Conference: Student Support to Attend 17th US National Congress on Computational Mechanics; Albuquerque, New Mexico; 23-27 July 2023

该奖项为100名在美国学习的学生和博士后研究员提供免费注册，参加将于2023年7月23日至27日在新墨西哥州阿尔伯克基举行的第17届美国计算力学全国大会（USNCCM 17）。其目标是扩大研究生，博士后研究员，来自代表性不足的社区和妇女的参与者，以及渴望更多地了解计算力学这一广泛学科的本科生的参与。在选择过程中将考虑到代表性不足的群体的成员，参与者所代表的机构的多样性，以及工程项目的多样性。美国全国计算力学大会（USNCCM）是美国计算力学协会（USACM）的两年一次的大会，自1991年开始举办。USNCCM 17与桑迪亚国家实验室的工作人员合作组织，将为来自世界各地的学术界，工业界，政府和实验室的学生，研究人员和从业人员提供一个论坛，讨论与计算工程和科学有关的各个领域的最新进展和未来方向。会议有超过85个主题minisymopsia，包括计算力学和工程科学的广泛研究领域，以及代表当前重要性的特殊主题的其他主题，包括数据驱动建模和机器学习，先进制造，气候建模和exascale计算。大会的亮点包括全体会议和半全体会议的演讲，minisymopsia与主题演讲和定期报告，以及产品展示，由各个行业和软件公司。大会将包括一个女研究人员的网络活动，一个学生海报比赛，一个职业小组，一个资助机构信息会议，以及几个短期课程，解决当前感兴趣的主题在计算工程和科学的进步。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过评估使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准的支持。

This award provides complimentary registration for 100 students and postdoctoral fellows studying in the US to attend the 17th US National Congress on Computational Mechanics (USNCCM17) which will be held 23-27 July 2023 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The objective is to broaden the participation from graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, participants from underrepresented communities and women, and undergraduate students that aspire to learn more about the broad discipline of computational mechanics. Consideration in the selection process will be given to the inclusion of members of underrepresented groups, diversity of institutions that the participants represent, and diversity of programs within engineering. The aim is to grow the pipeline of U.S. researchers interested in computational mechanics.The US National Congress on Computational Mechanics (USNCCM) has been the biennial congress of the US Association for Computational Mechanics (USACM) beginning in 1991. USNCCM17, organized in collaboration with staff from Sandia National Laboratories, will provide a forum for bringing together students, researchers, and practitioners from academia, industry, government, and laboratories from all over the world to discuss the latest advancements and future directions in various fields pertaining to computational engineering and sciences. With over 85 topical minisymposia, the conference includes research areas across the broad spectrum of computational mechanics and engineering science, as well as additional themes that represent special topics of current importance including data-driven modeling and machine learning, advanced manufacturing, climate modeling, and exascale computing. Congress highlights include plenary and semi-plenary lectures, minisymposia with keynote lectures and regular presentations, and product displays by various industries and software companies. The Congress will include a networking event for female researchers, a student poster competition, a career panel, a funding agency information session, and several short courses addressing advances in current topics of interest in computational engineering and science.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
