This award supports the Gordon Research Seminar and at the Gordon Research Conference on Tribology held on June 24-29, 2018 at Bates College, Lewiston, ME, USA. Tribology - the study of friction, lubrication, and wear - is essential to technological applications with moving parts, from large machineries and cars, to medical implants, to micro-mechanical mirrors in projectors. Regular meetings of the key researchers in this field are necessary for the exchange of ideas, information, and state-of-the-art technologies, in order to enable and accelerate advances and breakthroughs the field. The science of tribology impacts the national prosperity through improvements in manufacturing and energy reduction. The Gordon Conference is a key mechanism for linking the basic sciences with an engineering discipline of significant importance to the US and world economies. This GRC is held biannually and a unique forum for the open exchange of new and previously unpublished scientific ideas. In addition to poster presentations, the conference includes presentations and extended discussion and interactions among participants. The theme of the 2018 Gordon Research Conference is interdisciplinarity bringing together scientists and engineers from a variety of disciplines to discuss and debate the forefront research questions, and to identify areas for significant breakthroughs in tribology that are likely to be found at the interfaces between the classical fields. An important aspect of the 2018 conference is the Gordon Research Seminar. The Gordon Research Seminar is held the weekend before the Gordon Research Conference and is a forum for students and early-career researchers to exchange ideas in an informal but dynamic setting. National Science Foundation support from the Materials Engineering and Processing Program enables the participation of 15 junior participants, including graduate students and postdoctoral scholars, at the Gordon Research Seminar, and 12 invited early-career speakers and discussion leaders at the Gordon Research Conference. The Gordon conference is a premier workshop venue which allows weeklong discussion with not resulting conference summary published. This allows for the free flow of ideas and information within an open environment. The topics range from the atomic origins of friction and lubrication to the tribology of the earth. The workshop will focus on interdisciplinary and unpublished work with research presentations to inform the community in a small group format with ~100 attendees to foster discussion. NSF participant support is directed to the individuals from underrepresented groups, including gender and ethnic diversity; first-time GRC/GRS attendees and people from diverse fields to broaden the attendance base; and individuals with evidence of high-quality, early-career research accomplishments.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项支持戈登研究研讨会和2018年6月24日至29日在美国刘易斯顿的贝茨学院举行的戈登研究会议上。摩擦学 - 摩擦，润滑和磨损的研究对于从大型机械和汽车到医疗植入物到投影仪中的微型机械镜的运动部件的技术应用至关重要。对于思想，信息和最先进的技术的交换，必须定期举行该领域的主要研究人员会议，以实现和加速和突破这一领域。摩擦学科学通过改善制造和减少能源的改善影响了国家繁荣。戈登会议是将基本科学与对美国和世界经济重要性重要性的工程学科联系起来的关键机制。该GRC每两年一次举行，这是一个独特的论坛，用于开放新的和以前未发表的科学思想。除海报演示外，会议还包括演讲，参与者之间的扩展讨论和互动。 2018年戈登研究会议的主题是跨学科的主题，将各种学科的科学家和工程师汇集在一起​​，讨论和辩论前沿研究问题，并确定在摩擦学领域的重大突破领域，这些领域很可能在古典领域之间的接口中找到。 2018年会议的一个重要方面是戈登研究研讨会。戈登研究研讨会于戈登研究会议前的周末举行，是一个学生和早期研究人员的论坛，以非正式但动态的环境交换思想。材料工程和加工计划的国家科学基金会的支持使15名初级参与者，包括研究生和博士后学者，在戈登研究研讨会上，以及12名邀请的早期职业发言人和讨论领袖在戈登研究会议上。戈登会议是一个主要的研讨会场地，允许进行为期一周的讨论，并未发布会议摘要。这允许在开放环境中自由流动思想和信息。主题范围从摩擦和润滑的原子起源到地球的摩擦学。研讨会将专注于跨学科和未发表的工作，并通过研究演示文稿以少量小组形式告知社区，以约100名与会者进行讨论。 NSF参与者的支持针对来自代表性不足的群体（包括性别和种族多样性）的个人；首次GRC/GRS的参与者和来自不同领域的人以扩大出勤基地；和具有高质量，早期研究成就的证据的人。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的审查标准来评估值得支持的。
