Planning Grant for an I/UCRC for Wood-Based Composites Center 0855983 Virginia Polytechnic; Charles Frazier 0855888 Oregon State University; Frederick Kamke Virginia Polytechnic (VT) and Oregon State University (OSU) are collaborating to establish the Wood-Based Composites Center, with VT as the lead institution. The proposed Center will advance the materials science of wood and wood-based composites, by improving the understanding of how wood interacts with adhesives, sealants, and composite manufacturing variables. The Center will promote research in building systems, mechanical and adhesive fastening between wood and non-wood materials, as well as novel material testing and modeling. VT and OSU plan to use the NSF planning grant fund to hold a meeting with prospective industrial partners, and to develop an initial research agenda of sufficient commercial interest that attendees will be willing to invest in and sustain the Center. The development of more advanced wood-based composites to be used in applications that currently depend primarily on steel, aluminum or concrete would have a positive impact on the environment and help combat climate change. The proposed Center plans to attract graduate and undergraduate students from a variety of disciplines, and to provide them with an opportunity to interact with industry leaders, thus giving them an understanding of how to apply and transfer fundamental research and impact the industry and the economy.

木基复合材料中心I/UCRC规划补助金0855983弗吉尼亚理工大学; Charles Frazier 0855888俄勒冈州州立大学; Frederick Kamke 弗吉尼亚理工大学（VT）和俄勒冈州州立大学（OSU）正在合作建立木基复合材料中心，以VT为牵头机构。 拟议的中心将通过提高对木材如何与粘合剂，密封剂和复合材料制造变量相互作用的理解来推进木材和木基复合材料的材料科学。 该中心将促进建筑系统、木材和非木材材料之间的机械和粘合剂紧固以及新型材料测试和建模方面的研究。 VT和OSU计划利用NSF规划拨款基金与潜在的工业合作伙伴举行会议，并制定具有足够商业利益的初步研究议程，以便与会者愿意投资并维持该中心。开发更先进的木基复合材料，用于目前主要依赖钢、铝或混凝土的应用，将对环境产生积极影响，并有助于应对气候变化。该中心计划吸引来自不同学科的研究生和本科生，并为他们提供与行业领导者互动的机会，从而使他们了解如何应用和转移基础研究并影响行业和经济。
