U.S.-European Workshop: Modelling in Crystal Growth, Durbuy, Belgium, October 1996

该奖项支持12名来自工业和工业的美国人，包括4名高级研究生和/或博士后研究人员，前往美国拟于1996年10月在比利时Durbuy举办的关于晶体生长模型的欧洲讲习班。 共同组织者是明尼苏达大学的Jeffrey J. Derby和比利时鲁汶天主教大学的Francois Dupret。 其他参与者包括来自欧洲和日本的大学和工业科学家。 讲习班的目的是确定共同的优先事项，交流新的想法，并促进与会者今后的合作。 他们的重点是数学建模的发展和应用到晶体生长。 晶体材料的增长范围从单晶蛋白质药物的一次性创造到工业用电子级硅的年产量。 通过数学建模，可以成功地生长出各种具有严格质量的晶体，用于广泛的应用。 这个研讨会将促进对各种晶体生长的数学建模的理解。

This award supports the travel of 12 Americans from academe and industry, including four advanced graduate students and/or postdoctoral researchers, to a U.S.-European workshop on crystal growth modeling to be held in Durbuy, Belgium, October 1996. The co-organizers are Jeffrey J. Derby of the University of Minnesota and Francois Dupret of Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium. Other participants include university- and industry-based scientists from Europe as well as Japan. The objectives of the workshop are to identify common priorities, exchange new ideas and promote future collaborative work among the participants. Their focus is the development and application of mathematical modeling to crystal growth. The growth of crystalline materials ranges from the one-time creation of single-crystal protein pharmaceuticals to the annual production of metric tons of electronic-grade silicon for industrial use. Successful growth of a variety of crystals of exacting quality for broad applications may be addressed through mathematical modeling. This workshop will advance understanding of the use of mathematical modeling for the growth of a variety of crystals.
