Wrist fractures are the most common injury treated in the emergency department. The current standard for treating these fractures is realigning the bones and applying plaster or fiberglass cast to maintain position. Most often, plaster casts are used as the primary option and the patient gets a fiberglass cast after the initial few weeks. Although […]

Les procédés de fabrication additive telle la fusion laser sur lit de poudre connait un intérêt croissant dans la communauté industrielle et universitaire, car ils permettent de réduire les temps de production, de produire moins de déchets et permettent la fabrication de pièces plus complexes sans augmenter les couts. Toutefois, ce procédé est moins bien […]

Additive Manufacturing (AM) is seeing continued industrial uptake, with the aerospace sector representing one of the early adopters and largest growth areas. The design freedom offered by AM is being leveraged to develop advanced heat exchangers with highly complex internal features. This project will focus on laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) of AlSi10Mg, with emphasis […]

This research project will be focused on the development of a new software technology in order to model and map maximum solar energy potential on the rooftops and facades of buildings with high spatiotemporal resolution, with particular emphasis on optimal community design for smart net-zero energy solar communities. The goal of this project is to […]

A disturbing number of aggregate pop-out cases have recently been observed in newly poured concrete throughout the City of Saskatoon. A “pop-out” is a small, often cone-shaped void in a horizontal concrete surface left after a near-surface aggregate particle has fractured. Aggregate pop-outs can accelerate the deterioration of concrete sidewalks and can result in safety […]

Global warming is a leading threat to humanity. Carbon capture, especially direct air capture (DAC), is the key to its reversal. The bottleneck of the DAC expansion is its high cost vs. the insufficient value of CO2. On the other hand, Atlantic Canada has unmet natural gas demand, especially after the termination of Sable and […]

Considerable growth in the global population and economy leads to an increase in fuel demand. This requires production of clean fuels with minimum CO2 emissions to maintain climate, energy, political, and social security. Hydrogen is a promising carbon-free fuel that can be produced from various renewable sources such as wind and biological systems. The microalgal […]

La robotique collaborative offre de nouvelles possibilités d’automatisation particulièrement intéressantes pour exécuter des protocoles complexes de biologie moléculaire en utilisant des instruments conventionnels en laboratoire. Ceci permet d’automatiser des protocoles impossibles ou difficiles à l’aide de plateformes robotiques habituellement employées en sciences biologiques, en utilisant plutôt un bras robotique UR3 offrant une liberté de mouvement […]

Presently, tunicates pose a serious challenge for the mussel aquaculture industry in PEI and Atlantic Provinces, which leads to a dramatic increase in the cost of production for both growers and processors. Although tunicate can be applied as the feedstock for the preparation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), an abundant amount of protein-rich liquid stream is […]

The last twenty years have seen whirlwind advancement in production of metallic parts via additive manufacturing (AM). This technology has surpassed its origins in manufacturing titanium parts; additive manufacturing is now applicable to a vast range of alloys, including stainless steels. The principal advantage of constructing parts layer by layer is to afford the capacity […]
