Nanomechanics and Nanomechatronics Research Lab

Overview

Nanomechanics and Nanomechatronics Research Lab is located in School of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Tehran. We are a research group studying the mechanical properties of materials and systems at small-scales ranging from atomistic dimensions to a few hundred micrometers to apply them in MEMS/NEMS, biomechanics, mechatronics, and metamaterials.

Miniaturization of device dimensions towards the micro/nanoscale can offer many advantages in terms of operation speed, device density, functionality and sensitivity. Integration of nanomaterials is expected to enable breakthroughs in areas like sensing, energy conversion, microfluidics, metrology, computing and communication.
