Unconventional oil and gas resources are currently a significant portion of global oil and gas production and it is anticipated to continue its growth as production from conventional resources decline. Unconventional oil and gas resources include low permeability (“tight” resources e.g. shale), heavy oil and oil sands reservoirs amongst others. Economic and responsible development of […]

Low impact development (LID) technologies are increasingly part of the urban landscape for Canadian municipalities. Bioretention planters, also known as rain gardens, are an LID technology that infiltrates and filters runoff at the source. Though design guidance exists, there is little data available on the long term performance of LID technologies, such as bioretention systems. […]

High frequency millimeter-waves are quickly becoming essential for many industrial and commercial applications including high resolution automotive radar and high-speed wireless communication systems. While millimeterwaves offer many benefits, they also introduce new engineering challenges, due to the smaller wavelengths and dielectric properties of materials at high frequencies. One of the primary challenges relates to the […]

In automatic casting applications, the aim is to accurately recognise facial regions that correspond to a same actor appearing in a movie to produce described video. In particular, this project will focus on challenging tasks of capturing and modeling the facial trajectory for each person appearing in a movie in order to predict when/where the […]

There is a growing demand to conserve energy at the load side using smart lighting systems in the buildings, warehouses, and other facilities. In a smart lighting system each of the electrical devices is regarded as a wireless node capable of communicating with other nodes through an available wireless technology. The proposed R&D activity targets […]

The objective of the proposed project is to evaluate the use of additive manufacturing technology for the fabrication of wind-tunnel model parts featuring static pressure channels. The long-term aim of this research to devise an innovative manufacturing process that reduces the cost and lead time required to fabricate aerodynamic wind-tunnel models. The suggested methodology is […]

Automated physiotherapy motion tracking system may improve clinical outcomes by providing subjective measures and continuous monitoring. A study into different metrics that PTs may find useful for diagnosis and a user interface study assessing the current usability of the Automated Rehabilitation System, a system being developed by Cardon rehabilitation, will be conducted. A method to […]

Les étangs aérés facultatifs (ÉAF) représentent 67% des 811 stations d’épuration québécoises. Plusieurs de ces stations doivent être mise à niveau pour augmenter leur capacité de traitement ou respecter les nouvelles normes de rejet en matière organique et non toxicité aiguë. Des guides sont disponibles pour la conception des ÉAF mais ils ont besoin d’être […]
