A few weeks ago, MASc student, Thiruni Thirimanne presented at the Latornell Convservation Symposium. Take a look at how amazing this is!!!
Title: Assessing Erosion Risk in Urban Watersheds: A Stream Power-Based Approach with SPINpy 1
Abstract: Managing the increasing erosion risk in urban watersheds and mitigating its adverse effects on infrastructure and river systems necessitates a watershed-scale approach. Stream power, or the rate of energy expenditure of flowing water per unit length, is related to river erosion, channel instability and morphologic change.
Congratulations to MASc candidate Saida Rezaee who was awarded an American Concrete Institute (ACI) Foundation Fellowship (https://lnkd.in/g5vZpgZ2), which provides funds to attend two ACI conferences and a $10,000 USD educational stipend. The ACI Foundation supports students’ education, research, and innovation throughout the concrete industry to contribute to keeping the industry at the forefront of technological advances in material composition, design, and construction.
Tyler is a 3rd year PhD candidate in Civil & Environmental Engineering at the University of Waterloo. His research focuses on the development of mass timber composites panels for use in the long span applications necessary in large wood structures. The aim of his research is to develop fundamental knowledge of mass timber composites through experimental tests, and to develop analytical and numerical tools capable of predicting their strength and stiffness.
