LABORATORY FOR ADVANCED NONDESTRUCTIVE TESTING, IN-SITU MONITORING AND EVALUATION (LANDTIE)

Exploring the Wonders of Science

The Laboratory for Advanced NonDestructive Testing, In-situ monitoring and Evaluation (LANDTIE) is a research lab in Department of Manufacturing Engineering at Georgia Southern University in Statesboro, GA. The lab was founded in 2018 with a focus on fundamental and applied research projects on Nondestructive Testing and Evaluation, In-line monitoring, and Metrology for Advanced Manufacturing, Materials, Systems, and Infrastructures. We are proud to have created a creative, collaborative, and open-minded lab environment where each member both offers and receives support from one another.
