Research activity
The scientific research activity in the Department is structured along several main
research directions:
- Design and optimization of technological processes. A traditional research
field, with many valuable results. Design and manufacturing of high performance
gears. Ecological aspects in manufacturing. PhD advisor in this field:
Prof. Csaba GYENGE.
- Rapid Prototyping. Recent research field, with a rapidly growing team and i
nvolvment. The laboratory has extremely up-to date facilities and the first thesis
are under development. PhD advisor: Prof. Petru BERCE.
- Design and manufacturing of complex cutting tools. Traditional research field,
with an important renewal due to the computational methods of analysis and
optimization. PhD advisor: Prof. Gligor ABRUDAN.
- Technology of the composite materials forming. Only recently
studied in Romania, these materials are currently studied in our department,
in joint projects with confirmed scientists from France. PhD advisor:
Prof. Horatiu IANCAU.
- Sheet metal mechanical behavior, characterisation and simulation. The
experience of our people in this field is confirmed by the current involvment of two
of them in European Brite-Euram research projects concerning sheet metal forming.
Advisor: Prof. Dorel BANABIC
Of course, besides these directions concerning larger teams (most of the PhD
candidates), other research themes are studied, most of them subject to contracts
with industrial partners.
