Swansea Materials Research and Testing Ltd (SMaRT) Information

SMaRT has been created to combine two long standing areas of expertise at Swansea University; world class mechanical characterisation of advanced structural materials alongside the academic interpretation of the mechanisms controlling material deformation and fracture. SMaRT can provide support for many forms of standard mechanical property assessment, whilst at the same time addressing bespoke forms of specimen or sub-element testing where novel test development is required. In addition to generating mechanical test data, SMaRT can perform post-test failure analysis utilising optical and scanning electron microscopy, electron back scattered diffraction (EBSD) and metallographic sectioning. You can rely on the quality of the data generated, as SMaRT holds ISO 17025 accreditation for specific mechanical test standards. In addition, SMaRT is also an approved supplier of mechanical test data to Rolls-Royce plc and Rolls-Royce Deutcshland Ltd & Co KG. SMaRT has the capacity to conduct short-term consultancies or support larger scale research programmes, all professionally managed by our skilled team of academic, research and technical staff. For all your material testing needs, SMaRT can provide comprehensive mechanical testing and analysis to the highest quality.
