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 名学生提供支持，以参加将于 2018 年 8 月 13 日至 15 日在德克萨斯州奥斯汀举行的第二十九届国际固体自由成型 (SFF) 研讨会，这是一次增材制造会议。 SFF 研讨会被广泛认为是世界上增材制造 (AM) 相关研究最重要的学术会议之一。 2017年，来自全球20个国家的654名大学、国家实验室和公司的研究人员齐聚一堂，在为期3天的活动中共发表了473篇技术演讲和海报。学生将有机会参加为期 3 天的技术课程，重点关注增材制造应用、工艺开发、材料、建模和设计的最新进展。所有学生获奖者都需要在研讨会期间提交论文和/或海报，并参加为期 3 天的活动。资助机会将广泛且尽早地公布，以便为学生提供充足的申请时间。获奖者将由委员会选出，奖项将涵盖学生注册费用。 通过参加研讨会并展示他们的工作，学生将获得对增材制造前沿研究现状的广泛知识和了解。 他们还将有机会向知识渊博的观众进行技术演示，从而获得专业发展的机会。 此外，他们将有机会与增材制造领域的其他专业和学生研究人员建立联系，从而建立未来合作者和同事的个人网络。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力评估进行评估，认为值得支持。优点和更广泛的影响审查标准。
