Summer School on Fracture; Institut d'Etudes Scientifuques de Cargese, Cargese, France; June 7-19, 2010

该项目将支持将于2010年6月7日至19日在法国Cargese举办的骨折问题暑期学校。暑期学校的目标是：（一）汇集一个多学科的国际知名研究人员-物理学家，统计物理学家，材料科学家和工程师-讨论当前的研究和未来的趋势，并相互交流;（ii）为研究生及博士后开办暑期学校，以达致上述目标;博士研究员，以便年轻的研究人员可以进入该领域。暑期学校的设置特别有用，因为讲座将以课堂形式呈现，并有详细的描述。这种形式还使不同研究人员群体之间能够进行良好的互动和潜在的合作。暑期学校将为来自世界各地的约30名研究生和博士后研究员提供一个教育机会，他们将接触到骨折领域的前沿课题，以及世界专家当前和未来的研究趋势。多学科的方法也培养汇集物理学家，材料科学家和工程师。主要的更广泛的影响是骨折领域下一代研究人员的教育和培训。暑期学校也有一个全球性的影响力，在汇集来自不同国家的讲师和学生的意义。

This project will support the Summer School on Fracture to be held in Cargese, France, June 7-19, 2010. The objectives of the Summer School are: (i) to bring together a multidisciplinary group of internationally renowned researchers - physicists, statistical physicists, materials scientists, and engineers - to discuss current research and future trends, and to interact with each other; (ii) to accomplish this in the setting of a Summer School for graduate students and post-doctoral fellows so that young researchers can be brought into the field. The setting of the Summer School is particularly useful because the lectures are to be presented in a classroom format, with detailed descriptions. This format also enables good interactions and potential collaborations between the different groups of researchers. Two sessions of panel discussions are planned in order to summarize the presentations and to evaluate potential areas of research.The Summer School will provide an educational opportunity for about 30 graduate students and post-doctoral fellows from around the world who will be exposed to advanced topics in fracture, and current and future research trends from world experts. A multi-disciplinary approach is also cultivated by bringing together physicists, materials scientists and engineers. The predominant broader impact is the education and training of the next generation of researchers in the area of fracture. The Summer School also has a global reach, in the sense of bringing together both lecturers and students from different countries.
