This grant provides funds for students and early-career researchers to attend the 2022 Gordon Research Conference on Tribology: Understanding Sliding Interfaces to Master Tribological Systems Across Length Scales; Bates College, Lewiston, Maine; 25 June to 1 July 2022. Tribology is the science of friction and wear at the sliding contacts. Research and engineering efforts in tribology address the physical and chemical mechanisms underlying friction and wear, and aim to design materials, processes, and devices such that new solutions to technological challenges become available. Advances in tribology help to reduce energy consumption by lowering friction, to prolong the lifetime and enhance the safety of mechanical systems by reducing wear, and to decrease harmful emissions in applications from vehicles to manufacturing through reduction of energy use. Tribology also impacts the life of humans and animals that move on earth. The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Tribology is a forum to exchange results of cutting-edge research amongst an interdisciplinary group of scientists and engineers who are at the forefront of addressing fundamental and applied challenges in this field. This award will promote participations of students and early-career researchers from diverse backgrounds at the GRC. This subtitle “Understanding Sliding Interfaces to Master Tribological Systems Across Length Scales” reflects the fact a comprehensive understanding of tribological phenomena requires multidisciplinary knowledge encompassing a range of classical fields in science and engineering, including chemistry, physics, mechanical engineering, and materials science over multiple length scales. Most tribologists are trained in one of these areas with emphasis on either microscale (atomic, molecular, nano) or macroscale (system-level) phenomena or methodologies and then exposed to other fields or scales of tribology as they make transitions from schools to real-world situations. Realizing the multidisciplinary and multiscale challenges in tribology is believed that the next significant breakthroughs are likely to be found at the interfaces between the classical trainings. To achieve these breakthroughs, the very diverse tribology community needs to come together to learn and discover together. The 2022 GRC will provide a venue for this discussion and learning.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.

该补助金为学生和早期职业研究人员提供资金，参加2022年戈登摩擦学研究会议：了解滑动界面，以掌握跨长度尺度的摩擦学系统;贝茨学院，刘易斯顿，缅因州; 2022年6月25日至7月1日。摩擦学是研究滑动接触处摩擦和磨损的科学。摩擦学的研究和工程工作涉及摩擦和磨损的物理和化学机制，旨在设计材料，工艺和设备，以便为技术挑战提供新的解决方案。摩擦学的进步有助于通过降低摩擦来减少能源消耗，通过减少磨损来延长机械系统的使用寿命并提高其安全性，并通过减少能源使用来减少从车辆到制造的应用中的有害排放。摩擦学也影响着在地球上活动的人类和动物的生活。摩擦学戈登研究会议（GRC）是一个论坛，旨在交流跨学科科学家和工程师群体之间的前沿研究成果，这些科学家和工程师处于解决该领域基本和应用挑战的最前沿。该奖项将促进学生和来自不同背景的早期职业研究人员在GRC的参与。本副标题“理解滑动界面以掌握跨长度尺度的摩擦学系统”反映了一个事实，即全面理解摩擦学现象需要多学科知识，包括科学和工程中的一系列经典领域，包括化学，物理，机械工程和材料科学。大多数摩擦学家都在这些领域之一接受过培训，重点是微观（原子，分子，纳米）或宏观（系统级）现象或方法，然后在从学校过渡到现实世界的过程中接触其他领域或摩擦学尺度。认识到摩擦学的多学科和多尺度的挑战，相信下一个重大突破可能会在经典培训之间的接口。为了实现这些突破，非常多样化的摩擦学社区需要走到一起，共同学习和发现。2022年GRC将为这种讨论和学习提供场所。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。
