Manufacturing
Research in Manufacturing focuses on mechatronics (the merging of electronics and mechanical systems), computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM), nonconventional processes, and concurrent design and manufacturing. Current research includes application-specific integrated circuits (ASIC), flexible servo-controller design, integration of CAD/CAM and geometric modeling, electric discharge machining, plasma-activated sintering, and enterprise-level information integration.
