrial systems, yet a basic understanding of many phenomena is lacking. The IMA workshop provides a unique forum for the exchange of fresh scientific ideas. A guiding principle of this workshop includes the presentation of new, unpublished work followed by free, unhampered discussion among participants from disciplines that normally do not intersect, namely, the physics and engineering communities. This IMA workshop will include speakers from a wide range of disciplines, including Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, Mechanics, and Materials Science, and will involve participants from around the world.In order to move beyond incremental research, cross-fertilization of participants is needed, which involves not only bringing these scientists together, but also providing an environment that promotes their interaction. The structure of the IMA workshop accomplishes this task via a smaller number of participants (~60), formal discussion periods after every talk, poster sessions, and shared meals and onsite housing.Broader Impacts. With the help of NSF, financial support will be provided to emerging scientists (students, postdocs, and junior faculty) and underrepresented groups to ensure a diverse audience. The diversity of disciplines and promotion of intensive discussions will provide an environment in which new collaborations can be forged to help tackle longstanding problems, and one in which young scholars can intermingle with established researchers. Such interaction is critical in helping to address the national need for training of U.S. students in the area of particle science.

CBET-0832317 Hrenya智力优点。本提案的目的是为2009年数学及其应用研究所（IMA）密集颗粒流研讨会（2009年1月5日至9日;英国剑桥）的与会者募集资金。 颗粒流在一系列自然和工业系统中普遍存在，但对许多现象缺乏基本的了解。IMA研讨会为交流新的科学思想提供了一个独特的论坛。本次研讨会的指导原则包括新的，未发表的工作，然后由自由，不受阻碍的讨论，通常不相交的学科，即物理和工程社区的参与者之间的介绍。本次IMA研讨会将邀请来自工程、物理、数学、力学和材料科学等多个学科的演讲者，并将邀请来自世界各地的与会者参加。为了超越增量研究，需要与会者之间的交流，这不仅涉及将这些科学家聚集在一起，还涉及提供一个促进他们互动的环境。IMA研讨会的结构通过较少的参与者（约60人）、每次演讲后的正式讨论、海报会议、共享膳食和现场住宿来完成这一任务。更广泛的影响。在NSF的帮助下，将为新兴科学家（学生，博士后和初级教师）和代表性不足的群体提供财政支持，以确保多样化的受众。学科的多样性和促进深入讨论将提供一个环境，在这个环境中，可以建立新的合作，以帮助解决长期存在的问题，并在这个环境中，年轻学者可以与成熟的研究人员交流。这种互动对于帮助满足美国学生在粒子科学领域的国家培训需求至关重要。
