Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are a form of new dosage form for delivering drugs, including anticancer agents and vaccines. A highly controlled production system is needed to produce high quality LNPs, and the existing production systems suffer from a few drawbacks, such as lack of variable control and automated functions. Dionamix will employ their technologies and […]

Les portes palières sont des portes automatiques situées le long des quais des stations de métro et qui séparent physiquement le quai des voitures du train. Les portes palières sont de plus en plus intégrées directement en amont de la conception des nouvelles stations de métro, ou alors elles sont rétrofitées pour pouvoir s’adapter aux […]

Combustion-generated particles called ‘soot’ are the second worst contributor to climate change and are carcinogenic to humans. The formation of soot in combustion devices, however, remains poorly understood. It is therefore essential to gain a better fundamental understanding of soot formation to help reduce soot emissions and mitigate its negative effects on humans and the […]

With the availability of low-cost edge devices equipped with color and depth sensors, such as iPhone or iPad, 3D data capturing is becoming more accessible and convenient. Asset managers and building owners seek benefiting from this potential to accurately and automatically create 3D indoor models of buildings. In particular, having 3D indoor models containing objects […]

This research is motivated by the need to coordinate matching and pricing decisions in resource sharing platforms. In general, matching decisions can be seen from different standpoints of shippers, carriers, and the platform. We are particularly interested in investigating the matching problem considering all standpoints simultaneously, which has not received much attention in the literature […]

Today, a growing number of mobile devices come enabled with Near Field Communications (NFC) “out-of-the-box.” This has opened the door to an explosion of new possibilities for smartphones, such as those running on the Andriod platform. These new NFC capable Android devices could potentially replace RFID technologies, which are widely used in a variety of […]

In the process of issuing building permit, urban planners need to check the compliance of proposed development with all required rules, policies, and land-use regulations (e.g., 2D and 3D) of the city mostly by using 2D graphical representations. In this internship, we will assess the value added of having 3D digital representation of land-use regulation […]

VueReal is currently developing LED technology that requires transfer of devices during fabrication to other sites. However, these devices are fragile. During the transfer process, an unacceptably large number of devices are damaged due to failures in their suspension systems. This reduces the fabrication yield and therefore increases production cost. It is not obvious whether […]

Sustainability continues to be one the most critical issues of the 21st Century. Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) are a popular research topics as academia looks to promote sustainability within industry. Small to mid-sized Engineering Procurement and Construction (EPC) firms in Canada remain outside the capable bounds of the expensive and complex tools and consultation required […]

A novel medical device for the treatment of heart arrythmia is designed and built by the partner organization. The medical device must go under certain electrical safety tests in the final inspection. These tests are currently conducted manually by the operators. This stage is a major bottleneck in the production line. On the other hand, […]

Ce projet permettra de gérer la forte demande énergétique sur le réseau électrique grâce à l’utilisation de technologies de stockage énergétique dont les accumulateurs thermiques et le stockage à air comprimé. De façon plus spécifique, le projet a pour objectif de développer un outil de design pour l’implantation efficiente des accumulateurs thermiques et de tracer […]

The measurement of O2 consumption (V ?O2, V ?O2 max) and CO2 production (V ?CO2) is important in the health assessment. The goal of this research is to develop inexpensive optical technologies adapted from off-the-shelf components to reduce the cost and improve the performance of metabolic analyzers. VO2 Master, which is our sole partner organization, […]
