Acoustic Ornamentality will study the influence that our built environment has on shaping our local soundscapes and the propagation and attenuation of anthropogenic noise pollution. Malta’s vernacular Gallarija and abundance of architecture constructed of limestone, a porous rock, and renaissance and baroque architecture defined by it’s fine ornamentality and craftmanship offer potential greater attenuation of […]

High capacity battery systems are becoming as important as their smaller analogues which are currently in use in mobile devices. Rechargeable lithium-ion battery packs serve as uninterruptible power supplies or energy stores in electronic vehicles (EVs) and realize the EV technology for many countries. This promotes sustainable development while addressing air quality and climate change. […]

This project is to focus on building an application that can be used to perform a audiology-grade calibration of consumer headphones (and microphones) on a mobile device (such as an iPhone or iPad). The intern will use mathematical techniques (such as spectral analysis) to help gather and analyze user information more efficiently in order to […]

This project’s overview for the 4-month period is to – • Improve the City’s processing of development applications efficiently and within required timelines while adhering to the Planning Act. • Develop Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the review, processing, and management of all planning applications and processes, including but not limited to pre-consultation, zoning and […]

The proposed project fosters collaboration between Sabanci University and the University of Waterloo, offering significant benefits to both institutions. Sabanci University will gain access to advanced imaging and gas analysis techniques available at Waterloo, enabling precise characterization and optimization of the CO2 capture system. This enhances the quality and impact of ongoing research at Sabanci. […]

The goal of this project is to develop a class of smart materials known as “Electroactive Liquid Crystal Elastomers” which undergo shape change and exhibit locomotion by an applied electric field. Ferroelectric molecules will be specifically used in the design and synthesis of these materials which are expected to increase the dielectric constant of the […]

This project focuses on creating advanced AI tools to help Aview International expand its platform for global content creators and corporate users. The project will develop a scalable system that can handle large volumes of video and audio editing, an API that allows corporations to integrate Aview’s services into their own platforms with customizable branding, […]

In many parts of the Great Lakes, including southeastern Lake Huron, coastal bluffs are eroding. This poses a significant threat to homes, infrastructure, and the region’s tourism industry. To reduce damage to infrastructure, local conservation authorities create development setbacks to try to prevent new structures from being built in harms way. However, these setbacks are […]

the context of emerging technologies, this project aims to develop a practical management tool that can help technology firms to fully assess new technology value proposition, formulate the risks & opportunities profile, and develop implementation plan.

Quantum advantages designate situations where processing qubits of information solves a task significantly more efficiently than processing classical bits of information in some basic abstract scenario. Our understanding of quantum advantages for distributed computing is limited. In particular, it is not well understood whether quantum information can deal with issues inherent to networks such as […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

The proposed research project will be to visit survey and document post and modern cave dwellings, live in the villages, getting to know the local villagers and craftsmen, and engage in cross-cultural and interdisciplinary research. Through method of record, from measured drawings to statistical analysis, full scale details to test of structural performance or climate […]
