Densification of Heat-Sensitive Protein/Fibre Biomass II

The proposed project with will explore the feasibility of pelletizing heat-sensitive protein and fibre-rich biomass. This animal feed additive is used to improve the digestibility of the diet and improve the performance of poultry and swine. Since densification process involves heat, it is important to investigate whether lowering temperature of the process (pelleting) and reducing the biomass moisture content will form durable pellets by tests using a pilot-scale pelleting unit. After pelleting, the materials will be crumbled to produce coarse particles that are easier to mix with other feed ingredients in a feed ration. Physico-chemical quality of pellets and crumbles will be determined. The optimized variables are identified which will form the recommendation for manufacturing.

Preliminary Design of Distributed Hydroponic Grow Systems in Residential Buildings as a Means of Addressing Market Interest and Food Supply Chain Disruption Due to COVID19

Hydroponics is a farming method that does not require soil, but rather utilizes a porous medium to hold plants so that waste of irrigation solution is minimized. This type of farming is considered more expensive than traditional open-field agriculture. However, it has been found to function well in enclosed spaces with a controlled environment, especially in cold climates where open-field agriculture is challenging. This project aims to assess the feasibility to perform such farming inside of residential units by having all of the necessary equipment, such as the utility elements of a system reservoir, fertigation, and irrigation components, be located with other household utility equipment (e.g. laundry, furnace, central vacuum). Meanwhile, the medium or components for growing, tending, or aesthetics would be located within living areas (e.g. kitchen, foyer, breakfast nook).

Dynamic Deep Generative Graph Models for Financial Forecasting

Borealis AI has access to a huge amount of financial data related to the stock market and is interested in leveraging recent developments in machine learning to better understand this data. Some potential questions emerging from this data are: (1) Given the closing price of a stock in the recent months, can we predict the stock returns within the next month? (2) If a stock crisis occurs, can we predict and control the spread of the crisis? (3) Given the current stock’s history, can we help reduce the risk of investment?. To answer such questions, we propose a network of related stocks based on their correlated returns. Multivariate statistical models that use tabular representations of time series can capture basic correlative structure, but we believe that innovations in machine learning known as Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) will be able to exploit this with more explicit network representation. We propose to develop a novel GNN-based algorithm on network-structured data to efficiently capture its complex structure.

Effet de l’agilité et de l’Industrie 4.0 sur la performance des PME manufacturières au Québec : Étude de cas

Dans le contexte actuel, de plus en plus de nouvelles technologies voient le jour toujours plus rapidement. Les entreprises doivent réagir face à la demande en constante variation, autant au niveau de la quantité qu’au niveau de la conception du produit demandé. L’agilité des petites et moyennes entreprises manufacturières du Québec est mise à rude épreuve alors qu’elle est un élément important pour assurer leur pérennité. L’augmentation de l’agilité réalisée grâce à des outils de l’Industrie 4.0 est certainement bénéfique pour celles-ci. Mais, quels sont les bénéfices de l’augmentation de l’agilité et de ces solutions technologiques sur la rentabilité, la flexibilité et la productivité de ces entreprises? L’utilisation des cellules dynamiques et d’une conception de produit par modules agencée à des technologies connectées entre elles sont des moyens d’augmenter l’agilité d’une entreprise. Les impacts de ces solutions seront mesurés afin de déterminer quels sont les bénéfices de l’augmentation de l’agilité.

Structural and thermal performance of optimum 3D printed parts from continuous carbon fiber-Poly Ether Ether Ketone composites

Additive manufacturing, also called 3D printing, of composites can manufacture final parts with high strength and stiffness. In this project, carbon fiber composites with a high temperature polymer
are used for 3D printing. A custom 3D printing head installed on a robotic arm is used for manufacturing. Specimens are 3D printed to evaluate structural and thermal properties of final parts. Automated manufacturing of composites using robotic 3D printing is efficient for fabricating small-scale parts with low volume and can open new opportunities for composites. In addition, robotic 3D printing can simplify and shorten the research and development activities on raw material optimization for automated manufacturing.

The Adoption of Electronic Personal Health Records and Ontario Healthcare Practice Environments

The Centre is working with a health industry-funded global start-up company in the Health ICT (Information and Communications Technology) Sector to empirically examine innovation adoption during the implementation of the company’s personal health record application into different health systems and practices within Canada. This comprehensive study will enable a detailed examination of the utility and impact of the company’s personal health record application in advancing health professional practice, in actively engaging distinct patient or health consumer populations more directly in managing their own health and wellness, and in strengthening the dynamic of the patient-health provider relationship. With key analyses being performed across distinct health care systems and patient-consumer populations, the findings of this project will create and offer to the global start-up company, and the Health ICT Sector more broadly, the evidence of the processes and factors necessary for the adoption of personal health record applications.

OceansAdvance Business Co-op Student

The Newfoundland and Labrador Ocean Technology sector is comprised of companies, institutions, and organizations dedicated to ocean and marine-related technology, education, training, research and development, promotion, delivery and application. The technology is used to deliver solutions and generate efficiencies through safe and sustainable exploration, development, monitoring and use of ocean resources. Today, women comprise only 2 percent of this global sector. To enable and accelerate Canadian innovation, research and technology development, market and export leadership in the marine and ocean tech sector, it is critical to attract, develop and retain a robust, diverse and inclusive talent pipeline that includes women from every walk of life. The proposed Canadian Women in Ocean Industries Leadership initiative and emerging long-term action plan, will directly address this goal, increasing Canada’s leadership, competitiveness and contribution to ocean industries. It will foster an ocean talent pipeline with women from every walk of life, including equity seeking groups: 2SLGBTQ+ community; Indigenous communities; persons with disabilities; and racialized people, increasing the competitiveness of this industry. This project will help develop a strategy and carry out related actions to achieve this goal.
