The Centre aims to build an attractive scientific working environment where fundamental knowledge is created through multidisciplinary theoretical, numerical and experimental research on different scales. Interdisciplinary research beyond the state of the art will be coupled with the transfer of knowledge and technology to key business sectors: oil and gas, physical security and transportation. This will provide a sound foundation for the creation and development of smart, cost effective, safe and environmentally friendly structures and products.

Our Vision

To establish a world-leading centre for multi-scale testing, modelling and simulation of materials and structures for industrial applications

Our Objective

To provide a research and technology platform for the creation and development of smart, cost effective, safe and environmentally friendly structures and products through multi-scale testing, modelling and simulation.
