Intellectual Merit: 8th The International Workshop on Piezoelectric Materials and Applications(IWPMA) 2011 meeting is scheduled to be held from August 7 - 11, 2011, in Roanoke, Virginia. Thismeeting will be held in conjunction with 6th Annual Energy Harvesting Workshop, and 3rd AnnualCenter for Intelligent Material System and Structures (CIMSS) Conference. The focus of the meeting is on energy. The workshop will provide in-depth information on the application of smart materials with a focus on energy related issues. Broader Impact: The support from NSF will be mostly used for (i) enhancing student participationtargeting underrepresented minority participants, women, and high school teachers and students, (ii)registration and travel support for lecturers providing tutorial and plenary speakers, and (iii) registrationfees for returning veterans to enhance their educational experience. The participation of small businesscompanies at this meeting will be supported through NSF I/UCRC: Center for Energy HarvestingMaterials and Systems (CEHMS). The meeting will serve as both a recruiting tool and as graduateleadership training. The tutorials provided at the meeting will have strong emphasis on the involvement ofhigh school African-American students in higher research and education in Blacksburg, Virginia.

智力优势：第八届压电材料及其应用国际研讨会（IWPMA）定于2011年8月7日至11日在弗吉尼亚州的罗阿诺克举行。本次会议将与第六届年度能源收集研讨会和第三届智能材料系统和结构中心（CIMSS）会议一起举行。 会议的重点是能源。该研讨会将提供有关智能材料应用的深入信息，重点是与能源相关的问题。更广泛的影响：国家科学基金会的支助将主要用于：（i）加强学生的参与，以代表性不足的少数民族参与者、妇女和高中教师和学生为对象;（ii）为提供辅导和全体演讲者的讲师提供注册和旅行支助;（iii）为返回的退伍军人提供注册费，以加强他们的教育经验。小型企业参加本次会议将得到NSF I/UCRC的支持：能源收集材料和系统中心（CEHMS）。这次会议将作为招聘工具和毕业生领导力培训。在会议上提供的教程将有强烈的重点对高中非裔美国学生在弗吉尼亚州布莱克斯堡高等研究和教育的参与。
