Materials Research is an interdisciplinary subject bringing many traditional sciences together with engineering, in the investigation of the relationships between and among the structure and properties of materials, and how these related to materials processing and performance. MMC is a multi-user, shared instrumentation facilities for materials research and characterization. It regroups various laboratories:

Other equipment
The Department of Mining and Materials Engineering, 成人VR视频 has experts in a variety of materials fields ranging from aerospace, automotive, biomaterials and tissue engineering, characterization, electron microscopy, computer-aided modelling, electronic materials, energy, hydrothermal processing, metal processing, mineral processing, nano materials, pyrometallurgy, and surface science and engineering. We characterize materials, we study with state-of-the-art technology, and we model their properties with the help of computers.
The list of equipment includes some instruments that are not operated by MMC but by individual researchers or other shared research facilities. You can contact us if you are looking for a specific instrument. MMC will direct you to the appropriate person for your characterization work.
