This award supports the Training and Research Experiences in Nonlinear Dynamics (TREND) REU Site at the University of Maryland. The main goal of the program is to involve undergraduate students in frontier research on nonlinear dynamics. The program is also aimed at helping undergraduate students prepare for graduate school, and for research and teaching positions throughout industry and academia. The program will involve approximately 10 students who will spend 11 weeks in the summer on campus involved in research. Examples of possible theoretical and experimental research topics include: nanophotonic devices, spatio-temporal chaos and synchronism of chaotic systems, chaotic microwave circuits, granular media, development of singularities in fluids and solids, nonlinear dynamics in optical systems and charged particle beams, magnetic reconnection, and turbulence and nonlinear phenomena in plasmas. Seminar series will complement and reinforce the learning experience. Student projects and presentations will be judged on the final day of the program, and winners will be funded to present their work at a national conference.

该奖项支持马里兰大学非线性动力学 (TREND) REU 站点的培训和研究经验。 该项目的主要目标是让本科生参与非线性动力学的前沿研究。该计划还旨在帮助本科生为研究生院以及整个行业和学术界的研究和教学职位做好准备。 该项目将涉及大约 10 名学生，他们将在夏季在校园里度过 11 周的时间进行研究。 可能的理论和实验研究主题的例子包括：纳米光子器件、时空混沌和混沌系统的同步性、混沌微波电路、粒状介质、流体和固体中奇点的发展、光学系统和带电粒子束中的非线性动力学、磁重联以及等离子体中的湍流和非线性现象。系列研讨会将补充和加强学习经验。学生项目和演讲将在项目的最后一天进行评审，获胜者将获得资助在全国会议上展示他们的作品。
