Professor David Sinton is a mechanical engineer. So at first glance it seems odd his lab is full of algae. Sinton’s research has always focused on small-scale plumbing, or fluidics — the movement of fluid at the micro- and nano-scale. Traditional applications have…
High expectations. That’s what Mengqi Wang (ECE 1T3) has for the University of Toronto Supermileage Team in 2014. Wang is co-president of the team, which competed for the first time ever in the Shell Eco-Marathon Challenge held in Houston earlier this month,…
Imagine driving almost 900 kilometres on one litre of gas. A U of T Engineering student team is hoping to do just that at the annual Shell Eco-Marathon Challenge in Houston, Texas in early April. The aptly named University of…
Late in the evenings, after most students have trickled out of the Bahen Centre, U of T’s Supermileage team is just getting started. “I got the tires!” announced Michael Stranges (MechE 1T2 + PEY) as his team members cheered. The team has spent the…
Five U of T Engineering professors from the Department of Mechanical & Industrial Engineering (MIE) have been honoured by the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering (CSME) for their achievements in, and contributions to, the field. Professor Chul B. Park is the 2012…
Mechanical Engineering Professor David Sinton and his research team have developed a process to analyze the behavior of bitumen in reservoirs using a microfluidic chip, a tool commonly associated with the field of medical diagnostics. The process may reduce the cost and…
