Engineering Mechanics Institute (EMI)
Created on October 1, 2007, the Engineering Mechanics Institute (EMI) replaces the former ASCE Engineering Mechanics Division.
EMI is the premier interdisciplinary organization of engineering mechanics that promotes research and the application of scientific and mathematical principles to address existing and emerging engineering and societal issues.
New and notable
Our group strives to understand the inner workings of granular materials, rocks, and concrete subjected to static and dynamic mechanical loads.
Four Manuals of Practice (MOP), edited by Mohammed M. Ettouney, Ph.D., P.E., which contain useful information for the average engineer in his or her everyday work.
