The objective of this project is to connect architects and wind engineers early on within a project so that affects associated with wind such as pedestrian comfort and building strength may be maintained from the start of a project. Rather than making post-construction modifications to a building through the costly use of screens, covers or […]

The goal of the proposed research project is to perform an in-depth analysis of shape memory alloys through thermal and mechanical testing. This analysis will be used to develop new mathematical models to better predict the performance of the shape memory alloys after they have undergone a manufacturing process that is unique to the partner […]

In the airline industry, crew planning is an essential task that every airline will face. Flight crew expenses constitute the second largest operating cost (Kohl and Karisch. 2004), second only to the rising cost of fuel. Crew planning refers to the assignment of flight segments to pilots and flight attendants so that they start and […]

SD will be undertaking a large development project for new sunless tanning products. This will involve the formulation, sample preparation, brand approval, assay method development, and stability testing of 15 products. An expertise in chemistry, formulation, and cosmetics would allow for SD to develop these products for sale in the North American market in the […]

As a result of climate change and other pressures that result in “extreme events” like wildfire and flooding, many drinking water utilities are at risk of potentially catastrophic failure and need treatment adaptation strategies to prepare for increasingly variable and potentially rapid deterioration in source water quality. Currently there are no recognized tools for evaluating […]

PopIn is a mobile platform that helps people discover and connect with others at live events and local venues. Whether someone is at a networking mixer, tech meetup, or community event, PopIn shows who’s around, what they’re up for, and who wants to meet — making real-world connections easier and more inclusive. This internship will […]

Oilseeds and grains are considered to be excellent sources of non-animal proteins containing the appropriate essential amino acids required for optimal human health. Conventional protein production methods involve the use of solvents, concentrated acids and alkali that result in protein denaturation, thereby reducing the quality and functionality of the protein ingredients. The proposed project will […]

Vapor cell technology is the backbone of a wide range of atomic sensors. This project aims to improve the functionality of vapor cells for Rydberg atom radio frequency detection. The main goal of the work is to test vapor cells whose interior walls are coated with materials that passivate the surfaces so as to eliminate […]

Developing quantum-enhanced LiDAR requires a deep understanding of the water medium’s optical properties, which vary with environmental factors. To address this, an oceanic model was created to estimate system performance based on water’s scattering and absorption traits, though it currently simplifies these as identical. In the proposed project, this will be refined. System analysis is […]

Biocovers are earthen structures built into landfills and other industrial facilities to collect and degrade greenhouse gas emissions from the site. They are widely considered one of the most effective ways to combat methane. In order to assess the performance of those biocovers, operators have to attend to the biocover regularly and use a flux […]

This project aims to help Rogers Communications bring real-world AI and Generative AI solutions to life across Business units like Customer Care, Network, HR, Rogers Business. A team of eight interns from the University of Waterloo will work with Roger’s Data & AI Strategy team to turn identified promising use cases into working solutions. Their […]
