Solar energy is one of the best sources of environmentally friendly reliable energy. Metamaterials is one of the subjects of nanotechnology, which applies scientific and engineering principles to make and utilize very small things— things at the nanometer scale, where unique phenomena enable novel applications. How to improve the efficiency and reduce the cost of […]

Project is to import ten year’s of historical data on news events, public sentiment metrics and the price movement of S&P 500 related equities for study and analysis through the latest Data Mining and Machine Learning techniques. The goal is to uncover correlation and causality between events and price movement of global markets in multiple […]

Surgical adhesions can form after many kinds of surgery, and affect millions of patients every year, hindering healing and causing pain and infertility. ARC Medical Devices has shown that treating a surgical site with fucoidan, a polysaccharide extracted from some types of seaweed, greatly reduces surgical adhesions in animals, but a source of pure fucoidan […]

Prior research has shown that rolling muscles can increase flexibility without performance decreases. These studies have used a variety of rolling pressures (intensities). It is not known whether higher or lower rolling pressures are better for improving flexibility. Thus one of the studies will examine different pressures of rolling on flexibility and muscle performance. On […]

The proposed research will allow us to determine how the human central nervous system (i.e. brain and spinal cord) functions to produce different intensities of muscle contractions with and without fatigue. We will use a variety of stimulation technics to determine how active the brain and spinal cord are during the arm contractions. We do […]

A Way Home Ottawa (AWHO) is a community-based initiative to end and prevent youth homelessness in the Ottawa region. In 2016 Carleton researchers Justin Langille and Dr. Kennelly worked with AWHO to ask youth and adult service providers what improvements need to be made to the existing system to ensure youth always have access to […]

Le projet de recherche du Cercle Lab Vivant vise à proposer une alternative aux modalités d’interactions entre les personnes afin de renforcer l’engagement du public du Cercle. Dans cette optique, le Cercle Lab Vivant souhaite mettre en oeuvre un dispositif pour l’interaction collective non-verbale. Les étudiants travailleront à l’élaboration d’un prototype intégrant ces nouvelles modalités […]

The goal of this project is to develop management targets for grassland songbirds on native rangelands in western Saskatchewan. This research will identify grassland conditions required by priority species and examine how these differ between species and throughout prairie regions with very different soil and moisture conditions. Because native rangelands that are used for forage […]

We propose a novel approach that will provide researchers with an improved method to study multiple molecules, simultaneously in the same tissue section. Our strategy is to use novel nanoparticles that each emit unique multispectral signature and can be used simultaneously. We aim to develop a novel method to detect 15 breast cancer and immunotherapy-related […]

According to “Standard on Automated Valuation Models (AVMs)”, an automated valuation model (AVM) is a mathematically based computer software program that produces an estimate of market value based on market analysis of location, market conditions, and real estate characteristics from information that was previously and separately collected. The purpose of an AVM is to provide […]

Software failure may result in substantial damage, especially to human life and financial loss. High-quality software is recognized as a product that has been specified correctly, and that meets its expected specifications. It is important that the quality characteristics be specified, measured and evaluated. In this internship, the primary objective is to create the software […]

With a rise in talent and the number of youths participating in athletics, Canada has a seemingly bright future in track and field at the international level. With the abundance of talent, it is important to improve the resources available to our competitors to continue promoting excellence. We propose to study two novel protocols which […]
