The proposal seeks funds to partially cover travel expenses of invited speakers and student participants and organizing expenses related to the conference entitled, "American Physical Society, Division of Fluid Dynamics, 67th Annual DFD Meeting 2014" in San Francisco, CA, November 23-25, 2014. 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 five 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 $20,000 and the American Institute for Physics plans to contribute $10,000 to the overall budget for travel awards. This total amount expected is $55,000 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. Even though the conference is attended by worldwide attendees, the NSF support will fund individuals from the US.

该提案寻求资金，以部分支付受邀演讲者和学生参与者的差旅费，以及与会议相关的组织费用，题为“美国物理学会，流体动力学分部，第67届年度DFD会议2014年”在弗朗西斯科，加利福尼亚州，2014年11月23日至25日。这是世界上最大的流体力学家国际年会，预计将有2,500人参加。该会议已经成功地运行了65年。旅行资助计划的优先事项是部分资助学生，年轻科学家，以及来自代表性不足群体的科学家。APS DFD执行委员会计划捐款20，000美元，美国物理研究所计划捐款10，000美元，用于旅行奖励的总预算。预计这一总额为55 000美元，用于为大约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学生和青年科学家的参与，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）在会议上发表演讲的人;（ii）学生;（iii）过去没有获得这种奖项的人;以及（iv）来自特定研究顾问的申请人不超过一人。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。尽管世界各地的与会者都参加了这次会议，但NSF的支持将资助来自美国的个人。
