This grant provides partial support to 26 US-based early-career scientists for attending the 13th International Conference on Numerical Methods in Industrial Forming Processes (NUMIFORM), 2019, to be held in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, June 23-27, 2019. NUMIFORM is a renowned international conference focusing on development and applications of numerical methods for "forming" (and related) advanced manufacturing processes. It occurs approximately every 3 years in Europe, North America, and Asia, and historically has received vibrant participation from leading researchers in industry, academia and national laboratories. In recent years it has attracted up to 200-350 participants from academic institutions. Currently, material forming is one of the most prevalent and economical family of large-scale manufacturing processes available, and computational techniques play a central role in their analyses. As such, the presence of early career scientists at NUMIFORM has a lasting positive impact on the nation's economic welfare and national security. Special effort will be made to extend the support to diverse and underrepresented student communities; thereby targeting their involvement, engagement and ultimate retention in manufacturing careers. NUMIFORM 2019 is expected to include 6 plenary talks and 200 technical presentations (approximately 20 minutes each, arranged in over 14 symposia). A parallel program of exhibitors, short courses offered by software companies, and posters is also planned. The conference will consist of 3 full-days of technical presentations and 1 day of technical and/or social tours and will cover the latest trends in numerical modeling of material behavior, process modeling; metal, polymer and composite simulations; optimization and high-performance computing. All are modern technologies critical to US success and competitiveness in manufacturing. As computational techniques continue to become more pervasive for modeling, simulation and prediction of forming (and related) processes, participation in NUMIFORM will serve as a stepping-stone for next generation US-based engineers in leading the research on this important class of manufacturing technologies. This will catalyze the academic development of research personnel and equip them with knowledge of state-of-the-art methodologies. The conference will also provide ample opportunities for professional and personal contacts with renowned academic and industrial researchers, to identify new/future collaborations. Overall, the conference will strengthen the US manufacturing from the bottom-up, via education of young researchers through conference participation.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.

这笔赠款为26名美国早期职业科学家提供部分支持，帮助他们参加2019年6月23日至27日在新罕布夏州朴茨茅斯举行的2019年第13届工业成形过程数值方法国际会议(NUMIFORM)。NUMIFORM是一个著名的国际会议，专注于“形成”(和相关的)先进制造工艺的数值方法的开发和应用。它大约每三年在欧洲、北美和亚洲举行一次，历史上得到了工业界、学术界和国家实验室的顶尖研究人员的积极参与。近年来，它吸引了多达200-350名来自学术机构的参与者。目前，材料成形是目前最普遍和最经济的大规模制造工艺之一，而计算技术在其分析中发挥着核心作用。因此，早期职业科学家在NUMIFORM的存在对国家的经济福利和国家安全具有持久的积极影响。将特别努力将支持扩展到不同的和代表性不足的学生社区；从而将他们的参与、参与度和最终保留在制造业职业生涯作为目标。NUMIFORM 2019年预计将包括6次全体会议和200次技术报告(每次约20分钟，安排在14个以上的研讨会中)。参展商、软件公司提供的短期课程和海报的并行计划也在计划中。会议将包括为期3天的技术报告和1天的技术和/或社会参观，将涵盖材料行为的数值建模、工艺建模、金属、聚合物和复合材料模拟、优化和高性能计算的最新趋势。所有这些都是对美国制造业的成功和竞争力至关重要的现代技术。随着计算技术在成形(及相关)过程的建模、模拟和预测方面继续变得越来越普遍，参与NUMIFORM将成为美国下一代工程师领导这一重要制造技术研究的垫脚石。这将促进研究人员的学术发展，并使他们掌握最先进的方法知识。会议还将提供与知名学术和工业研究人员进行专业和个人接触的充分机会，以确定新的/未来的合作伙伴关系。总体而言，会议将通过会议参与对年轻研究人员的教育，自下而上地加强美国制造业。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
