Increasing industrial interest in biobased polymers to replace traditional plastics is on the rise. Bio- sourced alternatives still experience challenges that require resolution prior to their being able to fit into existing infrastructure and replace petroleum plastics in the market. This project will address the processability of a lignocellulosic thermoplastic to facilitate injection molding.

This project is primarily focused on virtualizing wireless access network so that multiple operators can share the same physical resources while being able to stay isolated from each other. The basic idea is to allow wireless access points from different operators form a single virtual access point that efficiently manages its available resources. The goal […]

The proposed research aims to find the optimal application rates of liquid chemicals which are applied to a road surface before and during a snow storm. These chemicals are used to accelerate the melting of snow and ice. The effects of various factors such as traffic, pavement temperature and other environmental factors on the performance […]

Le stage proposé d’une durée de 4 mois a pour objectif d’aider notre entreprise à maximiser l’exploitation de ses données, en particulier celles concernant les différents entrepôts canadiens. Les missions principales du stagiaire se diviseront en deux catégories : la réalisation de modèles de données et des tâches stratégiques. Dans la première catégorie, le stagiaire […]

The proposed project focuses on demonstrating the impact of high-resolution strength measurement of samples from a copper porphyry deposit using the Minpraxis Tester (MPT), which was developed to revolutionize the characterisation of rock masses and improve the likelihood that mines perform as planned. The MPT provides a degree of rock characterisation that is unequalled by […]

Boron nitride nanotube (BNNT), a structural analog of carbon nanotube, has emerged as a key-enabling material in various fields of extreme/major science thanks to its transformative properties such as high oxidation resistance, high specific mechanical strength, piezoelectricity, and high neutron shielding capability. To harness its unique properties, it is essential to fabricate macroscopic BNNT articles […]

This project is a collaboration between Korea’s Soongsil University NDT Lab and Canada’s Waterloo University Computer Vision for Smart Structure Lab (CViSS), aiming to promote new research at each institute and build smart construction and infrastructure monitoring. NDT Lab focuses on developing non-destructive engineering technologies for concrete internal crack width, reinforcing bar diameter and internal […]

Intelligent health-conscious battery management system (BMS) and advanced battery thermal management systems (BTMS) are essential to improve performance of energy utilization, safety, and cycle-life. Improvement in the energetic performance on all these levels encourages integration and development within the full thermal installation. This project will look at Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML)-based intelligent state estimators […]

In Canada, the transportation sector accounts for 25% of all emissions. Hydrogen fueled vehicles is one option that has a great potential to reduce Canadian and global CO2 fuel emissions. This research project investigates production parameters that influence hydrogen storage capacity in storage materials in order to optimize the production process and increase the hydrogen […]

The project will support technology innovation for an assistive device to treat plantar fasciitis and achilles tendinopthy more quickly and easily. Affecting more than 15% of the general population, these indications have significant affect on health and wellbeing including occupational, physical and mental health. Recovery is lengthy, re-occurance is common and treatment is not standarized. […]

AWL-Électricité travaille actuellement au développement d’un chargeur sans fil dans le domaine de la mobilité en utilisant une technologie de couplage capacitif résonant. Dans le but de manufacturer est d’amener un premier produit sur le marché, AWL-E cherche à développer un BMS avec un système de communication intégré, sois un système de gestion d’une batterie […]

Le projet de recherche entrepris par l’étudiant durant son déplacement au Canada visera à produire des nanocomposites cellulosiques pour le champ d’application diélectrique par impression 3D sur une durée prévue de 4 mois. Ce projet vise à répondre à trois questions scientifiques : 1-Évaluer l’imprimabilité 3D de nanocomposites à base de nanocellulose dans une matrice […]
