SYNERGISTIC ACTIVITIES

IMDP.inc is a Georgia based small business that is involved in research, technology and developing of models and modeling tools. This company interfaces between University and Industry trying to find innovative solutions from materials, processing, surface coatings and treatments to materials design by using especially developed modeling software. Although IMDP.inc has its own facility it is strongly affiliated with the Department of Material Science and Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. IMDP’s founders worked extensively on materials such as aluminum, magnesium, titanium, steels, Carbon-Carbon Composites, Carbonanotubes, High Tc Superconductors, Magnetoresitive Materials, Shape Memory Materials, Nano-magnets, Optical Materials and Fuel Cell Materials. The company is a Phase I and Phase II awardee(Topic N07-125) and has gained experience in collaborating with larger prime government contractors.
