We are at the era of precision medicine and dentistry; however, currently there have been no attempts for personalized dental implant design and material selection that take into account variations in individuals’ anatomy, oral microbiome, saliva properties, and mechanical requirements. The overall objective of this MITACS project is to utilize a multidisciplinary approach to explore […]

Today’s data-center network services cover a broad spectrum that evolve rapidly which means that regularly new services need to be deployed in production networks in a timely manner. Using network programmability, a network programmer can write a precise specification of what the network behaviour should be, and this specification is translated by a compiler and […]

Surface waters, such as lakes and rivers, often have high amounts of natural organic matter formed from decaying plants and animals. Drinking water treatment plants that use these water supplies are often faced with removing these compounds due to the unfavorable formation of carcinogenic disinfection by-products during disinfection with chlorine. However, removal of organics can […]

Networks of linear Infrastructure, such as our roads and pipelines, allow us to move people, natural resources, and manufactured goods. Common practice has been to utilise historic climatic data to establish deterministic design guidelines for water course crossings. With climate change uncertainly, asset managers are in a position where they are questioning the guidelines and […]

An electrochromic device alters its optical properties such as tint or colour through a voltage. They are currently used in car rear-view mirrors, smart windows, electrochromic displays and eyewear. Conventional electrochromic devices are built on glass, but future applications such as foldable displays demand mechanically flexible devices. Furthermore, to reduce manufacturing costs, materials that are […]

The proposed research project aims to develop and verify new technologies and numerical tools directed at six main research focus areas: 1. Orebody Knowledge, 2. Grade Management, 3. Cave Mine Design, 4. Integrated Cave-to-Mill, 5. New Measurement Technologies, and 6. Hazard Management. This project will also see the establishment of a multidisciplinary research network, the […]

Sustainability as one of the key elements of Smart cities, can be realized by employing Real Time Control Strategies for city’s infrastructures. Nowadays Stormwater management systems play an important role in mitigating the impacts of urbanization on natural hydrological cycle. Besides, these systems have a huge potential to be managed in such a way that […]

The ‘Mothership’ concept aims to provide a holistic alternative to urban sprawl. A ‘Mothership’ is a large (more expansive than tall) building or cluster of buildings with high residential density plus a mix of others use types. The idea is that this building will encompass all the necessities of a typical suburb into a compact […]

The measurement of concrete electrical resistivity is a very fast method providing reliable information about the pore structure and durability parameters in concrete. This measurement can be related to the setting of concrete. Time of setting when concrete’s workability decreases significantly is an important parameter for concrete production in different climates and construction conditions. This […]

This project is to perform systematic studies to better understand effects of water saturation and foamy oil stability agents on foamy oil flow and the cyclic solvent injection process and provide fundamental parameters for field-scaled prediction. Equilibrium and non-equilibrium PVT tests will be conducted to monitor and analyze the foamy oil performance under effects of […]

The rapid emergence of voice interfaces in our everyday devices has driven the need to develop audio systems that are robust to noisy environments. Traditionally, arrays of pressure based microphones are used to listen into a specific sound and block out the surrounding noise. However, this comes at a tradeoff of increased size and decreased […]

Emerging as a targeted, safe and efficient pharmacotherapy is the approach of theranostics, which focuses on patient-centered care. It is a combination of diagnosis and therapeutics and provides a cost-effective specific successful treatment protocol. The aim of this research would be to take all the knowledge that has been gathered during the previous 2 years […]
