U.S.-Brazil Collaborative Workshop on Dynamics and Control, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

该奖项资助菲尔道斯·E·乌德瓦迪亚和其他多达15名研究人员参加2000年10月9日至11日在巴西里约热内卢举行的动力学与控制研讨会。将特别强调分析力学在控制理论中的应用，不确定系统的控制，以及在非线性动力系统控制中的应用。美国的参与者将从广泛的大学和地理位置中挑选出来。研讨会将汇集来自欧洲、美国和美洲的资深和初级专家研究人员，并满足来自这些地区的科学家在这一领域加强互动的需求。它还解决了将纯粹的和应用的数学家聚集在一起的需要，以结合他们对特定问题的方法，如果要解决这些问题，需要共同努力。研讨会还有望促成来自参与地区的科学家之间的新合作。巴西政府还打算通过为部分欧洲参与者提供旅行和为所有参与者提供住宿来支持参与。

0086489UdwadiaThis award supports Firdaus E. Udwadia, and up to 15 other researchers to attend a workshop on Dynamics and Control to be held October 9-11, 2000 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Special emphasis will be given to the topics of the use of analytical mechanics in control theory, control of uncertain systems, and applications to control of nonlinear dynamical systems. U.S. participants will be chosen from a broad range of universities and geographic locales. The workshop will bring together expert senior and junior researchers from Europe, the United States, and the Americas and answers a need for increased interaction in this field between scientists from those areas. It also addresses a need to bring pure and applied mathematicians together to combine their approaches to particular problems that will require a combined effort if they are to be solved. The workshop is also expected to lead to new collaborations between scientists from the participating regions. The government of Brazil also intends to support participation by providing travel for a selection of European participants and lodging for all participants.
