AMADE has nearly two decades of experience in the study, characterisation and analysis of the mechanical behaviour of advanced materials and structures.
COMPOSITES
Understanding the mechanical behaviour and fracture of composite materials and developing robust and reliable numerical models for an improved structural design.
STRUCTURES
Study of structural design with advanced materials.
OUR SERVICES
Composite testing lab
Highly capable composites testing laboratory based in Girona’s technology park.
CHARACTERISATION TESTS
Standard and state-of-the-art material characterisation tests.
Non-Destructive Inspection lab
Inspection of microstructure and surface and internal defects
Simulations
Development of numerical models for the analysis of advanced materials.
SERVICES
Our experience allows us to offer a wide range of services on two main blocks:
MASTER OF SCIENCE IN MECHANICS OF MATERIALS & STRUCTURES
The knowledge adquired in our AMADE research team is transferred to the Official Master’s degree of the European Higher Education Area: Master of Science in Mechanics of Materials and Structures (MMS) at the University of Girona
