Planet Cetim: join the Cetim community on Facebook and Viadeo

The Cetim community is now on Facebook and Viadeo. Meet our experts and react live to the latest engineering news on-line.

Be the first to join us! You will find a Facebook page specially created for you and specifically dedicated to Fatigue Design 2011, the 4th international congress on fatigue design. You will find the complete programme for the event and the latest information on the world of fatigue. Facebook is also the opportunity for you to share your experiences and impressions by leaving comments on the articles published, by asking your own questions and by replying to members' questions. Viadeo Cetim has also created its own page on Viadeo. This page is a useful tool for professional networking and will help you to follow current events in the world of engineering and stay in contact with the network’s engineers. All you have to do to find the on-line engineering community on Viadeo is enter "Cetim" in the site's search engine.

Presentation

Mastering various types of materials (metallic, polymer, composite...) and their particular implementation through processing and assembly processes is the very base of mechanical engineering industry. The technologies used in this sector gradually evolve but remain critical for everybody.
This technological focus includes projects relating to : virtual simulation of manufacturing processes, implementation of innovative manufacturing processes or improvement of existing ones, innovative assembly processes (mechanical ones, but also processes using adhesive bonding or welding), characterization and definition of using conditions for new materials (metallic or non-metallic ones) and nanostructured materials or surfaces.
