Sending remittances from Canada: Trends, methods, costs, and economic benefits

I am interested in the phenomenon of immigrants in Canada sending remittances to their home countries. In my research, I would like to investigate cultural and personal reasons for remittances, the institutions used, and the fees charged to users. I also intend to analyze the short- and long-term economic consequences of remittance outflow on the Canadian economy. As of 2023, immigrants in Canada total about 20% of the population with 807 million USD in remittances sent from the country as of 2021. Therefore, this research would be quite helpful in further migration studies and policies, assisting them with up-to-date data analysis and theoretical foundations that can be implemented in practice.

Experimental and modeling approaches to optimize repetitive task analysis in the automotive industry

Despite being a significant predictor of musculoskeletal injury, mitigating muscle fatigue in automotive assembly remains a significant challenge. Administrative controls, such as job rotation and work relief, are often employed
to reduce fatigue exposures, but little guidance is available on their optimal use-cases. The first objective of this project is to evaluate different relief/rotation schedules for several automotive manufacturing tasks using a
mathematical model that predicts muscle fatigue. Additionally, many ergonomics assessment tools rely on accurate measures of force, repetition and effort duration to determine acceptable force limits. However, accurately determining the duration of each effort is more difficult to quantify, but may dramatically influence recommendations when compounded hundreds of time per day. Consequently, the second sub-project aims to develop a library of force durations for common automotive manufacturing manual exertions. These two related sub-projects will produce very applied, real-world solutions for industry looking to mitigate worker muscle fatigue.

Glacial Influence on Groundwater Dynamics: A Case Study in Guelph, Ontario

The proposed project aims to enhance groundwater resource management in previously glaciated areas, focusing on a case study from Guelph, Ontario. Groundwater plays a vital role in various applications, including drinking water and industrial processes, necessitating a deep comprehension of subsurface dynamics. However, creating accurate geological models for groundwater modeling and contaminant remediation remains challenging, especially in regions with variable sediment distributions due to glaciation. This project seeks to address these challenges by leveraging existing datasets to develop a comprehensive geological model for Guelph’s groundwater system. This will involve analyzing the influence of past glacial processes on modern groundwater flow, examining sedimentation patterns, and investigating the relationship between the sediment?bedrock interface and both past and present hydraulics. The resulting model will contribute to more accurate groundwater management strategies, benefiting the City of Guelph as it seeks to optimize its water supply sources and protect water quality. Furthermore, the research’s broader applicability to previously glaciated areas worldwide will advance our understanding of groundwater flow patterns, contaminant migration pathways, and the impact of glacial dynamics on modern water resources. The partner organization, Matrix Solutions Inc., will benefit from improved groundwater modeling accuracy, aiding in their efforts to assess water supply sources, address land use impacts, and protect water quality and quantity for the City of Guelph.

Développement d’une diète pour la production industrielle du virus de la granulose spécifique aux carpocapses (Cydia pomonella)

La larve de carpocapse des pommes et des poires (Cydia pomonella) est l’un des principaux ravageurs des vergers au Canada. La demande pour des traitements alternatifs et durables aux insecticides chimiques est en croissance. BioTepp, une entreprise québécoise, est spécialisé dans la production in vivo d’un biopesticide dont l’agent actif est le virus de la granulose spécifique au carpocapse (CpGv). La diète commerciale présentement utilisée par l’entreprise pour la production du biopesticide représente environ 20 % des coûts de production du biopesticide en plus d’affecter la survie des larves et par conséquent, le rendement de production. Le but de ce projet est de formuler une diète optimisée en termes nutritionnels et de couts, adaptée aux contraintes associées à l’élevage des larves de carpocapses dans l’objectif de produire industriellement le virus CpGV. Ce projet permettra à BioTEPP, entreprise canadienne leader en bioprotection pour le secteur de la pomiculture, de poursuivre sa croissance, élargir ses marchés en supportant le secteur de la pomiculture biologique en croissance rapide ces dernières années.

Empowering Rural Manitoba: Community Broadband Initiatives, Digital Adoption, and Priorities for Digital Transformation.

This research project is about helping rural communities in Manitoba overcome barriers to adopting digital tools, utilizing online services, and accessing information via digital means. These barriers include physical infrastructure, device utilization, and digital literacy. We are working with Selkirk College and ISOC MB, who are already doing a great job in this area. We’ll take a deep dive into their work, understand what’s working well, and where there might be room for improvement. The interns will get to do things such as surveys and interviews, develop a website, and even create a podcast series about the digital journey of these communities. The partner organizations will benefit by getting a clear picture of their current situation and suggestions on how to make their services better. Ultimately, our goal is to help these organizations work together more efficiently and make sure the communities they serve have the best possible digital connections.

Optimisation, développement et validation du SNAD 1.0

L’entreprise Nadeau Design a développé le SNAD, un véhicule urbain qui s’utilise avec des équipements sportifs actuels tel que la planche à roulettes ou le patin à roues alignées pour bénéficier d’une assistance motorisée électrique lors des déplacements. Comme plusieurs éléments du SNAD ont toujours des lacunes sur le plan de l’utilisabilité, ce qui compromet le plaisir à l’utiliser et les chances de succès, le projet vise à valider les différents choix de composantes utilisées sur le(s) prototype(s) actuel, à optimiser le développement formel du SNAD pour en faire un modèle cohérent et fonctionnel, puis de fabriquer un premier prototype de pré-production. La méthode prévoit une analyse fonctionnelle du SNAD actuel et de l’existant, une analyse des scénarios d’usage, l’optimisation du concept à l’aide de maquettes, croquis et rendus 3D, la réalisation d’un prototype optimisé, puis des essais pour le valider. Sur le plan de la recherche méthodologique en design, ce projet s’inscrit dans nos travaux visant à documenter l’activité des concepteurs centrés sur l’utilisateur (UCD’s), plus spécialement dans ce cas-ci, les véhicules récréatifs.
