Structurlam products Ltd is a renowned Canadian company for its quality mass timber products and ability to fabricate complex design. The company developed a new generation hybrid composite glulam structural element while the performance is still unknown. The proposed research here will investigate the performance of this element under bending and compression. Both the regular […]

With the growing demand for energy efficient buildings, conventional steel wall studs are no longer an appropriate choice for exterior walls. Conventional steel studs cause an inordinately high degree of thermal bridging which lowers the energy efficiency of the building. To address this concern, Structa Wire Corporation started the development of an innovative steel stud […]

Environmental aging is responsible for many industrial failures. Using a protective coating is one of the most common and also efficient methods to protect material surfaces against environmental attack, and consequently extend their life. For modern coatings used for industrial applications, besides high chemical stability and good adhesion, new functionalities such electrical conductivity or anti-static […]

Increasing the productivity of agricultural fields is essential to secure our existing food supplies and provide for the growing world population. In this context, pesticides and fertilizers play an essential role in both increasing crop yields, as well as enhancing crop defenses against environmental stresses such as drought, pests, or diseases. However, the application of […]

À nos jours, les entreprises de fabrication des meubles en bois au Québec vivent une forte concurrence et plusieurs changements du marché. En même temps elles doivent offrir plusieurs designs et spécifications. Durant, ce projet on cherche d’améliorer ces performances pour un réseau d’entreprises constitué par Huppé Meubles Inc. et ses fournisseurs des meubles non-peints. […]

Ce projet a pour but de proposer aux exploitants des centrales hydroélectriques d’Hydro-Québec un modèle d’estimation et de prédiction de la dégradation de leurs turbines hydrauliques. Celui-ci pourra être régulièrement mis à jour en se basant sur des inspections planifiées et réalisées de façon logique. L’estimation de la dégradation des systèmes est essentielle à la […]

Design of loadbearing, out-of-plane (OOP), tall masonry walls tends to have stringent limits related to their buckling stability and the scarcity of research on their structural reliability. This currently puts the masonry industry at a disadvantage as a construction alternative compared to other structural options. The dearth of masonry research and innovation in slender wall […]

Une entreprise canadienne désire commercialiser un matériau composite bois-polymère (CBP). Ce matériau vise plusieurs applications, principalement dans le secteur de la construction. Afin de percer ce marché en croissance, l’entreprise travaillera avec l’Université du Québec an Abitibi-Témiscamingue (UQAT) afin de développer des formulations de CBP qui n’absorbent pas d’eau. L’entreprise partenaire bénéficierait de l’expertise de […]

AF is an irregular heart rhythm resulting from abnormal electrical impulses and is the most common cardiac arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Ablation therapy has been used to eliminate areas responsible for maintaining the arrhythmia using radiofrequency energy. Targeting the culprit regions usually require accurate estimation of activation times in IEGM recordings. The conventional time […]

Internet of Things (IoT) is a topic that many enterprises including Ericsson are pursuing to find innovative ways of providing a better and futuristic service to the clients. The large amount of CapEx and OpEx related to IoT infrastructure deployment and operation and humongous amount of data generated by IoT devices on the edge and […]

I have been recently graduated from the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science of University of Ottawa. I did my PhD in Image Color Processing, and I found out the available position with Irystec Company is fit to my knowledge and experience. As a PhD candidate, I had the opportunity to gain extensive experience […]

Powder Metallurgy (PM) is a production method suitable for accurately fabricating complex shapes to a desired size and shape, thus minimizing the need for machining. This makes it cost effective in comparison to other manufacturing technologies. In order to facilitate the production of PM parts, a lubricant is added to the iron based powder during […]
