This workshop highlights recent developments and future directions in the field of nonlinear dynamics, with an emphasis on fluid processes. This is an interdisciplinary field that not only addresses significant issues of fundamental scientific importance, but also involves numerous applications to many technical problems facing society today. The workshop will bring together people with wide interests in nonlinear dynamics in a small, intimate setting that is conducive to one-on-one and small-group interactions. A major emphasis is to provide young investigators (undergraduates, graduate students and post-doctoral fellows) with an opportunity to learn about the range of studies being done by leading experts in the field. Another reason for this workshop is to highlight the value of research at undergraduate institutions and research experiences for undergraduates. In fact, a few of the invited speakers are currently at predominately-undergraduate institutions, and several speakers at research institutions also work frequently with undergraduates. The NSF grant will provide stipends to help cover the expenses for students and postdocs who are attending the workshop.

本次研讨会重点介绍了非线性动力学领域的最新发展和未来方向，重点是流体过程。这是一个跨学科的领域，不仅涉及重要的基础科学问题，而且涉及当今社会面临的许多技术问题的大量应用。研讨会将把对非线性动力学有广泛兴趣的人聚集在一个小而亲密的环境中，有利于一对一和小组互动。一个主要的重点是为年轻的研究者（本科生，研究生和博士后研究员）提供一个机会，了解该领域领先专家正在进行的一系列研究。举办这个研讨会的另一个原因是为了强调本科院校研究和本科生研究经历的价值。事实上，一些受邀演讲者目前在以本科生为主的机构，一些研究机构的演讲者也经常与本科生打交道。美国国家科学基金会将为参加研讨会的学生和博士后提供津贴，以帮助支付费用。
