Metallic materials have been used in various applications such as gas sensors, space lubrication, and power transmission. Under different environmental conditions, materials can have vastly different friction properties. Understanding the wear and friction properties of materials is imperative for determining suitable materials for different applications, although oftentimes poses a challenge. Recently, the Colas Group developed […]

Non-sewered sanitation (NSS) technologies are common forms of improved and primarily onsite sanitation technology. It is estimated that globally, 40% of the population is served by these onsite sanitation systems. Research on NSS technologies lags substantially behind that of conventional wastewater treatment. The design and construction of these systems assumes the passive biodegradation of accumulated […]

Comminution, the process of crushing and grinding ore to liberate minerals, is the most energy intensive part of the processing flowsheet and accounts for upwards of 75% of the overall energy consumption of the processing plant. Ideally we would only crush and grind those rocks that contain economically extractable amounts of minerals. MineSense has developed […]

A novel transmitter architecture which presents more power efficiency than that of the transmitters being used currently in mobile communication base stations, is proposed in this research project. The result of this research fills the gap between the theoretical idea behind this transmitter structure and its practical usage in cellular network base stations. This transmitter […]

The concept of hierarchy can be applied to a wide range of immaterial and material systems, including living organisms and artificial constructions, to enhance their performance through hierarchical materials design and synthesis. However, this approach is currently limited by the lack of strategies that provide hierarchical control of matter across all size regimes, from nano […]

Ce projet de recherche aura pour objectif d’optimiser l’exploitation et la maintenance de l’un des actifs d’Ivanhoé Cambridge, présent sur la Place Ville Marie. Pour ce faire, ce projet étudiera la piste du jumeau numérique comme outil principal afin d’atteindre l’objectif fixé. Un jumeau numérique est un modèle informatique de l’objet réel permettant de réaliser […]
