CBET-0832317HrenyaIntellectual Merit. The purpose of this proposal is to solicit funds in support of participants to the 2009 Institute of Mathematics and its Applications (IMA) Workshop on Dense, Granular Flows (January 5-9, 2009; Cambridge, United Kingdom). Granular flows are prevalent in a range of natural and industrial systems, yet a basic understanding of many phenomena is lacking. The IMA workshop provides a unique forum for the exchange of fresh scientific ideas. A guiding principle of this workshop includes the presentation of new, unpublished work followed by free, unhampered discussion among participants from disciplines that normally do not intersect, namely, the physics and engineering communities. This IMA workshop will include speakers from a wide range of disciplines, including Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, Mechanics, and Materials Science, and will involve participants from around the world.In order to move beyond incremental research, cross-fertilization of participants is needed, which involves not only bringing these scientists together, but also providing an environment that promotes their interaction. The structure of the IMA workshop accomplishes this task via a smaller number of participants (~60), formal discussion periods after every talk, poster sessions, and shared meals and onsite housing.Broader Impacts. With the help of NSF, financial support will be provided to emerging scientists (students, postdocs, and junior faculty) and underrepresented groups to ensure a diverse audience. The diversity of disciplines and promotion of intensive discussions will provide an environment in which new collaborations can be forged to help tackle longstanding problems, and one in which young scholars can intermingle with established researchers. Such interaction is critical in helping to address the national need for training of U.S. students in the area of particle science.

CBET-0832317HRENYYERTECTUAL FEAR。该提案的目的是征集资金，以支持参与者参加2009年数学研究所及其应用程序（IMA）关于密集，颗粒状流的研讨会（2009年1月5日至9日；英国剑桥）。 颗粒流在各种自然和工业系统中都普遍存在，但缺乏对许多现象的基本理解。 IMA研讨会为交换新的科学思想提供了一个独特的论坛。该研讨会的指导原则包括介绍新的未发表的作品，然后在通常不会相交的学科的参与者中进行自由，不受欢迎的讨论，即物理和工程社区。 IMA研讨会将包括来自各种学科的演讲者，包括工程，物理，数学，力学和材料科学，并将涉及来自世界各地的参与者。在超越增量研究的过程中，需要对参与者进行交叉施用，这不仅涉及这些科学家，而且还将这些科学家融合在一起，还可以将环境促进他们促进他们的互动的环境。 IMA研讨会的结构通过少数参与者（约60），每次谈话后的正式讨论期，海报会议，共享的餐点和现场住房来完成这项任务。在NSF的帮助下，将向新兴的科学家（学生，博士后和初级教师）和代表性不足的团体提供财政支持，以确保多样化的受众。学科的多样性和促进密集讨论的促进将提供一个环境，可以在其中建立新的合作来帮助解决长期存在的问题，而年轻学者可以与知名研究人员交织在一起。这种互动对于帮助解决粒子科学领域的美国学生培训的国家需求至关重要。
