Mechanical Engineering

The Department of Mechanical Engineering is one of the largest academic departments in South Carolina. Our faculty's diverse research expertise crosses disciplines, often partnering with other departments and colleges within the university.

Advanced Materials and Manufacturing

Complex and Autonomous Systems

Particulate Matter

Composite Materials

Taking advantage of the combined expertise of theoretical mechanics, computational mechanics, polymer chemistry and processing, and composite manufacturing, we aim to investigate multiscale, multiphysics phenomena and interface behavior in polymer composites, ceramic composites and nanocomposites, study fracture mechanics with contact and friction and mechanics in material processing and develop smart and scalable composite materials and structures.
