AI-driven approach for the cyber defence of additive manufacturing management system

Additive manufacturing is rapidly employing the Internet of Things and cyber-physical systems to facilitate its reliability and relieve human supervision. However, with 5G network and cloud computing intertwining with the physical machines placed locally, the service is vulnerable to prospective cyberattacks. Various researchers have already stressed the urgent need to ensure the users’ and businesses’ […]

Developing Customizable and Affordable Medical Simulation Solutions by Facilitating the Transfer of Research Driven Products into the Simulation Market.

The goal of the proposed research project is to design and develop an application called 3DCrowdGo that uses crowdsourcing to fill the COVID-19-induced gap in health professions simulation training via community-based 3D printing. Since COVID-19 has pushed simulation labs to be held virtually, learners are in need of affordable and portable simulators. 3DCrowdGo will connect […]

Autonomous Micro-Cell Multilevel Inverter for Utility Scale PV Farms

The proposed product “autonomous three-phase micro-cell multilevel inverter” comes to offer scalable and “plug and power-up” solution for both large scale photovoltaic PV farms and small-scale residential installations. These three phase micro-cells can be scaled in any direction (parallel or series) to increase output power or voltage. Furthermore, each micro-cell is small light weighted dc-ac […]

Design, Development, and Testing of a Solar/PV-Grid-integrated EV Charger/Converter for a Pick-up Truck Tonneau

Worksport has recently launched TerraVis®, a photovoltaic (PV), folding tonneau cover, that stores solar energy into a bed-mounted Lithium batteries. The solar tonneau cover will incorporate high-efficiency monocrystalline solar panels whose cells are modular, so any dead ones can be swapped out. A battery bank installed in the bed will house modular Li-ion batteries that […]

An Integrated Energy Management Tools and Life Cycle Assessment for Wastewater Treatment Facilities

The Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) represent the largest energy user in Canada. The WWTP’s energy demand is expected to increase due to population’s growing. Approximately 850,000 people die each year from diarrhoea related to unsafe drinking water. In order to increase the quality of the drinking water standards, more energy consumption will be required which […]

Development of a Drive-through Climate Tunnel for Autonomous Vehicle Development

A climatic chamber can replicate the weather conditions for an entire year, which allows tests to be performed faster, in weeks instead of years and thereby speeding up the product development circle. In traditional climatic wind tunnels, the test vehicles are usually strapped to the floor, and there is no relative motion, with the associated […]

Upper limb exoskeleton performance during fatiguing overhead work tasks

Overhead work is the leading cause of shoulder fatigue and presents a large financial burden to employees and employers alike due to workplace injuries. Interventions must be implemented to reduce the onset of shoulder fatigue and injury. Two interventions are currently being used, overhead cycle time and passive upper-limb exoskeletons. However, little research has been […]

Intelligent Energy Management for Production Facilities with Robotics Automation [IEMPRA]

This project shows the possibility of decreasing the power consumption of Industrial robotics. Design methodology for Intelligent Energy Management for Production Facilities with Robotics Automation [IEMPRA] is proposed to Cherkam, by predicting the energy consumption over the energy model, which delivers a guide to enable energy-efficient approaches. The total energy consumption is evaluated using ML […]
