The milling process is an industrial manufacturing method commonly used for shaping custom parts with precise tolerances using rotary cutters. Rough Milling processes affect the part quality of machined components due to high temperature, large strain, and high strain rate. It is important to identify and improve the milling-induced residual stresses of surface and subsurface […]

As Lowe’s Companies Incorporated expands their organization across Canada they face tough decisions about where to locate new retail stores. These decisions take place at different scales and require choices to be made about what towns or cities would benefit from a new home improvement center and where within these towns or cities the center […]

The Canadian Light Source produces a very bright light which can be used to study DNA, viruses, cells, proteins, and other small-scale structures. To generate this light, the CLS needs a beam of electrons which are generated by an electron gun. In 2018, this electron gun failed, and the facility was unable to function for […]

Most rubber products require curing that involves either sulfur or peroxide curing and other ingredients such as accelerators, antioxidants, antiozonants, and heavy metal oxides. Some of these ingredients, either individually or in combination, generate environmental pollutant and hazardous gases and fumes during rubber processing or storage. Thus, there is a continuous need by the rubber […]

The requirement for online communication continues to grow exponentially, primarily a result of the increased demand for information sharing bandwidth. This demand is driven by video-over-internet applications used for both entertainment, and conferencing (felt most recently in the need for remote working during the COVID-19 pandemic). Integrated optical components fabricated in silicon are receiving particular […]

Newly developed additive manufacturing (AM) techniques, also known as 3D-printing, are able to fabricate complex geometry components at a relatively high deposition rate, the lowest possible number of production cycles, and minimum materials waste in contrast with the conventional subtractive fabrication techniques. By drastic reduction in the fabrication time and production steps, minimizing the on-hold […]

As a Sales & Marketing associate I will be responsible for the following: • Work with CSO to create marketing white papers and presentation • Help and support the sales team with presentation and document preparation • Keeping the CRM up to date • Keeping an active online presence on LinkedIn • Support existing customers […]

Nowadays, the wire arc additive manufacturing is making its path toward providing benefits to aerospace, defense, and oil and gas sectors, ascribed to the process capacity to fabricate components with minimum waste of material and lead time. However, the main challenges associated with the WAAM that have hindered the wide-spread application of the technology include […]

Mass spectrometry is a known for its capacity of detection of sample material with high sensitivity paired with high resolution and accuracy. Developing a “sniffing line” that would provide point-of-measurement capabilities for direct analysis of particulates on various surfaces is a necessary and novel method that will influence the mass spectrometry technique. Referred to as […]

The proposed project mainly focuses on developing an innovative gas/liquid contacting technology that is of critical importance to a wide range of process industries and environmental-management operations. Successful development and implementation of this project are expected to: • Reduce the environmental impact of a variety of operations that are needed to meet human needs and […]

Digital Manufacturing is expensive due to the initial capital costs related to the digitally able machines and robots. This entails that the segment of the construction sector that is rapidly adopting these technologies to meet the productivity and ecological goals of the Construction Sector is largely restricted to large businesses – large Architectural, Engineering and […]

Gallium Nitride (GaN) semiconductors are more and more being used in switching power devices and the GaN transistors are the promising candidate of next-generation power devices that can substitute Silicon (Si) devices. However, this young technology suffers from reliability difficulties. The aim of this research work is to contribute to the understanding of the properties […]
