Travel Grants for the American Physical Society Division of Fluid Dynamics Annual Meeting 2011, Baltimore, MD, November 20-22, 2011

1141747 FreundThe funding from NSF will provide partial support of participant travel to the American Physical Society，Division of Fluid Dynamics，64th Annual DFD Meeting 2011 in巴尔的摩，MD，November 20-22，2011.这是世界上最大的流体力学家国际年会，预计将有2000名与会者。该会议已成功举办了60多年。本次会议的主要智力价值在于科学思想的交流，前沿研究的介绍，以及接触流体动力学几乎每个子学科的丰富多样的主题。更广泛的影响将是增加美国学生和年轻科学家的参与，否则他们将无法负担参加会议和支付相关费用。优先授予NSF赞助的资金：（i）那些在会议上演讲的人，（ii）那些过去没有收到这样的奖项的人，以及（iii）来自给定研究顾问的申请人不超过一个。由于奖学金是为了补充与会者的旅费，而不是完全支付旅费，委员会考虑到了申请表上的旅费预算。特别努力实现代表性不足的群体，包括妇女和少数群体成员对工程的多样化参与。

1141747FreundThe funding from NSF will provide partial support of participant travel to the American Physical Society, Division of Fluid Dynamics, 64th Annual DFD Meeting 2011 in Baltimore, MD, November 20-22, 2011. This is the largest international annual meeting of fluid dynamicists in the world, with 2000 anticipated attendees. The meeting has been successfully run for over sixty years.The chief intellectual merit of this conference lies in the exchange of scientific ideas, presentations of cutting edge research, and exposure to a richly diverse array of topics in virtually every sub-discipline of fluid dynamics. The broader impact will be to increase participation of students and young scientists in the US who would not otherwise be able to afford to travel to the meeting and pay associated costs. Preference for awarding the NSF sponsored funds is given: (i) to those presenting talks at the meeting, (ii) to those who have not received such an award in the past, and (iii) to no more than one applicant from a given research advisor. Since the awards are meant to supplement participant travel funds, not to cover these entirely, the committee takes into account the travel budget entered on the application. Special effort is made to achieve diverse participation from underrepresented groups in engineering, including women and members of minority groups.
