Wind turbine drive-train condition monitoring

As well as being green, wind energy is one of the cheapest ways of generating electricity and it is currently the most common generating technology for new installations in Canada. Wind farm owners, however, are finding that key turbine components, such as the generators and gearboxes, can fail long before the 20 year lifetime that is normally assumed. This project will develop methods to use the outcomes of monitoring those components to develop techniques to improve the detection of component faults and allow better and cheaper scheduling of maintenance. The project combines the skills developed at the University of Calgary in analyzing vibration signals with the operational experience and data provided by the 10 MW wind farm at the Wind Energy Institute of Canada.

Évaluation de la performance du système de traitement des eaux usées “ELAPS/EVC” dans l’élimination de la toxicité de produits organiques persistants

La densification des populations, l’agriculture intensive et l’expansion des zones industrielles posent d’importants défis techniques quand au maintient de l’intégrité des habitats aquatiques mondiaux. Ces différents domaines d’activités entraînent l’accumulation de contaminants dits “d’intérêt émergeant”. Ceux-ci incluent entre autre des produits pharmaceutiques et de soins personnels, des pesticides et autres produits organiques persistants. Ces produits présentent un risque non-négligeable pour la santé humaine et des écosystèmes. Le but général de ce projet est de documenter le processus de décontamination du système de traitement des effluents municipaux et industriels, mis au point par la compagnie Northern Watertek Corporation: ELAPS. Le premier objectif est de mesurer les effets toxicologiques chroniques des contaminants sélectionnés avant et après leur traitement avec l’ELAPS. TO BE CONT’D

Development of “Winter Condition” Operational Performance Functions (OPFs) for Ontario Highway and Freeway Road Segments for Ministry of Transportation Ontario

Many real-world industries depend on the safe and efficient functioning of transportation systems, facilities and infrastructures. One of the main concerns for such industries is vehicle accidents. The Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) currently uses very basic models to determine the operational performance functions (OPFs) for all highways. The drawback of the current models is that they do not account for changes in environment factors, such as adverse weather, which is abundant during winter months in Canada. Such environmental factors are important since the effects of rapidly changing winter weather conditions can have a significant impact on driving conditions. The main objective of this project is to develop a set of winter OPFs for highways in Ontario. The development of winter OPFs will provide a tool for the assessment of safety performance of highway infrastructures under adverse weather condition, and will allow for the identification of highway segments …

Electrical Design for Acuva Arrow systems

The Acuva Technologies Inc. has designed and developed UV LED-based water purification machines. These machines are in their optimization stage for cost, complexity, and manufacturing time reduction. Adding some features such as graphical user interface, wireless connectivity and being self-powered increase the public popularity of these machines. Graphical LCD provides much more user-friendly interface by which the user has more control over the machine operation. Using PV solar cells to power the device when it is not easily accessible provides versatility to the machine. Wireless connectivity, whish is a common way of communication, provides remote monitoring, control and data storage. Having access to academic potentials and researchers to effectively optimize the design will strengthen the company at its early stage.

Salivary insulin profiles throughout the day in healthy humans

The hormone insulin rises in the blood after consuming food. Too high of an insulin response may be a sign of dysfunctional metabolism and has also been shown to promote weight gain. Thus, if insulin levels rise too high after a meal it may indicate that someone is metabolically unhealthy or is prone to obesity. Currently insulin is only measured in research studies using blood samples and costly, time consuming measurement techniques. This project aims to determine if saliva can be used to measure insulin in order to allow for non-invasive insulin measurement.

High-fidelity robotic simulation framework for artificially intelligent medical robot

There is a great need and benefit to integrate artificial intelligence, robotic simulation, and robotics technology into Canada’s medical industry, hospital environment, and healthcare system. Robotic simulation technology, which has been successfully used for space rover missions such as NASA’s Curiosity rover and the Mars Pathfinder and Sojourner mission, provides the ability to create and test different types of robots with different hardware configurations, and develop their associated artificial intelligence systems. This project will develop a novel highly-accurate simulation framework specifically for medical applications in order to help realize and create real-world artificially intelligent medical robots. The project being proposed will use special algorithms and technology to advance the current state of robotic simulation research to new levels of detail, accuracy, and fidelity which ultimately will improve the healthcare of Canadians.

Conception d’oreilles artificielles dédiées à l’étude de l’atténuation et l’effet d’occlusion d’un bouchon d’oreille à partir d’images IRM

Au Québec, environ 360 000 travailleurs sont exposés quotidiennement à des niveaux de bruit susceptibles d’engendrer des problèmes d’audition. Les bouchons d’oreilles individuels sont souvent utilisés pour pallier ce problème. Cependant, l’inconfort lié à l’utilisation de ces protecteurs limite leur durée d’utilisation et donc leur efficacité. L’objectif de ce projet est de concevoir des outils capables d’évaluer cet inconfort. Des calculs assistés par ordinateur et des oreilles artificielles construites à partir d’images IRM d’une oreille réelle permettront d’estimer les principales caractéristiques influençant ce confort comme par exemple l’atténuation des bouchons d’oreille ou encore le frottement qu’ils exercent sur les parois du conduit auditif. Cette étude permettra à terme d’améliorer l’efficacité des protections auditives.

Proximity detection using Bluetooth-enabled devices for mobile-based authentication

Mobile-based authentication is a strong authentication method as the password-based authentication is no longer adequate. Mobile-based authentication authenticates users based on proximity awareness to their Bluetooth-enabled devices and immediately locks the secure services (e.g., personal computers) when the users leave the vicinity with their devices. By exchanging the beacon signals and measuring the received Bluetooth power, we can detect the user movement. Nevertheless, developing proximity-aware applications is challenging due to the fluctuating Bluetooth signals. In this project, we aim to develop an energy efficient, reliable, and accurate proximity detection mechanism for Bluetooth-enabled devices. We will also prototype the mechanism and validate its performance through extensive experiments. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first mechanism that can achieve the reliability and accuracy required for secure authentication purposes.
