Non-technical Abstract:This award to CUNY City College supports research, done under the Partnerships for Research and Education in Materials (PREM) program, on vapor-liquid and gas-liquid systems, as well as granular and colloidal materials. The partnership with the University of Chicago leverages strengths of each institution, coupling theoretical and experimental tools in a useful way. In addition to producing research, this partnership has been successful at moving minority students into the STEM work force. Funds in this award will be used to continue graduate student stipends, and to continue undergraduate and REU student support.Technical Abstract:Dynamics associated with heterogeneous materials, which are controlled by multiple forces, is poorly understood. The difficulty is that interactions involve a range of length scales, from single molecules in condensation processes to colloidal patterns in granular materials. This lack of understanding hinders the development of many applications, such as inkjet printers and coating systems. The work funded here couples experimental, theoretical and simulation tools to help understand the controlling forces at a fundamental level.

非技术摘要：该奖项授予纽约州立大学城市学院，支持在材料研究和教育伙伴关系(PREM)计划下完成的关于气-液和气-液系统以及颗粒和胶体材料的研究。与芝加哥大学的合作利用了两个机构的优势，以一种有用的方式将理论和实验工具结合在一起。除了进行研究外，这种伙伴关系还成功地将少数族裔学生带入STEM劳动力大军。该奖项的资金将用于继续发放研究生津贴，以及继续为本科生和REU学生提供支持。技术摘要：与受多种力量控制的非均质材料有关的动力学问题，人们知之甚少。困难在于相互作用涉及一系列的长度尺度，从凝聚过程中的单分子到颗粒材料中的胶体图案。这种认识的缺乏阻碍了许多应用的发展，例如喷墨打印机和涂层系统。这里资助的工作结合了实验、理论和模拟工具，以帮助从根本上理解控制力。
