This award supports a workshop to provide a networking platform bringing additive manufacturing researchers and industrial partners together. Discussions among workshop participants will accelerate technology advancement leading to further market expansion in a large variety of business ventures. The workshop will help bridge the gap between fundamental research and industrial applications through strengthening connections between different stakeholders. This will serve to further advance additive manufacturing techniques through identifying technical and practical challenges that require more in-depth fundamental investigations. The outcomes of the workshop will pave the path forward for a streamlined transition from fundamental research to industrial applications. This workshop will benefit many industrial sectors, including aerospace, automotive, biomedical, defense, energy, environmental, manufacturing, materials, etc.The University of Pittsburgh will host the workshop on August 17-18, 2017 in collaboration with Texas A&M University, to foster the interaction between NSF-funded researchers and industrial professionals associated with America Makes, the National Additive Manufacturing Innovation Institute. The workshop will consist of three sessions, in which about 20 NSF-funded researchers will highlight their additive manufacturing research progress through presentations and posters, along with ample opportunity for networking. The workshop will be organized in coordination with America Makes for broad industrial participation. It will ultimately lead to the identification of synergistic activities between academic and industrial stakeholders and facilitate productive academic-industrial partnerships.

该奖项支持一个研讨会，提供一个网络平台，将增材制造研究人员和工业合作伙伴聚集在一起。研讨会参与者之间的讨论将加速技术进步，从而进一步扩大各种商业企业的市场。研讨会将通过加强不同利益攸关方之间的联系，帮助弥合基础研究和工业应用之间的差距。这将有助于通过确定需要更深入基础研究的技术和实践挑战来进一步推进增材制造技术。研讨会的成果将为从基础研究到工业应用的简化过渡铺平道路。该研讨会将使许多工业部门受益，包括航空航天，汽车，生物医学，国防，能源，环境，制造业，材料等。匹兹堡大学将于2017年8月17日至18日与德克萨斯A M大学合作举办研讨会&，以促进NSF资助的研究人员与美国制造相关的工业专业人员之间的互动，国家增材制造创新研究所研讨会将包括三个会议，其中约20名NSF资助的研究人员将通过演讲和海报突出他们的增材制造研究进展，沿着大量的网络机会。该讲习班将与美国制造商协调组织，以促进广泛的工业参与。它将最终导致确定学术界和工业界利益攸关方之间的协同活动，并促进富有成效的学术界-工业界伙伴关系。
