Feasibility study to determine the applicability of using reclaimed and remanufactured lumber in mass timber (CLT)

Finger-jointed lumber made from reclaimed and recycled lumber cut-offs/waste will be manufactured and used to produce mass timber panels (i.e., cross-laminated timber (CLT)). The mechanical properties of these panels will then be measured. The project therefore consists of two phases. The first one will focus on assessing the mechanical properties of the finger-jointed lumber made […]

Advancing the Cryptanalysis of the HPPK-THR Public Key Cryptosystem

The Homomorphic Polynomial Public Key over Two Hidden Rings (HPPK-THR) is a new method of encryption developed by Quantropi to secure communications against advances in quantum computing. While highly efficient and comparing excellently against rival encryption schemes HPPK-THR was only recently developed in 2022. It thus still needs thorough investigation to show its strong security […]
