I intend to commercialize a foundation model for forecasting energy production and consumption time series, addressing challenges like renewable integration, storage optimization, and demand-supply balancing. Resources such as HVACs, EVs, ESSs, and solar roofs introduce uncertainty due to temperature sensitivity, price response, and weather variability, making grid management and the transition to smart grids more […]

This project explores the market opportunity for a next-generation intracranial EEG (iEEG) electrode system that integrates optical and oxygenation sensors to enhance brain monitoring in clinical and research settings. The proposed innovation addresses a critical gap in current neurodiagnostic tools by enabling simultaneous acquisition of electrical activity and hemodynamic signals from the brain. This dual-modality […]

The proposed research aims to test the relative merits of the “collaborative and adaptive root cause analysis” (CARCA) technique. Through this technique, the aim is to enhance Health, Safety, and Environment employers’ appreciation of complex events and phenomena associated with operational incidents, contributing to their professional development as joint thinkers. Various incident-based scenarios will be […]

In recent years, many studies have investigated and demonstrated the positive effects of electromagnetic field (EMF) stimulation on fracture healing, pain management, cancer treatment, or neurological disorders. With the increasing number of diabetes patients in the current society, the use of EMF could potentially be used as a new alternative and non-invasive method to treat […]

Landslides are natural hazards, commonly triggered by heavy rainfall, glacier melt, and permafrost degradation. This project explores an emerging fibre-optic sensing technology, Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS), which can enhance our understanding of slope failure processes. DAS transforms fibre-optic cables into thousands of sensors capable of detecting small-scale ground deformation in near-real-time. This project will apply […]

RadiCare Ventures is looking for a summer intern to work on expanding the current Customer Resource Management (CRM) technology and a centralized data collection platform. This may include researching and building out a CRM, aggregating and automating current data collection processes and report generation systems, and also working with management to explore areas of key […]

The only commercially available technology that directly uses thermal energy to produce cooling is absorption chillers, which are not economical for small-medium scale buildings (

This project will support the commercialization of TurnCO2, a clean technology startup developing a low-cost carbon capture system designed specifically for craft and mid-sized breweries. Breweries produce large amounts of CO2 during fermentation, but most of it is released into the air while they continue to buy expensive, externally sourced CO2 for packaging and carbonation. […]

Permeation of CO2 gas through the inner layer in multi-layer fiber reinforced pipes (FRPs) destructively reduces pipe durability. FRPs generally consist of three or more layers of polymer and reinforcing fibers. Gas permeation thorough the polymer layer and its accumulation in reinforcing layer leads to pipe failure during depressurizing cycles. Using clay nano-platelet can lead […]

The ultimate goal of this project is to detect and localize leaks in pipelines in real time. Hifi Engineering has developed distributed fiber optic sensors. Measurements are obtained at evenly spaced intervals along the pipeline (called channels). This project aims to develop data processing tools to improve leak detection and localization. Many events occur along […]
