Materials & Processes

The Materials & Processes Division of UES is an advanced materials technology research and development group.  Our scientists work in an interactive, interdisciplinary environment to solve materials and processing problems.  While they have traditionally worked on development projects of interest to DoD, and particularly with the US Air Force Research Laboratory's Materials and Manufacturing Directorate and Propulsion  Directorate at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, the expertise of this group extends well beyond the military applications of materials and processes.  The wide range of materials background and experience of UES scientists is a singular, comprehensive resource for R&D, problem solving and consulting to Government as well as industry.
