Truck Safety Survey

Fleetmetrica is a new business startup that offers an innovative and patent-pending technology called SafetyMonitor for monitoring and controlling fleet safety of large commercial vehicles. Fleetmetrica has achieved success with initial fleets, including improved driver habits using their product and are interested in formally quantifying the effectiveness of their technology. Fleetmetrica is also interested in testing their product in conjunction with a fuel efficiency training program called SmartDriver offered by Natural Resources Canada to assess combined benefits of these technologies. The project will include designing the setup of the experiment, counselling the partner on testing guidelines, and analyzing and reporting on the results. It will examine effectiveness of the SafetyMonitor and SmartDriver technologies on fleet safety and fuel consumption. Fleets participating in the testing will be given the opportunity to expand the use of these technologies to the remainder of their fleet following the analysis.

Circular Solutions

An intern will play a key role in conducting research and synthesis for a feasibility study of Circular Solutions, a Food-X led R + D consortium that aims to reduce reliance on single-use packaging in the food industry. Built on a circular economy ethic, the project will develop a business case for returnable packaging across a variety of categories including reverse logistics, material design, software systems and consumer psychology to reduce packaging waste from the food industry.
An intern from the Sauder School of Business will be a vitally important aspect of our team.

South Asian Canadian Legacy Project

The South Asian Canadian Legacy Project, first of its kind in Canada, showcases the valuable contributions of the South Asian Canadians in British Columbia to our economy, history and culture, and responds to community needs for a robust historic Canadian record. Upon completion of this project, communities will have access to new educational supports, exhibits and online resources showcasing the history and contributions of South Asian Canadians in B.C. as part of the government’s commitment to building a welcoming and inclusive province free of racism and hate.
The proposed project presents opportunities for a four-dimensional partnership-The University of the Fraser Valley’s South Asian Studies Institute (SASI), the Abbotsford Community Foundation, local and regional communities and the participating intern. The SASI will be able to collaborate with its institutional and community stakeholders and other networks to promote its work on the South Asian Canadian Digital Archive which will assist in in digitizing new collections and build community awareness around the South Asian Canadian Legacy Project.

Optimisation d’un système électrique distribué de rotor de queue d’hélicoptère à l’aide d’un modèle simplifié

L’objectif de cette recherche est d’étudier et améliorer les performances d’un rotor de queue d’hélicoptère novateur. Le concept à l’étude fait usage de plusieurs hélices fixées sur des moteurs électriques pour générer une poussée. Ce concept se veut intéressant pour plusieurs raisons notamment la réduction des émissions sonores, la réduction de la consommation énergétique et la sécurité des usagers. Pour mener à bien le projet, des simulations de l’écoulement d’air à travers les hélices sont effectuées. Préalablement à l’optimisation du système, les résultats des simulations sont comparés à des résultats expérimentaux pour vérifier leur validité. En plus de s’inscrire dans l’initiative d’électrification des transports du gouvernement du Québec, ce projet bénéficie à Bell Textron Canada Limited en contribuant au développement d’une technologie novatrice pouvant représenter un avantage concurrentiel important.

Development of Electronically Tunable and Fixed Filters for TVWS and 5G Wireless Systems

TV Whitespace (TVWS) designates the inactive or unused space between TV channels actively used in UHF and VHF spectrum :470 MHz to 700 MHz. The TVWS band performs best in the most rural service areas. This is due to the characteristics of TVWS, and how it’s shared with powerful analog TV stations Such TV transmitters can have up to hundreds of kilowatts of transmit power creating strong interference. Due to spectrum sharing with these powerful analog TV stations the reliability of wireless communications in TVWS is affected. Tunable receive channel filters are needed to provide enough rejection to deal with the interfering signals. The purpose of this project is to develop an electronically tunable band-pass filter that can be inserted between the antenna and the receiver of a TVWS system. The industrial sponsor of this project is Redline Communication. The project will provide training to two PhD graduate students.

Timber-based DfMA Façade Components for Factory-in-a-Box(FIAB) based DM technologies

Digital Manufacturing is expensive due to the initial capital costs related to the digitally able machines and robots. This entails that the segment of the construction sector that is rapidly adopting these technologies to meet the productivity and ecological goals of the Construction Sector is largely restricted to large businesses – large Architectural, Engineering and Construction (AEC) firms. More importantly, it entails that the Small Medium Enterprises (SME) are unable / unwilling to participate in the rapidly digitizing economy. This forms the driving motivation behind the proposed research: Timber-based DfMA Façade Components for Factory-in-a-Box (FIAB) based DM technologies adapted to meet the needs of the SME sector in construction.

Predicting demand and inventory shortages for better inventory management in health care institutions

This project aims to predict demand and inventory shortages for better inventory management in health care institutions. This will initially allow for a reduction in the expenses generated by emergency orders placed during a stock shortage. Indeed, it will be possible for the establishment to order a larger quantity of the product from the supplier or to place an order with another supplier. In a second step, placing orders at the right time based on demand forecasting will reduce out-of-stock situations but also optimize the minimum and maximum quantities in inventory.
Better inventory management through greater proactivity indirectly provides peace of mind for the staff and therefore for the patient being cared for.

User Adaptive Systems for Behaviour Change in Health And Wellness

There has been a dramatic increase in digital well-being products in recent years and there is a market saturated with ineffective user experiences and little to no sustainable, desired behavioural change. By assessing and enhancing the effectiveness of a personalized approach to digital well-being app interaction through machine learning and emotion-driven adaptive computing, we can develop a new, intelligent and highly effective digital well-being platform that can support lifestyle wellness behaviour change. We will monitor the user experience using our lifestyle wellness application (the Q-life) to integrate enhanced user experiences for a digital well-being platform (i.e. JackHabbit). This ‘next-generation’ intelligent digital well-being platform will disrupt the currently unstandardized market of digital well-being products and support various health and well-being applications for several user markets.

Complex Gill Disease Initiative

Complex gill disease affects millions of farmed Atlantic salmon on the Pacific coast of North America, each year. This disease results in hundreds of millions of dollaras in lost revenue for the industry, yet there are few tools for early diagnosis of the disease/syndrome and no current treatment/intervention strategies that work to control it. The CGDI project aims at developing tools for early diagnosis and testing of new intervention and management strategies to resolve and control the disease.

Brunel Employment Study

Outsourcing of product research and development has been a growing trend in the pharmaceutical industry over the last decade. Allegorical evidence garnered from interactions with clinical research professionals indicate that employees of outsourced firms tend to have lower job satisfaction, morale, and commitment to their jobs than their counterparts working in innovative pharmaceutical companies. This study aims to examine whether job satisfaction can be correlated with the model of employment in clinical research professionals.
