This grant provides support for 80 students to participate in the Twenty-Ninth Annual International Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF) Symposium, An Additive Manufacturing Conference to be held August 13-15, 2018, in Austin, Texas. The SFF Symposium is widely considered one of the premier academic conference on additive manufacturing (AM) related research in the world. In 2017, it brought together 654 researchers from universities, national laboratories, and companies from 20 countries around the world, who together presented 473 technical presentations and posters during the 3-day event. Students will have the opportunity to engage in 3 days of technical sessions focused on the latest advances in AM applications, process development, materials, modeling, and design. All student awardees will be expected to present a paper and/or poster during the symposium and to attend all 3 days of the event. The funding opportunity will be announced broadly and early enough to provide ample time for students to apply. Awardees will be selected by committee and the awards will cover the cost of student registration. By attending and presenting their work in the symposium, students will gain extensive knowledge and understanding of the state of cutting-edge research in AM. They will also have the opportunity for professional development by delivering a technical presentation to a highly knowledgeable audience. Furthermore, they will have the opportunity to network with other professional and student researchers in the AM field and thereby build their personal network of future collaborators and colleagues.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.

这笔赠款为80名学生提供了支持，参加了将于2018年8月13日至15日在德克萨斯州奥斯汀举行的第29届年度国际固体自由形式制造（SFF）研讨会。 SFF研讨会被广泛认为是世界上有关添加剂制造（AM）相关研究的主要学术会议之一。 2017年，它汇集了来自全球20个国家的大学，国家实验室和公司的654名研究人员，他们在为期3天的活动中共同介绍了473个技术演讲和海报。学生将有机会参加3天的技术会议，重点介绍AM应用，过程开发，材料，建模和设计的最新进展。所有学生获奖者都将在研讨会期间介绍论文和/或海报，并参加活动的所有三天。资金机会将被广泛宣布，足够早，为学生提供足够的时间申请。获奖者将由委员会选择，该奖项将支付学生注册的费用。 通过参加并介绍他们在研讨会上的工作，学生将对AM的尖端研究状态获得广泛的知识和理解。 他们还将通过向知识渊博的受众提供技术演讲，为专业发展提供机会。 此外，他们将有机会与AM领域的其他专业和学生研究人员进行建立联系，从而建立他们的未来合作者和同事的个人网络。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的评估标准通过评估来获得支持的。
