Soil acidity in Alberta and northeastern British Columbia has been recognized as a problem since the early 1960’s. With the current application of N fertilizers, this problem has persisted making it unsustainable to maintain high crop yields in the long term. This project hypothesizes that the one-time application of lime to increase soil pH will […]

Le Lubrium est un polymère synthétique mimant l’activité d’une glycoprotéine naturelle, la lubricine (protéoglycan-4), qui est présente à différents endroits du corps humain, notamment à la surface des cartilages des articulations. En effet, l’arthrose est une pathologie très handicapante ayant un développement progressif avec des prévalences respectives de 20% (7 millions de cas) et 26% […]

Traditionnellement, les dispositifs employés pour chauffer individuellement à l’électricité les pièces sont conçus à base de métal, lamelles ou spirales, où l’ont fait circuler un courant afin de les chauffer. Pour assurer un chauffage adéquat au plus fort de l’hiver nord-américain, les plinthes chauffantes doivent avoir un volume minimal de métal, ce qui résulte en […]

L’intérêt de la recherche réside dans le fait qu’une entreprise comme Certex envoie à l’enfouissement entre 750 et 1000 tonnes de rebuts de textile annuellement. Les auteurs Stall–Meadows et al. (2012) affirment que près de 100% de ce type de rebuts pourrait être recyclé.13 L’objet de cette étude consiste à évaluer les perspectives de défibrer […]
