Grant: Canada Research Chairs
University of Waterloo
$200,000.00
Advanced Materials Joining and Processing
FY 2023-24
Summary
This Chair program will develop a wide range of novel technologies for joining and
processing advanced materials. These technologies will enable the assembly and
manufacturing of 3D printed nanomaterial devices for water treatment, light-weight
but strong automobile body structures, defect-free aerospace engine parts, highly
reliable implantable pacemakers, and faster nanoelectronic memory chips. This
program will train future generations of engineers and scientists to strengthen
Canada¿s manufacturing competitiveness, and reinforce University of Waterloo¿s
position as a world leader in welding and joining research through its unique
activities in nanojoining and microjoining, and through collaborations with
Canadian and international companies and universities.
