Sustainability Framework for Junior Mining Companies

This project seeks to develop a sustainability framework for junior Canadian mining
companies that identifies and reconciles core sustainability obligations in the mining sector.
The scope of this framework will include governance, transparency, health and safety,
environmental performance, climate mitigation, project financing and engagement with
communities. The project will help to determine which standards, practices and processes
should be adopted to improve their sustainability performance. This framework will help this
company to reduce risk and will help to bolster their sustainability performance and
reputation. It is our hope that the project will resonate with other juniors and mid-tier
companies in the mining sector and thus also transfer these benefits to these firms, raising
the sustainability performance of the industry as a whole.

Development of a UV-LED based surface disinfection system

Respiratory droplets of pathogens, such as SARS-CoV-2 in the current COVID-19 pandemic, spread not only from person to person via direct contact, but also indirectly via contaminated frequently touched surfaces. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is known as the gold standard of disinfection technology, where the DNA of microorganism are damaged by high energy UV photons. The traditional method to produce UV radiation is using medium-pressure or low-pressure mercury lamps, which are bulky, high energy consuming, and not environmentally friendly. An emerging method to produce UV rays is based on semiconductors which is the method utilized in ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV-LEDs). These new sources of radiation have a smaller footprint and instant on-off capability, which make them suitable to be used in many disinfection applications. The goal of this project is to develop an unprecedented UV-LED based disinfection device which can be utilized for the disinfection of various frequently touched surfaces, such as doorknobs and door handles, as one of the most common sources for virus transmission through surface. The system developed in this work can be installed on most of the surfaces to kill harmful pathogens, such as SARS-CoV-2.

Multi-chip Integration of Lasers and Silicon Photonics

In the era of big data, internet of things and cloud computing, the ever-increasing demand for bandwidth density causes a bottleneck in inter and intra-datacenter communication systems. Optical integrated circuits based on the silicon-on-insulator platform is a well-known solution to overcome the bottleneck in data rate transmission. It is an interesting platform as it can be fabricated through existing CMOS technologies and the high index-contrast between core and cladding helps realize compact, and low loss structures. However, in silicon alone, the realization of on-chip, reliable, laser sources are not yet possible. By using various packaging hybrid methods, we integrate lasers made with other materials onto silicon photonics to realize on-chip light sources. We then characterize these chips in terms of coupling-loss and reliability. The company will benefit from the diversification of capability for laser-SiP attach and coupling.

An updated nutrient budget for the Lake of the Woods and options for management

The Lake of the Woods (LOW) is a large transboundary lake that frequently experiences toxic algal blooms that are caused by excessive nutrient inputs to the lake from its watershed. The objective of this research is to quantify nutrient delivery to the LOW from atmospheric deposition and rivers draining the Canadian portion of the basin and use this information to guide management efforts.

Design Analytics and Design Reporting Tools

Design data is broadened beyond specifying built-environments to support evidence-based decision-making in the early phases of design. For using data, designers usually rely on specialized data visualizations. There is a need for interfaces specifically tailored for reporting designs with their form and performance data to and for seeking feedback from the other stakeholders who are not directly involved in design. Given their diversity and complexity of the design data, such interfaces are hard to develop. This project aims to identify, develop, and validate practical key features of data analytics interfaces for sharing design alternatives with the design stakeholders to support online group decision-making. These interfaces will become part of a platform for data-driven design exploration. This combines the fields of visual analytics and design, which we call design analytics. Using Design-through-Research with use-case driven software development methods, the project will demonstrate use of design analytics in group decision-making in design workflow.

The Impact of Sustained Time in Human Care on the Migratory Behaviour of the Endangered Loggerhead Shrike

Our research will assess the degree to which variation in migratory behavior in Loggerhead Shrike is altered due to sustained periods of captivity. Information will be obtained from a captive population of Loggerhead Shrike. Behaviour of captive birds will be recorded on video cameras and analyzed to determine the level of migratoriness displayed by differently aged birds. The pedigree (i.e. relatedness) of each bird will be used for analyses of heritability of migratory behaviour. By working within a species, our experimental design will control for differences in dispersal ability inherent among species.

Rethinking Housing Market Financing in the Aftermath of COV?D-19: Lessons from and Responses to the Pandemic

As Covid-19 Pandemic shows that we are surrounded by global unforeseen risks. Housing and housing financing are significant parts of people’s life and global crises may always put people’s right to housing in danger. For this very reason, it is a necessity to look for alternative financing models for housing as affordability would decrease the potential risks that people may face in the cases of global crises. Therefore, this project aims at working on alternative financing models in order to find the most proper and the best models for creating affordable housing systems. As housing becomes affordable the society will be resilient against potential global risks.

Long-Term efficiency of horizontal closed-loop geothermal systems for seasonal freeze-back stabilization of permafrost

Wastewater treatment lagoons are practical and cost-effective systems for smaller towns across Canada to prevent wastewater seepage into the environment. Essentially all structures over permafrost that disrupt the natural winter temperatures contacting the ground surface initiates permafrost thawing over the long-term and this includes lagoons.KGS Group has been developing the concept of using conventional closed-loop geothermal systems within the sediments below the base of lagoon to allow a refrigerated solution to be circulated to freeze the soil below the lagoon. A wastewater treatment lagoon system was designed and monitored by KGS Group in northern Yukon.
This research aims to evaluate the long-term efficiency of the horizontal closed-loop geothermal freeze-back concept proposed by KGS Group. For this purpose, a 3D finite element simulation will be developed to simulate different involved physics including 1) the porous media and its physical characteristics such as dimensions and porosity; 2) heat transfer problem in porous media; 3) pore water phase change to model thawing permafrost and seasonal freezing and thawing at the ground surface; 4) fluid flow through the porous media; and 5) pipe flow and heat exchange through its walls.

Developing state-of-the-art examination system for home inspectors in British Columbia

While buying a property, a professional home inspection is one of the single-most important “checks” the buyer should conduct to make sure that the home is safe and secure to live in. In order to enhance public safety and confidence, the home inspector should possess sufficient knowledge, skill and ability to perform the inspection competently. Canadian Association of Home and Property Inspectors (British Columbia) (CAHPI (BC)) has a non web-based examination system to certify the home inspectors which is not third party accredited. CAHPI (BC) has strived since its inception 21 years ago to develop ever higher standards for their examination and to have an examination program with the highest confidence level to safeguard the validity and reliability of the examination system to assess candidate’s knowledge, skills and analytical abilities which is one of the major criteria for third party accreditation.
