Mirshahidi, @ProfGolovin et al. from @UBCOSOE published "A high throughput tensile ice adhesion measurement system". This easy-to-build instrument allows the precise measurement of #ice adhesion strength in tension, an essential feature in surface #design. doi.org/10.1016/j.ohx.…

New research is changing the way aircraft and wind turbine operators are addressing the risks related to ice build-up.

It was an honour to join a #UBC roundtable today with PM @JustinTrudeau and @JoyceMurray to share our work with @PRELabsInc to develop Canada's next-generation face shields!

Top outdoor and athletic brand, @Arcteryx, looks to @UBCOSOE to further innovations. New research creates sustainable and non-toxic replacement for traditional water-repellent chemistry. Learn more at news.ok.ubc.ca/2020/08/10/ubc…

@salthorne @nnp_bc @canadanurses @ubcappscience @ubcengineering @UBCNursing Hi Sally. The OPERA Lab makes these types of coatings over at UBC Okanagan. How can we help? apsc-golovin.sites.olt.ubc.ca

Who knows of (or can invent) a good anti-fogging solution for glasses, goggles, visors when wearing a tight fitting mask? Nurses and other health care professionals would love to know. @nnp_bc @canadanurses @ubcappscience @ubcengineering @UBCNursing

.@ubcosoe partners with Boeing to test new anti-ice coating technology. Learn more kelownacapnews.com/news/ubco-part…

New funding enables researchers @UBCOSOE and partner institutions to synthesize, fabricate, and test advanced fabrics and materials that combine intelligent, moisture-wicking materials with ballistic-resistant properties. Latest coverage at bc.ctvnews.ca/ubc-okanagan-a…

UBCO confirming its commitments to the TRC. An amazing event to experience!
