US-Egypt Workshop: Advanced Material Characterization and Metal Manufacturing Techniques, Cairo, Egypt, December 2001

项目描述：该项目支持将于2001年12月在埃及开罗举行的美国-埃及先进材料表征和金属制造技术研讨会。组织者是佛罗里达州盖恩斯维尔佛罗里达大学材料科学与工程系的Hassan El-Shall博士和埃及开罗赫尔万中央冶金研究与发展研究所（CMRDI）所长Adel A. nofall博士。研讨会的目的是交流美国和埃及双方在材料特性和制造方面的进展信息，并讨论通过合作研究项目可能满足的研发需求。主题包括：细颗粒制备和表面涂层，粉末冶金，真空熔化和涂层，高压压铸，化学粘合砂的外壳成型，高温合金的热处理，激光在表面处理中的应用，切割和焊接，以及材料表征。将讨论可能的合作途径。范围：该项目使美国和埃及科学家能够参加一个研讨会，讨论一个对两国都很重要的领域，并确定双方可以互补的潜在合作研究。El-Shall博士是美国国家科学基金会资助的佛罗里达大学粒子科学与技术工程研究中心的副主任。他曾参加过CMRDI的研讨会和合作研究项目。诺法尔博士是埃及材料科学与工程主要研究中心的负责人。他的研究所有充分的条件来组织讲习班，并确保该国各种学术和工业研究组织的参加。美国的参与者中有几位年轻的科学家。该项目在支持互利的联合研讨会方面符合INT的目标。该项目得到了美国-埃及联合基金项目的支持，该项目向两国的科学家和工程师提供资助，以开展联合科学活动。

0115417 ElshallDescription: This project supports a US-Egypt Workshop on Advanced Materials Characterization and Metal Manufacturing Techniques to be held in Cairo, Egypt, December 2001. The organizers are Dr. Hassan El-Shall, Department of Materials Science and Engineering, the University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida and Dr. Adel A. Nofal, President, Central Metallurgical Research and Development Institute (CMRDI), Helwan, Cairo, Egypt. The purpose of the workshop is to exchange information between the US and Egyptian sides on advances in materials characterization and manufacturing, and to discuss R&D needs that may be met through cooperative research projects. Topics to be included are: fine particles preparation and surface coating, powder metallurgy, vacuum melting and coating, high pressure die casting, shell molding of chemically bonded sand, heat treatment of super-alloys, laser use in surface treatment, cutting and welding, and material characterization. Possible avenues for collaboration will be discussed.Scope: This project enables US and Egyptian scientists to participate in a workshop to discuss an area of importance to both countries and to identify potential collaborative research where the two sides can complement each others' capabilities. Dr. El-Shall is Associate Director for Research in the NSF-funded Engineering Research Center for Particle Science and Technology at the University of Florida. He has participated in past seminars and in cooperative research projects with scientists at the CMRDI. Dr. Nofal is the head of the main research center in materials science and engineering in Egypt. His institute is well equipped to organize the workshop and to secure participation from various academic and industrial research organizations in that country. Among the US participants are several junior scientists. The project meets INT objectives in supporting mutually beneficial joint workshops. This project is being supported under the US-Egypt Joint Fund Program, which provides grants to scientists and engineers in both countries to carry out joint scientific activities.
