Access to clean and safe water resources is crucial for the progress and economic development of Alberta, Canada. Ensuring sustainable groundwater use can be a viable solution to address the regional scarcity of sufficient amounts of high-quality freshwater, particularly in certain areas of Southern Alberta where there is a moratorium on new surface water licenses. […]

In bridges, the deck slab or panels are usually connected to the supporting girders using various types of shear connector like bent bars or threaded rods which make the interfaces significantly congested. For reducing this congestion, bridge contractors normally use steel shear studs. The proposed new research is exploring the use of double-headed fiber-reinforced polymer […]

NuVista Energy (“NuVista”) intends to develop a commercial scale demonstration of a multi-purpose hydrogen hub with blending for gas-fired turbines and future transportation fueling leveraging the novel Pulse Methane Pyrolysis (PMP) technology to significantly reduce GHG emissions related to fuel gas consumption. The demonstration project will be located at our Wembley gas plant cogeneration facility […]

Vision accounts for approximately 80% of human sensory perception. Visual information processing starts in the retina of the eye, where images are detected and encoded. Retinal cells send and receive signals through chemical synapses (using neurotransmitters) or electrical synapses (using the direct passage of ions through gap junctions). Certain retinal cell types are known to […]

The boreal zone of Alberta is fragmented by more than 1 million km of petroleum-exploration corridors. Known as seismic lines, these seemingly innocuous ~2-10m wide clearings influence a host of ecosystem processes and have been implicated in the decline of Threatened woodland caribou. With millions of dollars slated for future restoration programs designed to aid […]

In seventeenth-century England, a person’s degree of political power and community standing were determined, to a surprising degree, by the amount of land that they held, but the legal mechanisms that reinforced this system became destabilized during the period of 1640 to 1690. Parliamentary reforms, radical activism, colonialism, and an increasingly commercialized land market disrupted […]

This research focuses on making big tree-planting project better. In this project, special cameras are going to be used on planting machines to check if young trees are standing up straight when planted. This helps workers know right away if a tree isn’t planted correctly. The cameras use smart technology to quickly analyze how the […]

Wosler’s mission is to “To improve accessibility and reliability of high-quality healthcare for all”. In order to achieve this we must be able to provide high quality imaging services to those in rural and remote areas. The ability to transmit high quality ultrasound images to a remote computer is an integral step for the development […]

The Big Bang is predicted to have produced equal amounts of matter and antimatter; however, the universe is dominated by matter and there is much less of its counterpart. The ALPHA (Antihydrogen Laser PHysics Apparatus) collaboration, based out of CERN, investigates the matter-antimatter asymmetry problem by creating and performing experiments on antihydrogen to compare it […]

Quantum information processing is a game changer for information technology: currently information is representable as strings of binary digits, or bits, and logical processing is performed according to the principles of boolean algebra. Quantum mechanics allows us to work with superpositions of states and perform quantum logic, which preserves the coherence vital for quantum information […]
