Overhead Electrical Conductors: Louis Cloutier's legacy

Submitted by Alain Cardou on

I have been asked to give more details on Dr Cloutier's contribution to the field of overhead electrical conductors (power transmission lines) mechanics. I just received the attached document, written by one close colleague of his, Dr. Claude Hardy, who retired from IREQ, Hydro-Quebec research branch. A nice tribute to Louis Cloutier's legacy.
