This IRES project is co-funded by Office of International Science and Engineering (OISE) and Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR).Part 1:This program will train a diverse group of U.S. students in interdisciplinary and global research settings at the Delft University of Technology (TU-Delft) in the Netherlands to conduct collaborative experimental and computational research on self-healing materials. Participating students will gain fundamental knowledge and international experience on new materials’ developments as well as appreciation of cultural and social aspects of conducting research abroad. While one objective is to advance the field of materials from which the entire society will benefit, an ultimate goal of this project is to enhance diversity and provide students with unique hands-on educational opportunities through international experience, thus enhancing future US global competitiveness. Eighteen U.S. students during a three year period will participate in the program who will gain research experience while facing challenges and opportunities of international research collaborations. Part 2: The proposed research projects aim at the development of self-healable materials with enhanced sustainability and durability in high-tech and commodity applications. The following cutting edge projects that students will conduct are: self-Healing ceramic composites and metallo-ceramics materials, the Influence of polymer molecular structure on self-healing, dynamics of self-healing biopolymer composites, self-healing construction concrete materials, self-healing of motorways, and modelling of self-healing of thermal barrier coatings. The proposed projects will lead to new advances that will guide developments of future materials in sustainable technologies. The overall goal of the program is to provide students with a global awareness how new generations of materials may impact environment and societal needs.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IRES项目由国际科学与工程办公室（OISE）和刺激竞争性研究的既定计划（EPSCoR）共同资助。第一部分：该计划将在荷兰德尔夫特理工大学（TU-德尔夫特）的跨学科和全球研究环境中培养一批多样化的美国学生，以进行自修复材料的合作实验和计算研究。参与的学生将获得新材料发展的基础知识和国际经验，以及在国外进行研究的文化和社会方面的欣赏。虽然一个目标是推进整个社会将从中受益的材料领域，但该项目的最终目标是通过国际经验增强多样性并为学生提供独特的实践教育机会，从而提高美国未来的全球竞争力。在三年的时间里，18名美国学生将参加该计划，他们将获得研究经验，同时面临国际研究合作的挑战和机遇。 第二部分：拟议的研究项目旨在开发在高科技和商品应用中具有增强可持续性和耐用性的自修复材料。学生将进行的以下前沿项目是：自愈合陶瓷复合材料和金属陶瓷材料，聚合物分子结构对自愈合的影响，自愈合生物聚合物复合材料的动力学，自愈合建筑混凝土材料，高速公路的自愈合，以及热障涂层自愈合的建模。拟议的项目将带来新的进展，指导可持续技术中未来材料的开发。该计划的总体目标是让学生了解新一代材料如何影响环境和社会需求。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
