Student Support: The 6th CIRP Conference on High Performance Cutting (HPC2014); University of California, Berkeley; June 23-25, 2014

这笔赠款提供支持，以抵消40名学生参加第六届CIRP高性能切割会议的费用，该会议将于2014年6月23日至25日在加州大学伯克利分校举行。该会议为制造业研究人员和公司提供了一个国际论坛，以审查和讨论先进制造技术的发展。会议将涵盖的主题包括：增材制造，可持续制造和数据驱动制造（例如，大数据（Big Data）。被选中的学生将参加技术演示，并与同行和高级制造研究人员互动和网络。这些学生将根据以下标准进行选择：为会议选择的论文的演讲者;提交的研究声明的质量;在工程和科学传统上代表性不足的群体的成员资格;以及会议接受的论文的共同作者。会议的议事录将通过Elsevier Procedia CIRP在线免费提供。此外，选定的学生将能够提出，讨论，交流和发展他们在先进制造领域的研究思路。他们还将能够与当地行业互动，并更多地了解先进制造技术的最新趋势。这些经验可以帮助发展学生的技术和沟通技能，并提供与社区其他同行和研究人员建立强有力的合作关系的机会。这可以帮助培养新的想法，并使参加学生利用他们的才能和技能，推动美国的持续努力，加强美国制造业的竞争力。

This grant provides support to offset the costs for 40 students to attend the 6th CIRP Conference on High Performance Cutting, which will be hosted at the University of California, Berkeley from June 23-25, 2014. This conference provides an international forum for manufacturing researchers and companies to review and discuss developments in advanced manufacturing technology. Topics that will be covered by the conference include: additive manufacturing, sustainable manufacturing, and data-driven manufacturing (e.g., interoperability and big data). Selected students will attend technical presentations and interact and network with peers and senior manufacturing researchers. These students will be selected based on the following criteria: presenters of papers selected for the conference; quality of submitted research statement; membership in traditionally underrepresented groups in engineering and the sciences; and co-authors of papers accepted for the conference.The proceedings of the conference will be made freely available online through Elsevier Procedia CIRP. Furthermore, selected students will be able to present, discuss, exchange, and develop their research ideas in the area of advanced manufacturing. They will also be able to interact with local industries and learn more about recent trends in advanced manufacturing technology. These experiences can help develop the students' technical and communication skills as well as provide opportunities for strong collaborative ties with other peers and researchers in the community. This can help foster new ideas and enable attending students to use their talents and skills to drive continued American efforts that strengthen the competitiveness of manufacturing in the United States.
