Advanced Study Institute on Finite-Element Analysis for Engineering Design, Madras, India, August 1988, Award in Indian and U.S. Currencies

说明：为10名美国科学家提供支持，让他们参加在印度马德拉斯的印度理工学院（IIT）举行的为期两周的工程设计有限元分析高级研修班。会议的印度组织者是马德拉斯印度理工学院结构工程实验室的C.S. Krishnamoorthy博士。其他与会者预计来自欧洲和亚洲国家。会议的目标包括就有限元素方法及其在工程设计中的应用等几个领域的最新工作交流信息，包括三维应力分析、板壳、断裂力学、接触应力问题、传热问题、计算机软件和专家系统。将确定未来的研究需要和发展活动。这些讲座将出版在一本关于各种主题的最先进的书中。会议范围：美国在该领域的顶尖研究人员将与印度、欧洲和东亚的专家交流信息。美印之间的互动很可能导致未来在这一重要工程领域的合作，印度科学家在这一领域做出了重大贡献。

Description: Support is provided for ten U.S. scientists to participate in a two-week Advanced Study Institute on Finite-Element Analysis for Engineering Design to be held at the Indian Institute of Technology(IIT), Madras, India. The Indian organizer of the meeting is Dr. C.S. Krishnamoorthy, of the Structural Engineering Laboratory at IIT, Madras. Other participants are expected from Europe and Asian countries. The objectives include exchanges of information on recent work in several areas of finite element methods and its applications to engineering design including three-dimensional stress analysis, plates and shells, fracture mechanics, contact stress problems, heat transfer problems, computer software and expert systems. Future research needs and developmental activities are to be identified. The lectures are to be published in a state-of-the-art book on the various topics. Scope: The meeting will bring top U.S. researchers in this field with Indian, European and East Asian experts to exchange information. The U.S.-Indian interaction is likely to lead to future collaboration in this important engineering field where Indian scientists have contributed significantly.
