Thermal Wave Group - Wayne State University
At Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan, students enjoy the benefits of studying at a large research institution while retaining the personalized attention of a small liberal arts college. The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences offers majors, minors, and co-majors across 24 departments and more than a dozen programs, centers, and institutes, providing a broad-based liberal arts education. Each department within the College includes a dedicated advising staff to assist students in planning a course of study and to help make that important bridge from college to career.

Institute of Polymer Testing and Polymer Science - IKT
The Institute for Polymer Testing and Polymer Science (IKT) at the University of Stuttgart was founded in 1963 by Prof. Dr.-Ing. S. Wintergerst. There is a staff of 62, organized into 5 departments: engineering; life-cycle engineering; polymer and environmental analysis; polymer physics and plastography; and nondestructive testing. There are ~200 students.

Manufacturing Visualization Research Department of Mechanical Engineering - Clemson University
In Education: To graduate well qualified professional engineers and researchers to support the advancement of manufacturing science.
In Research: To acquire, develop, research and disseminate new innovations to visualize the manufacturing physics.

Materials Research Centre - MRC
An interdisciplinary research centre within the University of Bath Department of Mechanical Engineering. The Materials Research Centre has a sustained record of excellence in research. The Centre has excellent modern equipment for measurements of structural chemical, physical, and mechanical properties of materials and for preparation and processing of a wide range of materials.

Centre for Imaging Research and Advanced Materials Characterization - CIRAMC Centre
The Centre for Imaging Research and Advanced Materials Characterization (CIRAMC Centre) specializes in development of new high frequency acoustic and acousto-optic imaging systems and conducts research in advanced principles and methods for the imaging and quantitative characterization of surface, sub-surface and bulk materials structures.

LASer & Electro-optical Research in engineering metrology - LAS.E.R.
Le Laboratoire du Laser a été crée par Franco Gori en 1972. Dans les premières années la ligne principale de recherche concerné l’holographie et l’interférométrie holographique. En particulier, la première application de l’interférométrie holographique à la diagnostique des œuvres d’art est née ici (1972 -1975) et précisément la diagnostique non-destructive des biens culturels est le domaine de nos activités de recherche le plus connu dans le monde entier. Le dernier mais plus important courant de recherche est formé par l’utilisation de la thermographie dans le secteur de la diagnostique non-destructive et de l’épargne énergétique et par des nouveaux systèmes diagnostiques intégrés, qui utilisent plus techniques de recherche.
