The main objective of this project is to a) investigate feasibility and suitability of a new proposed DC-DC converter based on a novel “Dual Input Clamp Unidir DC-DC Converter”, and b) validate and quantify its projected benefits including reduced parts count, higher efficiency, lighter weight and more reliable as compared to existing commercial products. Cost-effective, […]

Electronic assemblies are used to control various systems in an aircraft. Under normal operating conditions, these assemblies undergo vibration, and therefore have an expected life span. Different designs are analyzed to reduce production cost, and these designs have to ensure that the electronic components contained within the hardware can tolerate the same operating conditions without […]

Structural and vibration analysis is performed on a proposed design change on electronic assembly to ensure that it meets customer requirements and is a more cost-effective design. Such design change should be cost efficient. The important aspect, in addition to the design, is interacting with different engineers at different positions in the company. Working with […]

Thermal analysis is performed on a proposed design change on electronic assembly to ensure that it meets customer requirements (temperature ranges) and is a more cost-effective design. Such design change should be cost efficient. The important aspect, in addition to the design, is interacting with different engineers at different positions in the company. Working with […]

Project will see the calibration and characterization of a next-generation spectrometer for advancing both atmospheric research and the Canadian space community by providing instruments for atmospheric research for UAVs and nanosatellites. Calibrating these spectrometers will give the science community a new way to monitor atmospheric gases such as greenhouse gas or pipeline leaks with the […]
