This grant provides funds for students and early-career researchers to attend the 2022 Gordon Research Conference on Tribology: Understanding Sliding Interfaces to Master Tribological Systems Across Length Scales; Bates College, Lewiston, Maine; 25 June to 1 July 2022. Tribology is the science of friction and wear at the sliding contacts. Research and engineering efforts in tribology address the physical and chemical mechanisms underlying friction and wear, and aim to design materials, processes, and devices such that new solutions to technological challenges become available. Advances in tribology help to reduce energy consumption by lowering friction, to prolong the lifetime and enhance the safety of mechanical systems by reducing wear, and to decrease harmful emissions in applications from vehicles to manufacturing through reduction of energy use. Tribology also impacts the life of humans and animals that move on earth. The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Tribology is a forum to exchange results of cutting-edge research amongst an interdisciplinary group of scientists and engineers who are at the forefront of addressing fundamental and applied challenges in this field. This award will promote participations of students and early-career researchers from diverse backgrounds at the GRC. This subtitle “Understanding Sliding Interfaces to Master Tribological Systems Across Length Scales” reflects the fact a comprehensive understanding of tribological phenomena requires multidisciplinary knowledge encompassing a range of classical fields in science and engineering, including chemistry, physics, mechanical engineering, and materials science over multiple length scales. Most tribologists are trained in one of these areas with emphasis on either microscale (atomic, molecular, nano) or macroscale (system-level) phenomena or methodologies and then exposed to other fields or scales of tribology as they make transitions from schools to real-world situations. Realizing the multidisciplinary and multiscale challenges in tribology is believed that the next significant breakthroughs are likely to be found at the interfaces between the classical trainings. To achieve these breakthroughs, the very diverse tribology community needs to come together to learn and discover together. The 2022 GRC will provide a venue for this discussion and learning.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.

该赠款为学生和早期职业研究人员提供资金参加 2022 年戈登摩擦学研究会议：了解滑动界面以掌握跨长度尺度的摩擦学系统；贝茨学院，刘易斯顿，2022 年 6 月 25 日至 7 月 1 日。摩擦学方面的研究和工程工作解决了摩擦和磨损背后的物理和化学机制，旨在设计材料、工艺和设备，以实现新的目标。摩擦学的进步有助于通过降低摩擦来减少能源消耗，通过减少磨损来延长机械系统的使用寿命并提高安全性，并通过减少能源使用来减少从车辆到制造等应用中的有害排放。摩擦学还影响在地球上移动的人类和动物的生活。戈登摩擦学研究会议 (GRC) 是一个由处于基础研究前沿的跨学科科学家和工程师小组交流前沿研究成果的论坛。并在这方面应用了挑战该奖项将促进 GRC 不同背景的学生和早期职业研究人员的参与。该副标题“理解滑动界面以掌握跨长度尺度的摩擦学系统”反映了对摩擦学现象的全面理解需要涵盖一系列多学科知识的事实。大多数摩擦学家都接受过这些领域之一的培训，重点是微观尺度（原子、分子、纳米）或多个尺度的科学和工程经典领域，包括化学、物理、机械工程和材料科学。宏观尺度（系统级）现象或方法，然后在从学校过渡到现实世界的过程中接触摩擦学的其他领域或尺度，人们相信，下一个重大突破很可能是摩擦学中的多学科和多尺度挑战。为了实现这些突破，非常多样化的摩擦学社区需要聚集在一起学习和发现。2022 年 GRC 将为这种讨论和学习提供一个场所。通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，NSF 的法定使命被认为值得支持。
