0926841GranickThis proposal requests partial funding to support the 2009 Liquids, Chemistry & Physics of Gordon Research Conference: Today's Problems & Tomorrow's Solutions Challenging Our Needs in Liquids Research to be held August 2-6, 2009, Holderness School, Holderness, New Hampshire. Liquids the study of their engineering, chemistry, and physics affects us all. Controlling their structure and multiphase flow can either inhibit or enable technological advances from energy dissipation in pipelines, particle technology, and large engines, to body prostheses, MEMS and nanotechnological devices. Thus, in the 21st Century, liquid flows will continue to critically impact all aspects of our quality of life, health, wealth and livelihood and there are significant challenges to be addressed, many requiring paradigm shifts in both our approaches and thinking. The biennial Gordon Research Conference in Liquids is the premier basic research meeting for this research field and supporting scientists. Coming from all parts of the world, leading scientists from universities, national labs and industries gather with young scientists and newcomers to the field for one week of formal and informal discussions on state of the art issues in this multidisciplinary and multi scale subject. Today's Problems & Tomorrow's Solutions Challenging Our Needs in Liquids Research theme is our attempt to explore how underlying science, including recent advances in our understanding of multiphase flow, physics, chemistry and characterization tools can help solve the problems posed by tomorrows applications. Simultaneously we wish to examine the converse problem: how the perceived demands of tomorrow's innovative devices and applications can reveal the blanks in our current understandings and research capabilities. Intellectual Merit is that the speakers and discussion leaders chosen for the 2009 GRC Conference on Liquids are amongst the most eminent scholars and researchers in the world. Besides bringing many of the established intellectual leaders of the subject together to brainstorm the future, there is also a very strong commitment to fully involve practicing engineers and young scientists from a range of related disciplines so that they may not only learn of the latest research tools but also contribute to the paradigm changes in approach which are necessary for underpinning and enabling the future. The conference this year will emphasize the freshest topics from the viewpoints of theory, experiment, and computer simulation. This conference aims to cross-fertilize between different communities and to resist their balkanization. An important aspect of the conference in 2009, as distinct from past years, is the heavy representation by speakers and attendees in the field of multiphase flow. Broader Impact is to support both travel/registration support for students and young researchers who will markedly benefit from the networking experience which the Gordon Conferences provide but who could not otherwise be able to attend because of funding restrictions. On the final day we will have a session in which the best posters are presented orally. We will recognize the most outstanding posters, especially those presented by graduate students and postdocs. Among the speakers and discussion leaders, this conference has excellent representation from women. Applications for support will be open to all interested individuals, but if this conference becomes over subscribed, we will impose priorities in selecting attendees and special consideration will be given to students and postdocs who are female, and also under-represented ethnic minority or disabled individuals.

0926841 Granick该提案要求部分资金支持2009年液体，戈登研究会议的化学物理：今天的问题，明天的解决方案，满足我们在液体研究中的需求，将于2009年8月2日至6日在新罕布什尔州的霍洛维茨学校举行。液体的工程学、化学和物理学的研究影响着我们所有人。控制它们的结构和多相流可以抑制或实现从管道中的能量耗散、颗粒技术和大型发动机到身体假体、MEMS和纳米技术设备的技术进步。因此，在世纪，流动资金将继续对我们的生活质量、健康、财富和生计的各个方面产生重大影响，我们面临着重大挑战，其中许多挑战需要我们在方法和思维上进行范式转变。两年一度的液体戈登研究会议是该研究领域和支持科学家的首要基础研究会议。来自世界各地的大学，国家实验室和行业的领先科学家与年轻科学家和新来者聚集在一起，就这一多学科和多规模主题的最新问题进行为期一周的正式和非正式讨论。今天的问题明天的解决方案满足我们对液体的需求研究主题是我们试图探索基础科学，包括我们对多相流，物理，化学和表征工具的理解的最新进展如何帮助解决明天应用所带来的问题。与此同时，我们希望研究匡威的问题：未来创新设备和应用的感知需求如何揭示我们目前理解和研究能力的空白。学术上的优点是，为2009年GRC液体会议选择的演讲者和讨论领导者是世界上最杰出的学者和研究人员之一。除了将该主题的许多知名知识领袖聚集在一起集思广益，未来也有一个非常坚定的承诺，充分参与实践工程师和来自一系列相关学科的年轻科学家，使他们不仅可以学习最新的研究工具，而且还有助于方法的范式变化，这是支撑和实现未来所必需的。今年的会议将从理论、实验和计算机模拟的角度强调最新鲜的话题。这次会议的目的是在不同的社区之间进行交流，并抵制他们的巴尔干化。与往年不同，2009年会议的一个重要方面是多相流领域的发言者和与会者的代表性。更广泛的影响是支持学生和年轻研究人员的旅行/注册支持，他们将明显受益于戈登会议提供的网络经验，但由于资金限制，他们无法参加。在最后一天，我们将举行一次会议，口头介绍最好的海报。我们将表彰最优秀的海报，特别是那些由研究生和博士后提交的海报。在发言者和讨论领导人中，这次会议有很好的妇女代表。支持申请将向所有感兴趣的个人开放，但如果本次会议成为超额认购，我们将在选择与会者和特别考虑将给予学生和博士后谁是女性，以及代表性不足的少数民族或残疾人的优先事项。
