Additional Information
MPI is an industry-university alliance dedicated to advancing the state of the art in the metal processing industry. Through its focus on metal processing, MPI brings fundamental understanding to existing processes, develops new methods, and addresses management-technology interface issues with input from its industrial partners. Though the work is fundamental in nature, the context of the work has well-identified commercial applications. MPI's research is strengthened by the experiential educational program it offers to both undergraduate and graduate students, and by the tutorials and special courses it makes available to the work force of member companies.
