This award supports a planning workshop for a new Industry-University Cooperative Research Center (IUCRC) aimed at improving composite material joining and repair (CJAR) technologies. Composite materials are vital to the health and competitiveness of several important industry sectors, including automotive, manufacturing, energy, and aerospace. As composites involve different compositions and element concentration/orientation and tolerances that vary widely, current CJAR practices are highly specialized, labor-intensive, and require experienced technicians to complete the critical inspection, maintenance and repair jobs. Partner institutions including Georgia Institute of Technology, Oakland University, and the University of Tennessee-Knoxville will work collaboratively with various industrial companies, in the automotive, aerospace, energy, and bio-medical sectors of the US economy. The Georgia Tech Site of D-CJAR will primarily work with firms in materials (Chomarat, Henkel, Owens Corning), aerostructures manufacturing (Boeing, Fokker Aerostructures, Lockheed Martin), system operators/maintenance providers (AFSC-Robins AFB, Delta), and equipment vendors (Optomec, Siemens). Faculty and student teams at the partner universities will work with industry members to conduct precompetitive research to develop and disseminate basic and applied technologies/knowledge to facilitate rapid, reliable, and cost-effective composite joining and repair, with an overall goal of significantly reducing costs, cycle time, and variation of CJAR operations within ten (10) years.With the goal of transforming the current labor-intensive and specialized processes into science-based, automated, digital CJAR processes, the Georgia Tech Site of D-CJAR will primarily focus on developing CJAR technologies for maintenance, repair, and overhaul of aerostructures, automobiles, and infrastructure. We expect advances in several fields and knowledge domains around CJAR, including (1) design and analysis, (2) materials and process engineering, (3) testing and NDE, and (4) data analytics. We will apply diverse advanced digital techniques, including advanced computational modeling, sensing, materials characterization, and machine learning to practical CJAR cases that will also advance the education and workforce preparedness of students working on projects at the partner universities.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.

该奖项为新的行业 - 大学合作研究中心（IUCRC）的规划研讨会提供了支持，该研究中心旨在改善复合材料加入和维修（CJAR）技术。复合材料对于多个重要行业的健康和竞争力至关重要，包括汽车，制造，能源和航空航天。由于复合材料涉及不同的组成和元素浓度/取向和公差，因此当前的CJAR实践是高度专业化的，劳动力密集的，并且需要经验丰富的技术人员来完成重要的检查，维护和维修工作。佐治亚大学理工学院，奥克兰大学和田纳西大学 - 诺克斯维尔大学的合作机构将与多家工业公司合作，在汽车，航空航天，能源和美国经济的生物医学领域。 D-CJAR的佐治亚理工学院网站将主要与材料公司（Chomarat，Henkel，Owens Corning），航空结构制造公司（波音，Fokker Aerostructures，Lockheed Martin），系统操作员/维护提供商（AFSC-Robins AFB，Delta）和设备vendors（Optomec）（Optomec，SiemensEnsensemensemensemensemensemensemensemensemensemensemens）合作。伙伴大学的教师和学生团队将与行业成员合作，进行预竞争性研究，以开发和传播基本和应用的技术/知识，以促进快速，可靠和具有成本效益的综合连接和维修的快速，可靠和具有成本效益的综合连接和维修，总体目标是显着降低成本，周期时间，并在10（10）中的循环范围内的循环范围，并在10（10）中差异。 D-CJAR的乔治亚技术站点CJAR流程将主要集中于开发用于维护，维修和大修航空结构，汽车和基础设施的CJAR技术。我们预计CJAR周围的几个领域和知识领域的进步，包括（1）设计和分析，（2）材料和过程工程，（3）测试和NDE以及（4）数据分析。我们将应用各种高级数字技术，包括先进的计算建模，传感，材料表征和机器学习，以实用CJAR案例，这些案例还将提高合作伙伴大学中从事项目的学生的教育和劳动力准备，这反映了NSF的法定任务，并通过基金会的知识优点和广泛的criperia criperia criperia criperia crightia crighitia criptia crightia criperia crightia rection the Awsionaution。
