In this project, we will be investigating ways of improving the quality of rendered fluids for films. Fluid simulation is an important component in modern films, and we will be building a better fluid simulator capable of simulating more delicate fluid effects (such as water pouring into a glass), as opposed to the larger, more […]

L’interaction entre les sulfures contenus dans les rejets miniers, l’eau et l’oxygène peut mener à la formation du phénomène du drainage minier acide (DMA) si le potentiel de neutralisation de ces rejets est insuffisant pour contrer l’acidité produite. Le DMA est caractérisé par une acidité élevée et des concentrations en métaux importantes. Il existe plusieurs […]

Depuis plusieurs décennies, les États concluent des accords régionaux de libre-échange afin de faire tomber les barrières au commerce. L’Organisation mondiale du commerce reconnaît et encourage ces accords en raison de leur capacité à faire croître davantage la libéralisation des échanges. Ces Accords font pour la plupart intervenir deux ou trois États limitrophes qui acceptent […]

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 […]
