The objective of this award is to provide partial travel support for researchers from the United States working in the area of tribology to attend and give invited presentations at the Fifth Conference on Multiscale Materials Modeling Conference 2010, which will be held in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany, October 4-8, 2010. The title of the symposium in which they will present their work is "Tribology: Understanding Friction, Lubrication and Wear across the Scales." Deliverables include planned conference proceedings from the symposium that will be published in the European Physical Journal. This symposium will form a unique platform that unites modelers and experimentalists to discuss the opportunities and challenges multiscale modeling offers for all kind of tribological issues. This will benefit the field because the performance of macroscale machines is governed by a variety of nanoscale mechanical and chemical processes at moving interfaces. This makes tribology - the science of interacting surfaces in relative motion - inherently multiscale. Consequently, modeling utilizes the complete MMM toolbox including electronic structure calculations, molecular dynamics, mesoparticle methods and continuum mechanics in order to study the underlying chemical, mechanical and fluidic processes on all length scales. It is anticipated that the unique focus of the symposium on the multiscale aspects of tribology will enhance scientific understanding of the field.

该奖项的目的是为在摩擦学领域工作的美国研究人员提供部分旅行支持，以参加2010年10月4日至8日在德国弗莱堡举行的第五届多尺度材料建模会议。他们将在研讨会上展示他们的研究成果，研讨会的题目是“摩擦学：理解摩擦、润滑和磨损”。可交付成果包括将在《欧洲物理杂志》上发表的研讨会计划会议记录。本次研讨会将形成一个独特的平台，将建模者和实验家联合起来，讨论多尺度建模为各种摩擦学问题提供的机遇和挑战。这将使该领域受益，因为宏观机器的性能是由移动界面上的各种纳米级机械和化学过程控制的。这使得摩擦学——研究相对运动中相互作用表面的科学——本质上是多尺度的。因此，建模利用了完整的MMM工具箱，包括电子结构计算、分子动力学、介粒子方法和连续介质力学，以研究所有长度尺度上潜在的化学、机械和流体过程。预计研讨会对摩擦学多尺度方面的独特关注将加强对该领域的科学理解。
