项目摘要

This grant provides funding to support a workshop to assess the state-of-the-art and the future development in the field of Solid Mechanics, which has played a critical role to all engineering and technology disciplines. While serving as a corner stone of many novel applications in all engineering disciplines ranging from earthquake mitigation to energy conversion/storage systems, the field of Solid Mechanics has been revolutionized in the past two decades by the emergence of experimental and computational techniques to study the properties and behaviors of solids near atomic/molecular scales. The research areas addressed in the workshop will range from the mechanics of earthquake to thin film mechanics to mechanics of soft materials to cellular and molecular biomechanics. These subjects are of vital interests to the United States.This two-day workshop will enable young faculty members and graduate students to mingle with established researchers, learning the state-of-the-art of the field, discussing topical issues and projecting the future developments. The NSF funding will be used to support the participation of young faculty members and graduate students, especially those of women and minorities origin, as well as some of the most prominent scientists in the field. This will make available to young researchers the benefits of attending a high profile workshop in the field. A poster competition award will be established to encourage graduate students to discuss their work side by side with well-established researchers in the field.

该基金资助了一个研讨会，以评估固体力学领域的最新技术和未来发展，这对所有工程和技术学科都起着至关重要的作用。作为从地震缓解到能量转换/存储系统等所有工程学科中许多新应用的基石，固体力学领域在过去二十年中由于实验和计算技术的出现而发生了革命性的变化，这些技术用于研究接近原子/分子尺度的固体的性质和行为。研讨会的研究领域包括地震力学、薄膜力学、软质材料力学、细胞和分子生物力学等。这些问题对美国至关重要。这个为期两天的研讨会将使年轻的教师和研究生能够与知名的研究人员交流，学习该领域的最新技术，讨论热门问题并预测未来的发展。NSF的资金将用于支持年轻教师和研究生的参与，特别是那些女性和少数族裔的学生，以及该领域一些最杰出的科学家。这将使年轻的研究人员有机会参加该领域的高知名度讲习班。将设立海报竞赛奖，鼓励研究生与该领域的知名研究人员一起讨论他们的工作。
