Rapidly advancing technologies in the fields of mechanical systems dynamics, structural mechanics, design sensitivity analysis, optimization, computer architectures, computer science, numerical analysis and computer graphics need to be integrated into an overall mechanical system simulation and design optimization program that can be used by industry. As a result of NSF Planning Grant CDR 87-00749, the University of Iowa has shown that an Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Simulation and Design Optimization of Mechanical Systems is both feasible and viable. This five-year continuing grant is funding along with industry the initiation of an Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Simulation and Design Optimization of Mechanical Systems at the University of Iowa. This Center's research program is addressing: Dynamic System Simulation, Design Optimization, Advanced Software System Integration and Graphics Communication and Control of the Design Process. Over two dozens companies have become members of the Center providing support of approximately $1M. The Co-Principal Investigators and his colleagues are nationally recognized experts in their fields and have the knowledge, resources and support necessary to operate this Center. Drs. dePennington (DMC) and Marsh (MSM) are providing partial support. The Program Manager recommends the University of Iowa be awarded $75,000 for the first year of a five year continuing grant. The five-year continuing grant is to be cost shared this first year with $50,000 (CDR), $20,000 (DMC) and $5,000 (MSM). The U.S. Army, TACOM, is providing $50,000 to co-fund this Center with NSF. An additional $147,000 supplemental funding to augment the Center's research program is being provided by for other Government laboratories. Another $5,000 is for "Supplemental Funding of Women, Minority, and Handicapped Engineering Research Assistant." Follow on funding during the last four years will be in accordance with the following renewal criteria. Near the end of each 12-month period, the Program Manager and/or the Head of The Division of Cross-Disciplinary Research will review the progress of the Center on a number of renewal criteria, including the following: (1) extent to which university/industry interaction and collaboration is developing; (2) extent to which the support base for the center is expanding; (3) extent to which a robust research program is developing. If review is satisfactory, the Program Manager will recommend support of the next period of this continuing grant.

在机械系统动态，结构力学，设计敏感性分析，优化，计算机架构，计算机科学，数值分析和计算机图形的领域中，快速发展的技术需要集成到可以由行业使用的整体机械系统模拟和设计优化程序中。 由于NSF计划授予CDR 87-00749，爱荷华大学表明，机械系统的工业/大学合作研究中心是可行的，可行的。 这项为期五年的持续赠款与行业一起资助了爱荷华大学机械系统的工业/大学合作研究中心的启动。 该中心的研究计划正在解决：动态系统模拟，设计优化，高级软件系统集成以及设计过程的图形通信和控制。 超过两十家公司已成为该中心的成员，提供了大约100万美元的支持。 联合首席调查员及其同事是其领域的全国认可专家，并拥有经营该中心所必需的知识，资源和支持。 博士。 Depennington（DMC）和MARSH（MSM）正在提供部分支持。 计划经理建议爱荷华大学获得五年持续赠款的第一年的75,000美元。 五年的持续赠款将在第一年共享50,000美元（CDR），20,000美元（DMC）和5,000美元（MSM）。 美国陆军塔科姆（Tacom）提供50,000美元，与NSF共同资助该中心。 其他政府实验室还提供了另外147,000美元的补充资金来扩大该中心的研究计划。 另外5,000美元用于“妇女，少数民族和残障工程研究助理的补充资金”。 在过去的四年中，遵循资金将符合以下续签标准。 在每个12个月结束时，计划经理和/或跨学科研究部负责人将审查该中心在许多续签标准方面的进步，包括以下内容：（1）在多大程度上发展了大学/行业的互动和协作的范围； （2）中心支持基础扩大的程度； （3）强大的研究计划正在发展范围。 如果审核令人满意，则计划经理将建议对此持续赠款的下一阶段的支持。
