Engineering Case Studies

Innovation and advanced design approaches by engineers can solve complex real-world challenges.

Increased insight can be achieved by improving the materials and processes used in the manufacturing route or measuring parameters such as stress and strain directly to validate computational models. Additionally, in the event of catastrophic failure of the engineering system, a forensic method is often needed to re-engineer the component or system.

Diamond provides specialist analytical techniques for the atomic to microscale characterisation of materials ranging from high-performance components and devices through to diagnostic tools and drug delivery technologies.

Below are some examples of how these techniques have been applied.
