U.S.-Venezuela Planning Visit to Plan Research on Interfacial Phenomena at the Universidad de Los Andes

0085068纽曼美洲项目奖金将资助阿拉巴马州奥本大学的Ronald D. Neuman博士短期访问委内瑞拉的旅费和相关费用，与他的合作者、委内瑞拉洛斯安第斯大学化学工程系的Orlando J. Rojas博士一起计划建立一个研究项目，研究界面现象的基础和实际方面。安第斯大学研究小组在重质原油乳剂和泡沫方面的设备和专业知识，以及主要研究人员在表面活性剂系统界面特性实验测量方面的专业知识，将有助于两所学术机构的教师、研究生和本科生的国际合作。***

0085068NewmanThis Americas Program award will fund travel and related expenses for a short-term visit to Venezuela by Dr. Ronald D. Neuman, Auburn University, Alabama, to plan, with his collaborator, Dr. Orlando J. Rojas, of the Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Los Andes, Venezuela, the establishment of a research program in the fundamental and practical aspects of interfacial phenomena. The facilities and expertise's in heavy crude oil emulsions and foams of the Universidad de los Andes group and this expertise of the Principal Investigators in experimental measurements of interfacial properties of surfactant systems to do well for international cooperation, which may involve both faculty and graduate and undergraduate students at the two academic institutions.***
