A Workshop on Shape Memory Alloys: Current Challenges and Future Prospect? is to be held June 20th-24th, 2010 on the campus of Koc University, Istanbul, Turkey. The workshop is organized by several faculty members including Dr. Karaman from Texas A&M University, and others from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, the University of Kentucky, and the Pennsylvania State University, together with the colleagues from Germany and Turkey. The co-organizer is Dr. M. Irsadi Aksun, Acting Dean of Engineering at Koc University in Istanbul, Turkey. The meeting will consist of approximately 50 presentations with panel discussions, covering a wide range of topics in shape memory alloys, and student/post-doc poster session and competition. The workshop is an activity of the NSF-funded International Materials Institute (IMI) at Texas A&M University, in partnership with several other universities. This ?International Institute of Multifunctional Materials for Energy Conversion? aims at developing partnership and research collaborations with Middle East and Mediterranean countries in efficient energy conversion and reliable energy transfer. Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs) are an important material class for the energy conversion and transfer and an integral part of this institute. The goal of this workshop is to bring the SMA research community together to share the recent developments in the field, evolving topics, and opportunities. More importantly, the workshop aims at creating a vivid discussion forum to analyze what the research community can/should do in the scientific fundamentals to bring about the next revolution in SMAs for their accelerated insertion into existing and new fields of applications from actuation to damping and from energy harvesting to transmission in energy, infrastructure, biomedical, automotive, aerospace, and consumer products markets. Topics covered at the meeting will have significant impact on the future of SMAs and are of importance to the US research competitiveness. The meeting provides a unique forum for invited scientists to communicate their ideas on problems of common interest in an international and multidisciplinary environment. Intellectual merit: This SMA workshop will highlight the new material design, experimental, computational, and theoretical advances in processing, characterization, multiscale modeling, and device applications of these materials, as well as improved understanding of the underlying processes and mechanisms. In addition, the interdisciplinary research on the boundaries of science and engineering will be highlighted. Broader impacts: The workshop provides a unique opportunity for close interactions and communication between the students and the international experimental and theoretical researchers as well as people at the applications front. Moreover, graduate students including the ones from underrepresented groups will find a forum to present their research and interact with their peers and with recognized experts in the shape memory research community. The workshop will be held on the campus of Koc University, which is at the center of the geographical region of interest for the NSF-funded IMI. This will provide an opportunity for scientists and students from the region to easily attend the workshop, better interact with the U.S. scientists and students, and develop new partnership and collaborations with the US researchers and universities. To maintain the US leadership in active materials, the workshop is timely and relevant to the NSF mission.

形状记忆合金研讨会：当前的挑战和未来的前景？将于2010年6月20日至24日在土耳其伊斯坦布尔科克大学校园举行。该研讨会由几位教师组织，包括来自德克萨斯A M大学的卡拉曼博士，以及来自伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳分校尚潘、肯塔基州大学和宾夕法尼亚州立大学州立大学的其他人，以及来自德国和土耳其的同事。主办方是M博士。Irsadi Aksun，土耳其伊斯坦布尔Koc大学工程学院代理院长。会议将包括大约50个专题报告和小组讨论，涵盖形状记忆合金的广泛主题，以及学生/博士后海报会议和竞赛。该研讨会是NSF资助的德克萨斯A M大学国际材料研究所（IMI）与其他几所大学合作的一项活动。这个吗国际能源转换多功能材料研究所旨在与中东和地中海国家在有效的能源转换和可靠的能源转移方面建立伙伴关系和研究合作。形状记忆合金（SMA）是能量转换和传递的重要材料类别，也是该研究所不可或缺的一部分。本次研讨会的目标是将SMA研究界聚集在一起，分享该领域的最新发展，不断发展的主题和机会。更重要的是，研讨会旨在创建一个生动的讨论论坛，分析研究界在科学基础方面可以/应该做些什么，以实现SMA的下一次革命，加速插入现有和新的应用领域，从驱动到阻尼，从能量收集到能源，基础设施，生物医学，汽车，航空航天和消费品市场的传输。会议所涉及的议题将对SMA的未来产生重大影响，对美国的研究竞争力至关重要。会议为应邀与会的科学家提供了一个独特的论坛，使他们能够在国际和多学科环境中就共同关心的问题交流意见。智力优点：该SMA研讨会将重点介绍新材料设计，实验，计算和理论方面的进展，这些材料的加工，表征，多尺度建模和设备应用，以及对底层过程和机制的更好理解。此外，将突出科学与工程边界的跨学科研究。更广泛的影响：该研讨会为学生与国际实验和理论研究人员以及应用前沿人员之间的密切互动和交流提供了一个独特的机会。此外，研究生，包括那些来自代表性不足的群体将找到一个论坛，介绍他们的研究，并与他们的同龄人和形状记忆研究界公认的专家互动。 研讨会将在Koc大学的校园举行，该大学是NSF资助的IMI感兴趣的地理区域的中心。这将为该地区的科学家和学生提供一个轻松参加研讨会的机会，更好地与美国科学家和学生互动，并与美国研究人员和大学建立新的伙伴关系和合作关系。为了保持美国在活性材料方面的领导地位，研讨会是及时的，与NSF的使命相关。
