Department of Mechanical Engineering

Research

​The professional and scientific research undertaken by the Department of Mechanical Engineering staff focus on Plasmatic Nitriding and Oxynitriding Technology, Surface technologies and films, Composite materials, Precision Cutting, Quality Control in Military Industry, Heat Treatment Technology, Degradation processes, Computer aided simulation of mechanic, Statically indeterminate systems dynamic behaviour, Wound ballistics, Thermomechanics, Thermodynamics, Hydromechanics and Hydrodynamics. The department collaborates particularly with technically based universities, maintenance and production plants on research and development tasks.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering guarantees the accreditation of habilitation and designation procedure “Material Science and Engineering” under the Faculty of Military Technology at the University of Defence.
 
Group of material science is aimed at research and development of surface layers which are created by plasma and PVD technologies, to processes of  fatique elements and evaluace mechanical characteristics after heat-treatment.
 
Group of engineering technologies and Mechanics focus on non-cutting forming, especially hot forming and cold forming, on foundry industry especially in the area of special foundry technologies, soldering and brazing, welding and special technologies. Special activity in this group is focused on   strength and dynamics calculations,  simulation of thermodynamical processes, simulation of ice coating on airs and circulation of liquid, burning and combustion in heat instalation.
