The Nano/Micro Mechanics of Materials Laboratory is located in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science and Engineering at Cyprus University of Technology. It utilizes and develops advanced experimental and computational micro- and nano-mechanical tools for materials explorations, in order to provide a fundamental understanding of the underlying physics (nano- and micro-scale) that control the macroscopic response; at the level where materials are employed in engineering applications. The overarching theme is to stimulate knowledge-based innovation through fundamental scientific understanding.
