American Physical Society 66th Annual Division of Fluid Dynamics Meeting, Pittsburg, PA, November 24-26, 2013

1346751 ukeiley资助参加者前往2013年11月24日至26日在宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡举行的美国物理学会流体动力学分会第66届DFD年会。这是世界上最大的流体动力学家国际年会，预计将有2500人参加。会议已经成功举办了六十多年。旅行资助计划的重点是部分资助学生、年轻科学家，以及总体上来自代表性不足群体的科学家。APS DFD执行委员会计划捐款15 000美元，美国物理学会计划捐款1 000美元作为旅行奖励的总预算。预计这一总额为45 000美元，以便为大约65名与会者提供旅费补贴和登记费。这次会议的主要知识价值在于科学思想的交流，前沿研究的介绍，以及在流体动力学几乎每个分支学科中丰富多样的主题。更广泛的影响将是增加学生和年轻科学家的参与，否则他们将无法负担参加会议的旅费和支付相关费用。优先考虑：(i)在会议上发言的人，（ii）学生，（iii）过去没有获得过此类奖项的人，以及（iv）来自同一研究顾问的不超过一名申请人。由于该奖项旨在补充参与者的旅行资金，而不是完全覆盖这些资金，因此委员会将考虑申请中输入的旅行预算。特别努力使代表性不足的群体，包括妇女和少数群体成员，多样化地参与工程。

1346751 UkeileyFunding is being provided to facilitate participant travel to the American Physical Society, Division of Fluid Dynamics, 66th Annual DFD Meeting 2013 in Pittsburg, PA, November 24-26, 2013. This is the largest international annual meeting of fluid dynamicists in the world, with 2,500 anticipated attendees. The meeting has been successfully run for over sixty years. The priorities of the travel grant program are to partially fund students, young scientists, and, in general, scientists from under-represented groups. The APS DFD Executive Committee plans to contribute $15,000 and the American Institute for Physics plans to contribute $10,000 to the overall budget for travel awards. This total amount expected is $45,000 to facilitate travel subsidies and registration fee coverage for about 65 participants. 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 who would not otherwise be able to afford to travel to the meeting and pay associated costs. Preference is given: (i) to those presenting talks at the meeting, (ii) to students, (iii) to those who have not received such an award in the past, and (iv) to no more than one applicant from a given research adviser. 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.
