Consultancy Services
The PTMC is one of the leading academic providers of professional, technology-based consultancy and support services in Europe. Our main activities are short to medium term projects (1 day to 1 year) undertaken at the university.

- Machine system design, simulation and analysis
- Control system design and analysis
- Vehicle dynamics
- Structural dynamics
- Aircraft and automotive systems
