Abstract Proposal: OISE-1132899 PI/Institution: Triantafyllou, Michael S., Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyThe proposed U.S.-Brazil Ocean Engineering workshop (in Rio de Janeiro, August 16-18, 2011) will bring together US and Brazil experts to catalyze new collaborative areas between the two countries that will complement current ocean engineering effort s and strengthen the benefits for ocean related research in the US. The US delegation is led by Dr. Michael Triantafyllou (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and it has representation from the Naval Postgraduate School, the U. of Michigan, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Texas A&M University, Stevens Institute of Technology, and Florida Atlantic University. The Brazilian counterparts, led by Dr. Murilo Augusto Vaz (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro), are from the Universidade de Sao Paulo, Pontificia Universidade Catolica de Rio de Janeiro, Universidade Estatal de Campinas, Instituto de Pesquisas Tecnologicas, Centro de Pesquisas e Desenvolvimento Leopoldo Américo Miguez de Mello, and Petrobras. Brazil has made significant investments in R&D for off-shore oil and gas drilling and thus developed considerable expertise in ocean resource extraction. Brazil has also invested heavily in new facilities, research institutes, and university programs in ocean engineering making it a world leader in deep water oil and gas reservoirs exploration. Brazil's investment coincides with similar efforts at US universities increasing ocean research and related education activities thus making this workshop a very timely and productive endeavor.

摘要提案：OISE-1132899 PI/机构：Triantafyllou、Michael S.、麻省理工学院拟议的美国-巴西海洋工程研讨会（2011 年 8 月 16 日至 18 日在里约热内卢）将汇集美国和巴西专家，以促进两国之间新的合作领域，从而补充当前的海洋工程工作并增强美国海洋相关研究的效益。 美国代表团由麻省理工学院的Michael Triantafyllou博士率领，成员包括来自密歇根大学海军研究生院、伍兹霍尔海洋研究所、德克萨斯农工大学、史蒂文斯理工学院和佛罗里达大西洋大学的代表。 巴西同行由Murilo Augusto Vaz博士（里约热内卢联邦大学）领导，来自圣保罗大学、里约热内卢天主教大学、坎皮纳斯大学、Pesquisas Tecnologicas研究所、Leopoldo Américo Miguez研究中心 德梅洛和巴西国家石油公司。巴西对近海石油和天然气钻探的研发进行了大量投资，从而在海洋资源开采方面积累了丰富的专业知识。 巴西还大力投资海洋工程领域的新设施、研究机构和大学项目，使其成为深水油气藏勘探领域的世界领先者。 巴西的投资与美国大学的类似努力相一致，增加了海洋研究和相关教育活动，因此使本次研讨会成为一次非常及时且富有成效的努力。
