Research Groups
The Department of Mechanical Engineering occupies one wing of the John Hodgins Engineering Building. This wing contains specialized laboratories equipped with modern instrumentation and dedicated data acquisition systems. The computational research is carried out on state-of-the-art workstations with direct access to SHARC computing network. A CAD/CAM network is also available in the departmental PC laboratory for use in courses and research. The following is a list of current research groups, but more detail can be found in the research summaries of each individual faculty member. |
