Electrovestibulography (EVestG) is a novel neural diagnostic tool to identify various neurological disorders. The signal amplitude of interest in EVestG recordings is in the sub ?V range; therefore EVestG demands a very low noise signal acquisition protocol. The proposed research is to design, develop and validate an artificial ear-canal that simulates the electrical noise conditions […]

This project aims to develop a retail demand forecasting model that can both handle the long-term and short-term forecasting, and adjust its parameters as more data come in. General long-term prediction models are relatively precise because the context often remains same over time, but can not quickly adapt to unforeseen events, like the global pandemics. […]

Poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are groups of contaminants that have received much attention due to their frequent detection in the environment and potential adverse health effect on humans and animals. PFASs can be removed from water using adsorption processes. Adsorbent produced by pyrolysis of sewage sludge (SBAC) offers a promising sustainable solution for removing […]

Biomass wHh little or no commercial value Is often produced as by-products from sawmills and commercial agricultural activity. The use of this biomass for energy generation can offset the need forfosall fuels thereby contributing to reductions In Green House Gas (GHG) emissions. However for biomass to substitute fuels such as natural gas, It needs to […]

Combined heat and power generation (CHP) is an efficient method of recovering waste heat of flue gas in internal combustion engines. CHP using natural gas (NG CHP) is actually a NG power generator combined with a waste heat recovery (WHR) system. The by-product heat from the electricity generation is captured by passing the high temperature […]

Drones popularity has been rapidly increasing for a wide class of applications including commercial delivery, photography, fire-fighting and environmental monitoring due to their low cost and high commercial availability as unmanned aerial vehicles. In the light of this growth, anti-drone technology has become a significant research topic of investigation due to unauthorized flying of drones […]

This research project is related to the development of innovative solutions to enhance thermal performance of self-contained DM systems. The project will be carried out in collaboration with Van der Graaf Inc. (VDG), which is a Canadian company located in Brampton, Ontario. A long-term plan has been developed by the applicant and the industrial partner. […]

This research aims to thoroughly evaluate a new revolutionary generation of advanced cementitious materials: CNF-UHPFRC. It is composed of several phases that target to assess this competitive material at several levels and optimize it. One of its important and distinctive aspects is to tailor its constituents, correspondingly price, for each specific application, while maintaining the […]

The Gulo Gulo project objective is to improve the navigation algorithm utilized by the onboard motion sensors of AV/CVs to achieve positioning accuracy of less than 1% of the distance travelled with standalone INS solutions. The standalone solution will be aided with visions sensors (camera, LIDAR and RADAR) in addition to integrated system fusion with […]

With the growth in demand for electric vehicles and mobile devices powered by rechargeable lithium batteries, demand for lithium is expected to increase by over 200% in the next decade. Current lithium production comes primarily from Australia, South America and China. There are significant lithium reserves in the same Saskatchewan aquifers currently being exploited for […]

Video endoscopy is the main diagnostic and screening method for cancer screening in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Currently, the endoscopic video is not sufficiently documented, which makes reviewing of these videos difficult. The research team will partner with the company to develop an audio/video recording technology to combine physician voice annotation of the video during […]

PolyCSAM is a new industrial-scale cold spray additive manufacturing (CSAM) facility created by Polycontrols to address production and industrialization challenges. It serves as a demonstrator and an innovation/development platform. A recent strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis revealed that the supply chain is solid and diversified for all key components, with the exception of […]
