This proposal supports student involvement and attendance at the 2009 SIAM/ACM Joint Conference on Geometric and Physical Modeling. This four day event draws between 200?300 attendees across a broad set of interdisciplinary academic areas including mathematics (geometry, topology, numerical methods, optimization), engineering (design, modeling, simulation) and computer science (graphics, computational geometry). The meeting is a unique, multi-disciplinary event. Whereas most scientific meetings in the above areas are ?stove-piped? by the individual disciplines, the SIAM Activity Group on Geometric Design and the ACM Symposium on Solid and Physical Modeling have an over 30 year history of spanning disciplines. The above event is bringing together scientists and engineers, both from academia and industry, around the themes of geometry and topology and their role in product design, manufacturing, simulation and other applications.The intellectual merit of the proposed activity lies in the educational opportunities and the shared research objectives of the community. By providing travel grants for students studying in these areas, the NSF encourages the students to pursue interdisciplinary work and enhance their academic experiences. Secondarily, the academic subjects covered by this meeting are of vital importance in many areas of critical national need. Work presented at this meeting covers diverse topics ranging from biomedical CAD and biomanufacturing to sustainable design and optimization of next generation materials. The broader impact is found in developing the careers of the student supported by these travel grants and their work in these areas of critical national need. Given the central role geometry and topology play in everything from product design to virtual training systems to advanced manufacturing technology, the proper nurturing of these activities?especially those of an interdisciplinary nature?is vital to producing scientists and engineers who can meet the nation?s needs.

该建议支持学生参与和参加2009年SIAM/ACM几何和物理建模联合会议。这个为期四天的活动吸引了200次？300名参与者，包括数学（几何，拓扑，数字方法，优化），工程（设计，建模，模拟）和计算机科学（图形，计算几何学），包括数学（几何，拓扑，数字方法，优化），包括数学（几何，拓扑，数字方法，优化）。会议是一个独特的多学科活动。而上述领域的大多数科学会议是炉子pip的？在各个学科中，几何设计和固体和物理建模的ACM研讨会上的SIAM活动组具有超过30年的跨学科历史。以上活动是将来自学术界和行业的科学家和工程师汇集到几何和拓扑主题及其在产品设计，制造，模拟和其他应用中的作用。社区的共同研究目标。通过为在这些领域学习的学生提供旅行赠款，NSF鼓励学生从事跨学科工作并增强他们的学业经验。其次，这次会议所涵盖的学术科目在许多关键的国家需求中至关重要。在这次会议上提出的工作涵盖了从生物医学CAD和生物制造到可持续设计和下一代材料优化的各种主题。这些旅行补助金及其在这些关键的民族需求领域的工作中，在发展学生的职业方面发现了更广泛的影响。鉴于从产品设计到虚拟培训系统再到高级制造技术的核心作用几何和拓扑扮演的核心作用，这些活动的适当培养？尤其是跨学科性质的活动？需要。
