Travel to Attend: XVIIth International Congression Theoretical and Applied Mechanics March 1, 1988 - Feb 28, 1989

该奖项为美国科学家参加将于1988年8月在法国格勒诺布尔举行的第17届国际理论和应用力学大会提供部分支持。理论和应用力学是一个成熟的领域，其中包括湍流、高超声速和跨音速流动、磁流体力学、动力塑性、生物力学、地球物理、断裂力学和复合材料。美国已经被分配了这些主题中受邀和投稿的论文的很大一部分。作为国家研究委员会的一部分，美国国家理论和应用力学委员会将利用这一NSF奖以及来自陆军研究办公室、海军研究办公室和国家航空航天局的资金，为美国参与者管理一项旅行补助计划。

This award provides partial support for participation by US scientists in the 17th International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics to be held in Grenoble, France in August 1988. Theoretical and applied mechanics is a well-established field which includes among others, turbulence, hypersonic and transonic flow, magneto-hydrodynamics, dynamic plasticity, biomechanics, geophysics, fracture mechanics and composites. US has been allotted a significant portion of the invited and contributed papers in these topics. The US National Committee on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, which is part of the National Research Council, will administer a travel grant program for US participants using this NSF award as well as funds from the Army Research Office, Office of Naval Research and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
