Research Thrust Areas
In Spring 2005, the MINE faculty established five major research thrusts in the effort to increase research, foster collaboration, enhance graduate education and advance relevant state of the art engineering technologies.
Each thrust area is led by an appointed chair:
- Structural Dynamics, Vibro-Acoustics and Controls (Chair: Dr. Randall Allemang)
- Solid Mechanics and Nano/Bio Mechanics (Chair: Dr. Yijun Liu)
- Thermal and Fluid Systems (Chair: Dr. Raj Manglik)
- Intelligent Manufacturing and Design (Chair: Dr. Sam Anand)
- Nuclear and Radiological Engineering (Chair: Dr. John Christenson)
