The ASME Applied Mechanics and Materials (McMat) meeting is a quadrennial conference jointly established by the divisions of Applied Mechanics and of Materials of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). This meeting covers all aspect of mechanics and materials, from experiment, computation to theory. It provides a unique platform for researchers from industry, academia and national labs to come together to present, share and identify the most important developments, trends and innovations in the field. The upcoming McMat 2015 conference, to be held in Seattle, Washington, June 29-July 2, 2015, places special emphasis on advancing the knowledge in the emerging areas of energy, health, soft electronics, advanced manufacturing, and mechanics and materials education. This award will provide partial travel support for beginning researchers including graduate students, postdocs as well as community college faculty members to attend the conference. Special effort will be made to identify and support women and under-represented minority members as they are currently under represented in the mechanics and materials field.The McMat 2015 is one of the most well attended conference in the mechanics and materials field expecting over 400 participants from over 30 countries. This travel award will foster a greater and more diverse conference participation of US young scholars. It provides a unique opportunity to research active graduate students and postdoc researchers, and community college instructors in mechanics education, to learn about the most recent and important developments and innovations, and to interact with the researchers who are actually working on the forefront of these areas. In addition, the award will promote the participation and recognition of women and underrepresented minorities in the mechanics and materials field.

ASME应用力学与材料会议（英语：ASME Applied Mechanics and Materials）是由美国机械工程师学会（ASME）应用力学和材料部门联合举办的四年一度的会议。这次会议涵盖了力学和材料的所有方面，从实验，计算到理论。 它为来自工业界、学术界和国家实验室的研究人员提供了一个独特的平台，让他们聚集在一起，展示、分享和识别该领域最重要的发展、趋势和创新。 即将到来的McMat 2015会议将于2015年6月29日至7月2日在华盛顿的西雅图举行，特别强调推进能源，健康，软电子，先进制造，机械和材料教育等新兴领域的知识。该奖项将为初级研究人员（包括研究生、博士后以及社区大学教职员工）参加会议提供部分差旅支持。我们将特别努力识别和支持女性和代表性不足的少数民族成员，因为他们目前在力学和材料领域的代表性不足。McMat 2015是力学和材料领域最受欢迎的会议之一，预计将有来自30多个国家的400多名与会者参加。这个旅行奖将促进美国年轻学者更广泛、更多样化地参与会议。它提供了一个独特的机会，研究活跃的研究生和博士后研究人员，以及社区大学教师在力学教育，了解最新的和重要的发展和创新，并与谁是实际上在这些领域的前沿工作的研究人员进行互动。 此外，该奖项将促进妇女和代表性不足的少数民族在机械和材料领域的参与和认可。
