Demand for water and wastewater treatment equipment has grown substantially over the last several years, leading to a significant increase in the market size for technology providers such as Trojan. To maintain the cutting-edge nature and quality of Trojan products, it is essential that the research and testing performed at Trojan match this expansion in […]

The motivation for this research comes from an overall need to improve the performance of high voltage module (HVM) and to reduce the size and its material costs while maintaining its efficient performance, with no partial discharge, arc or thermal issues. In particular, stable transient and steady state performances must be achieved for medical X-generators […]

This project will analyze competencies (knowledge, skill, and attitude) of airside professionals conducting the taxi-ground run of an aircraft in an operational airport environment. Both cognitive task analysis and consensus modeling methodologies will be used to identify competencies and draft a competency framework of the task. Based on the competency framework, training implementations (including those […]

For different software packages created using different tools to interoperate, an intermediate layer called API bindings is needed. These bindings can be created by hand, but that takes time and needs to be updated whenever one of the packages changes. Since these bindings are often quite repetitive, it is reasonable to try and generate them […]

This research aims to develop advanced but practical methodologies for automatic calibration of computationally intensive groundwater simulation models. Such models are largely used in many consulting engineering companies, but they may not be completely calibrated because of the time limits and their very large computational demands. The methodologies developed during this internship increase the computational […]

The objective of this project is to design and fabricate electrically rechargeable zinc-air batteries. These batteries are highly promising due to their ability to store up to double the amount of energy as current commercialized lithium-ion batteries, based on both energy-per-mass and energy-per-volume measurements. This advantage, as well as their low cost and inherent safety, […]

To reduce greenhouse gases, Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) can be an option. This method is being used all around of the world for stopping global warming. The goal is to remove an excess CO2 in the air. My research uses modeling methods, such as HydroGeoSphere (HGS) and Parameter ESTimation (PEST), which will evaluate how […]

The Ubiquitous Health Technology Lab (UbiLab) will explore the development of a data integration framework and recommendation for associated standards that aims at combining data from (1) smart home systems, (2) AAL or IoT for health technology, (3) mHealth, and (4) wearables. Important areas of data management will be explored, as for example security and […]

As technology continues to make smaller and more flexible devices possible manufacturers of these devices need ways to hold them together. Normal methods of bonding two thin pieces of metal together no longer meet all the depends placed on them by the relatively small size of the devices. In order to meet this challenge this […]

Many existing programs encourage young people to move and eat better in order to counteract overweight and obesity trends and reduce chronic diseases. Despite this, rates remain high. This proposal is an evaluation project of Shape Up program which provides training, support and tools for summer camp workers to have a lasting impact on young […]

In the transportation industry customer satisfaction, driver retention and profitability are some of the most critical factors in company success. As regulatory environments change, and competition grows Contrans Corp., a flatbed freight company, is seeking to develop a user-friendly application that allows team members to rapidly and accurately determine an optimal dispatch schedule for the […]
