Accelerating Solar/LED Community Lighting

This project with the nature of business research tends to talk about LED development and variable applications, specifically about solar/LED at the community public lighting, complying with the roadway lighting design code approved by the city of London, ON and relevant professional bodies. The content analysis of main LED suppliers and LED industry, together with evaluating the results of completed pilot LED cases will provide constructive suggestions on the creation of a solar/LED street lighting system for smart communities. The benefit of LED technology and the solar powered LED in street lighting will be fully discussed. One of the biggest benefits, the energy saving with end objective of Net ZERO energy street lighting will be investigated by taking into account the loss of power transmission and the consumption of other relevant electric devices in real application, compared to the existing technology of High Pressure Sodium (HPS) luminaires, which is commonly used in roadway lights. The contribution of my paper is to provide the partner organization a comprehensive view of regulations, market and project development and play a guiding role for its street lighting projects and achieve the pre-defined performance.

Dual Phase Change Material (PCM) Integration and Optimization for Heating and Cooling Seasons

One way to improve the efficiency of a building is to use thermal storage material. A recent thermal storage strategy is to use phase change material (PCM) which allows for the storage and release of thermal energy. One of the main advantages of using PCM over traditional thermal storage (like concrete) is that PCM can achieve the same level of thermal storage as concrete while using less material. Using PCM can also reduce and delay peak load, improve thermal comfort, and reduce the overall energy consumption of a building. This thermal storage can be used to reduce cooling loads in the summer or reduce heating loads in the winter. However, PCM is not a black box, and implementing it will require careful design consideration. Computer simulations will be used to develop methods and design strategies to optimize PCM use in order to minimize operation costs and/or minimize energy load.

Évaluation de propriétés axée sur les données pour le secteur immobilier

Dans la dernière décennie, la forte croissance des prix sur le marché immobilier a captivé l’attention des experts et du public. L’effervescence du marché met beaucoup de pression sur les évaluateurs agrées avec lesquelles les banques sont tenues de faire affaires pour respecter les accords de bâle. Pour pallier aux besoins du marché, une amélioration de la rapidité et de l’efficacité des services d’évaluation immobilière est souhaitable. En bref, le projet vise à améliorer significativement le processus d’évaluation: d’un processus manuel à un processus automatisé qui s’appuie sur les données de manière objective. Optimiser ce processus à l’aide de la science des données requiert l’utilisation de techniques avancées d’intelligence artificielle dans les domaines de l’apprentissage profond, de l’apprentissage par renforcement, de modélisation de signaux à partir de séries temporelles et de vision par ordinateur.

Wildlife Risk Assessment and Response Capacity in the Pacific Northwest

Response to an oil spill involving wildlife can be challenging in the Pacific Northwest. The terrain, weather and remoteness of many locations are all elements to be considered when determining an effective response strategy. A goal of a wildlife response team is to be as prepared as possible when responding to an incident. The animals present at any particular time depend on factors such as migration, breeding, and food abundance. Using existing studies, environmental sensitivity maps and novel research, we will enable the best wildlife response at a given time of year at a given location. The aim is to develop a risk assessment model specific to wildlife and faunal movement on the coast of British Columbia. If it is known what animals and conditions to expect at the location of the spill, wildlife response equipment supplies and personnel can be selected more precisely.

Advanced numerical modeling of electric motors and power electronics components

Whether for climate change reasons or the recent geopolitical situation, the electrification of various sectors of the worldwide economy is taking place at an accelerating rate. The technologies needed for such evolution rely heavily on electric motors and power electronics devices that must offer higher performance while costing less and consuming less electricity. The development of these products is increasingly carried out through simulations that predict the product’s performance before it is built. Predicting such performance requires sophisticated software that can start with the 3-dimensional geometrical model of the product and simulate its electric, thermal and structural behavior in near real-world operating conditions. This project aims at providing such software by adding key capabilities to the partner’s existing commercial solutions.

Investigating the electronic structure of 4d transition metal oxides

Investigation of exotic electronic phenomena is at the forefront of scientific research in quantum materials, one of the key building blocks for the development of quantum technologies and industry. Here, we propose a project that is aimed at discovering and studying new electronic phases brought about from the interplay of various energy scales, coming from electronic correlations, structural elements of the materials, and spin-orbit coupling. We will perform leading research on the electronic structures of quantum materials based on 4d transition metals, focusing on perovskite ruthenates, arguably one of the riches sources of exotic electronic phenomena. During the project, we will also develop and upgrade the Quantum Materials Spectroscopy Centre (QMSC) beamline of the Canadian Light Source (CLS) synchrotron facility which will give the regular users more advanced experimental capabilities, and support users during their experiments at the beamline.

Developing custom piezoelectric phase modulators to enhance the performance of ultrahigh-resolution photonic integrated circuit optical gyroscopes

Modern vehicles demand compact, lightweight, and high performing gyroscopes to accurately track their orientation and motion in real time. Traditional optical gyroscopes based on lasers and fiber optics offer exceptional performance, but are too large, heavy, and expensive for compact vehicles like unmanned drones. Compact, lightweight, and inexpensive micromechanical gyroscopes suitable for cell phones perform too poorly for vehicles like aircraft. OSCPS Motion Sensing Inc. is developing a compact, lightweight, inexpensive, and high performing photonic integrated circuit (PIC) gyroscope. A phase modulator is essential for this PIC gyroscope, to enhance its sensitivity. The traditional thermal approach to phase modulators is slow and energy inefficient. To achieve rapid and energy efficient phase modulation, a custom piezoelectric phase modulator shall be created. Advanced modelling and simulating software will help optimize designs that shall be fabricated and tested. This phase modulator shall be an essential component in OSCPS Motion Sensing Inc.’s PIC gyroscopes.
