This project is about a novel chip-based wireless power transfer system. Its integrated and flexible design eliminates the need for power cables for any DC device in homes, offices, parkades and power generating facilities. Unlike existing solutions, the system operates simultaneously with multi electricity requirement devices, has extended range, generates no heat, can transfer power […]

La nouvelle entreprise montréalaise Nüvü Caméras développe, manufacture et commercialise des caméras reconnues comme les plus sensibles au monde. En plus de quadrupler l’efficacité des télescopes en astronomie, la technologie EMCCD (Electron Multiplying Charge Coupled Device) de Nüvü Caméras permet d’augmenter la compréhension scientifique dans des domaines aussi importants que le diagnostic biomédical, la pharmaceutique […]

To meet growing demand, the aquaculture industry is building increasingly larger land-based farms. There are few locations which can provide enough fresh water for their operation and the industry is forced to reduce its water requirements further by modifying recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) to incorporate zero-exchange technology. Cooke Aquaculture Inc. is currently constructing a zero-exchange […]

Dans notre société numérique connectée, l’équipement électronique consomme une quantité importante d’énergie, dont environ la moitié est dédiée au refroidissement essentiel pour le maintien des performances. Le but du projet ‘STREAMS Plus’ est de développer une solution de gestion thermique adaptative pour maintenir la performance des dispositifs et systèmes microélectroniques à leur meilleur, tout en […]

Bicycle and pedestrian counts are important data for the planning and design of safe roads. However, these data need to be inspected for quality, a time-consuming task. Part of this project is to make this project simpler, quicker and more accurate. Installing pedestrian and bicycle counters across an entire city road network is not financially […]

Recycling complex products, typical to aeronautic industry, require a highly enhancement in Canadian engineering knowledge, The project will study the best ways to part-out, dismantle and recycle aircraft and helicopter at the end of their life with the objective of increasing their value by recovering, reusing or recycling subassemblies; parts and material. An experimental platfonn […]

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 […]

Girls with Turner syndrome (TS), a chromosomal condition in which a female has complete or partial absence of the second sex chromosome, present a unique group of patients, with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Since the mid 1900s extensive research has led to advancements in the treatment of Turner syndrome: growth hormone therapy can […]

The proposed project will focus on the development of low-cost, self-consolidating concrete (SCC) mixtures containing a high volume of silica breccia. The workability, fresh properties and local unit cost of SCC containing 0-70% silica breccia (as a partial replacement for cement) will be investigated and compared with the control mixture and with other SCC mixtures […]

Iron and Steel are the backbone of major industrial sectors, like automobile, building and construction, heavy machine manufacturing etc. and Blast Furnace (BF) Ironmaking is the chief production route of iron throughout the world. The objective of this project is to develop novel models for blast furnaces to enhance their productivity in a sustainable way […]

Reactive crystallization is a process commonly used for the production of chemical compounds including pharmaceutical ingredients. In a stirred-tank setup, one reagent solution stream is injected into the reactor where it meets a sitting solution of the other reagent. Reaction occurs as soon as the reagents meet, forming an insoluble product which quickly precipitates in […]

Although the electric guitar has widely been valued as a vehicle for musical expression, many of the efforts that have been carried out to bring the instrument up to date with the era of digital music fail to capture that richness. Attempts at creating interfaces based on the guitar using either sensors or analysis of […]
