This award supports travel by the Principal Investigator to Colombia to initiate a collaboration with Dr. Silvia Caro of the Universidad de Los Andes in Bogota, Colombia, and Ms. Sara Alzate of Road Sciences Corporation in Los Angeles, CA. The topic of the collaboration is to use stochastically generated material properties in numerical simulations of advanced lab tests of asphalt concrete. The numerical simulations will address the variability of material properties. The use of stochastic modeling will allow consideration of the actual characteristics of the microstructure and its impact on the response of the material. The meeting will also develop a framework for students to engage in international research and exchanges. In addition to the academic studies, benefits to industry are anticipated.

该奖项支持首席研究员前往哥伦比亚，与哥伦比亚波哥大洛斯安第斯大学的Silvia Caro博士和加州洛杉矶道路科学公司的Sara Alzate女士开展合作。合作的主题是在高级沥青混凝土实验室测试的数值模拟中使用随机生成的材料特性。数值模拟将解决材料性能的可变性。随机模型的使用将允许考虑微观结构的实际特性及其对材料响应的影响。会议还将为学生开展国际研究和交流制定框架。除了学术研究外，预计对工业也有好处。
