Travel Funds for the 12th International Conference on Wind Engineering

为参加将于2007年7月2日至6日在澳大利亚凯恩斯举行的第12届国际风力工程会议的10名或更多的美国与会者申请资金。这次会议是1963年开始的每四年举行一次的著名系列会议之一。这些会议促进了全球风力工程及相关领域的研究人员和实践者之间的合作和知识交流。在这个重要的会议上，美国的风力工程界的代表是至关重要的。国际风力工程会议为展示个人和国家的成就提供了一个国际论坛。未来的研究方向往往是通过这些会议确定的。未被充分代表的少数民族和早期职业研究人员将包括在这项活动中。

Funding is requested for ten or more US participants to attend the 12th International Conference on Wind Engineering to be held in Cairns, Australia on July 2-6, 2007. This conference is one in a well-known series held every four years that started in 1963. These meetings promote collaboration and intellectual exchange among researchers and practitioners worldwide in wind engineering and related fields. It is critical that the wind engineering community in the US be represented at this important conference. The International Wind Engineering conferences have provided an international forum for presentation of individual and national accomplishments. Future research directions are often identified through these conferences. Underrepresented minority and early career researchers will be included in this activity.
