2002 Tribology Gordon Conference, August 4-9, 2002, Bristol, Rhode Island

为2002年两年一度的戈登胸腺学研究会议提供了PagePartial支持。会议将于8月4日至9日在罗德岛布里斯托尔的罗杰·威廉姆斯大学举行。课程主题集中在“阻力最小的路径”这一普通物理主题上。主题包括摩擦、润滑和磨损机制，以及表面科学和高级建模的作用。戈登会议的形式将确保尖端研究在非正式的气氛中得到广泛讨论。NSF的支持将主要用于支持研究生和初级研究人员的出席。会议的成果将是基础科学方面的进展和这一重要领域的工业应用的后续影响，因为成果将转移到工业领域。

0212146PagePartial support is provided for the 2002 biannual Gordon Research Conference on Ttibology. The conference will be held August 4-9 at Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Islans. Session topics are focused on a general physics theme of "paths of least resistance". Topics include friction, lubrication and wear mechanisms, as well as the role of surface science and advanced modelling. The Gordon Conference format will assure that cutting edge research is discussed extensively in an informal atmosphere. NSF support will be used primarily to support the attendance of graduate students and junior researchers. The outcomes of the conference will be advances in basic science and follow-on impact on industrial applications in this important area as results transfer to industry.
