“Faster and more efficient construction,” says professor Niel Van Engelen, “and developing new methods for faster production of commercial and residential spaces is a need.”
In collaboration with civil engineering professor, Dr. Somma, at the University of Udine, Dr. Van Engelen, a professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Master’s students Tommaso Dorbolo and Endin Dafota and research associate Hamed Amini Tehrani are testing a new method, which involves concrete-filled steel tubes.
Civil engineering professor Grace Oyeyi works to develop smart, sustainable transportation infrastructure.
Civil engineering student Mariah Saad won an honourable mention for her paper and presentation at the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering Conference held in Niagara Falls, June 5 to 7.
Members of the UWindsor concrete canoe team show off their entry in a national competition.
A lighter design led a team of UWindsor engineering students to success in the Canadian National Concrete Canoe Competition.
Engineering students Shasank Natakam, Katie Sinn, and Valdemar Kochanowski pose with their entry in the 2024 concrete canoe competition.
Civil engineering professor Tirupati Bolisetti and Kwaku Gyau Gyamfi discuss the student’s project on resilience of water supplies in Arctic communities on World Water Day.
The next time you look at the Great Lakes or wonder about Arctic communities, you will think about them a little differently because of the research of engineering students Vrashesh Vipul Karkar and Kwaku Gyau Gyamfi.
Karkar examined the water in Great Lakes Basin watersheds to assess the amount of microplastics that are present in the water. His research focuses on the quantities of microplastics humans are releasing into rivers and the Great Lakes, developing cutting edge modelling tools to quantify the microplastics being released.
Can we repurpose old tires as a buffer to protect buildings from earthquake damage? Professor Niel Van Engelen is leading a project to find out.

Distracted driving is a worldwide problem, says professor Chris Lee, and preventing it is of global importance for improved road safety.
“There has been a startling rise in the number of fatal and seriously injured collisions linked to the widespread use of electronic gadgets in automobiles,” he says.
Dr. Lee, a professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, and Master’s student Larissa Dushime are collaborating with civil engineering professor Nicola Baldo at the University of Udine to compare driver behaviours in Canada and Italy.
