Advanced Mechanics and Materials Engineering International Laboratory

(AMME-International)

The AMME-International laboratory is a collaborative partnership between the Advanced Thermomechanical Engineering, Analysis and Modeling Laboratory (A-TEAM), a cooperative of participating faculty at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL), USA, and the Groupe de Physique des Matériaux (GPM) at the University of Rouen (UR) Normandy, France.

The AMME-International laboratory is focused on all that considers the advanced analysis, modeling, characterization, and engineering of materials, with particular emphasis on the study, use, and disposal of the materials and systems of the future. In this goal AMME-International focuses its work by integrating the complimentary activities of the laboratories A-TEAM and GPM.
