The IDEALab

This lab centers on development of methods for the design and control of energy-based manufacturing systems, using inverse and optimization methods. Experimental testbeds are used to verify the design predictions. It normally involves two to three faculty and three to five graduate students.

IMPACT Lab (Integrated Mechanics of Processing & Composites Manufacturing Laboratory)

This lab has capability for the manufacturing and testing of composites, electronic components and packaging

Characterization of Manufactured Items

The Center has access to facilities for characterizing manufactured items at the human and micro- and nanoscale (electron microscopes, X-ray
diffractometers, etc.)

Computational facilities

Aside from the major resources available from The University, dedicated computational resources within the Center include those of IdeaLab and the Laboratory for Freeform Fabrication.
