Engineering Products & Design Division

TARRC's Engineering Products & Design Division (EPDD) is headed by Hamid Ahmadi and is made up of two units:

The Engineering Design Unit, headed by Dr Alan Muhr, and the Product Evaluation and Testing Unit, headed by Paul Brown.

The Engineering Products and Design Division is a centre of excellence for the development and design of rubber engineering components ranging from small automotive mounts and bushes through anti-seismic devices to large marine fenders. Engineers are not only experts in the principles of design of elastomeric engineering components, but also in general engineering functions such as shock, noise and vibration control.

TARRC’s comprehensive range of testing facilities also falls under this Division. Routine physical testing can be carried out to most international and national standards and the laboratory’s tyre testing equipment makes up one of the most comprehensive independent tyre test facilities in the world. The laboratories are also well equipped for the dynamic testing of materials and components.

A list of TARRC staff can be found in Organisation structure.
