Different types of the interconnected suspension systems have been suggested, designed and demonstrated. Although the ample work has been done in the area of interconnected suspension, the work for overcoming or satisfying practical limitations and commercialization of the suspension considering all the space and size constraints is not sufficient. The proposed research work involves In-Lab […]

Counting coins, with speed and accuracy, has been a challenging issue for banks and stores. People used to count coins manually before the arrival of coin counting machines. The process of counting coins manually is a very time consuming and tedious job. Moreover, mistakes are likely to occur due to various reasons such as fatigue, […]

Envenio is a Canadian company that specializes in advanced analysis of fluid dynamics and fluid structure interaction in the technological and environment settings. Envenio is also a software development company that owns an advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics solver, EXN/Aero, that uses many core technology in the parallel computation of unsteady and fully turbulent flows. Envenio […]

The Personal Lift Assistive Device (PLAD) is an “on-body” ergonomic aid comprised of: 1) a springbox to assist workers’ back muscles; 2) padded cables to tension the springs at the shoulders and feet; and, 3) apelvic spacer to provide improved leverage. In all previous tests, the PLAD has reduced back forcerequirements by ~ 20% during […]

Linear Induction Motors (LIMs) are used in a significant portion of existing rail transport systems, and Bombardier Transport Canada Inc. is a global leader in the industry. LIMs will be ever more important in the future with the expansion of Maglevs globally. In this project, the intern will explore the mathematical models used in designing […]

Cryogenic engines, such as the Dearman engine, produce work and substantial cooling with zero emissions at the point of use, due to their liquid nitrogen ‘fuel’ supply. Background work has shown that technically, (power, turn down ratio, responsiveness, torque), there are few identifiable factors that would prevent this type of engine from being very effective […]

Globally, brain-related diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and Epilepsy have a huge toll on patients, loved ones, and healthcare systems. The research project aims to establish a model to better diagnose neurodegenerative diseases. There is a wealth of clinical test data, symptoms, and observations associated with the long list of neurodegenerative diseases. In order to […]

Au Canada, les résidus forestiers constituent une biomasse renouvelable, pratiquement non utilisée et abondante, qui peut être transformée en biocarburants. La valorisation de cette ressource permettrait ainsi de diminuer les émissions de gaz à effet de serre et notre dépendance aux énergies fossiles, particulièrement dans le secteur des transports. L’établissement en Haute-Mauricie d’une bioraffinerie industrielle […]

Bigmotion Inc. was created to develop wearable health monitoring sensors and service the ‘at-home’ care segment of the elder care market. This project involves studying of existing literature and development of novel solutions for power management and energy harvesting for the product including tracking and fall detection systems using hybridpower. Analysis of proper control approaches […]

Autonomous vehicles process the data received from their sensors to recognize the road and the obstacles in their perception module, and determine the desired route via the decision making module. Then, in the path planning module, they plan a path so that the vehicle follows the route while it observes the rules, avoids obstacles, and […]

L’imagerie cone beam CT (CBCT) prend une place de plus en plus importante dans l’exploration des structures osseuses du complexe dento-maxillo-facial. Cette modalité d’imagerie, moins irradiante que l’imagerie par tomodensitométrie conventionnelle (TDM), procure des images de qualité similaire, voire supérieure, à celle des images TDM. Toutefois, les rapports Signal/Bruit ne sont pas assez élevés, et […]
