Concentrating Photovoltaic (CPV) systems use low-cost lenses or mirrors to concentrate sunlight onto the highest efficiency solar cells. They typically use 0.1% of the expensive materials used in traditional solar panels and achieve double the efficiency. As a result, CPV has emerged as a viable option for large-scale, low-carbon, electricity generation in sunny locations and […]

This research project aims to evaluate whether members of minority groups or women face higher barriers to access credit in the small and medium-sized enterprises credit market. The intern will analyze loan-level data provided by the business partner to evaluate whether these biases are detectable in the portfolio of SME loans of the business partner. […]

This project is aiming at the development of flywheel-based energy storage platform as integrated with power grid substation that will ensure sustainable and safe operation during normal and emergency conditions. It provides reduced operational costs with reduced GHG emissions in energy infrastructures. The design of a resilient energy storage platform is developed to be integrated […]

The first part of this project involves the development of an internal credit rating model. Credit ratings, such as those provided by credit rating agencies like S&P and Moody’s, are an important tool that measure the credit risk associated with different companies. However, as the markets expand there are an increasing number of companies where […]

Project NOVA will build on the University of Ottawa and Ciena’s advanced analytics capabilities to allow networks around the world to understand where video flows run over their network. This will allow the network operators to improve video Qualify of Experience for their end customers, more quickly and cost effectively fix video impacting network problems, […]

In this joint collaboration with BNS, we will develop a behavioural risk model to predict the likelihood of future risk of breaking the promise to pay debt for customers who only hold deposit products with BNS. The model will be utilized to support business operations such as credit card and loan pre-approvals. That is to […]

Hot rolling is one of the most significant processes during modern steel production. Complex metallurgical phenomena could take place during and after the application of high pressure and temperature, which largely affect the product properties. A simulation or model that could predict these microscopic events real time is extremely beneficial in the production. Therefore, the […]

Besides sport activities, active wear has found its way into people’s routine life because of its fashionable appearance and comfort. Active workwear is also preferred for some jobs with strenuous activities, like operators working in factories or construction fields. Each of these environments has its own list of hazards, such as fire, chemical spills, or […]

Il est possible avec des techniques spécialisées de rendre des cerveaux de souris transparents permettant ainsi de les analyser pour mieux comprendre leur fonctionnement. Toutefois, ces méthodes demeurent en développement et il est très difficile de perfectionner ces techniques rapidement. Le projet consiste à développer un microscope ayant une vision très large permettant ainsi de […]

Molecular profiles of tumour samples have been widely and successfully used for classification problems. Many algorithms have been proposed to predict classes of tumor samples based on expression profiles. However, prediction of response to cancer treatment has proved to be more challenging and novel approaches with improved generalizability are still highly needed. Recent studies have […]

This project is aimed for an accurate and highly convenient methodology to visually investigate the multiphase flow behavior, foamy oil stability and solvent mass transfer in solvent injection processes. Therefore, a novel real-time direct visualization methodology, focusing on the study of foamy oil equilibrium and non-equilibrium PVT phase behavior and stability in bulk and porous […]

Micro-scale particles composed of high-voltage spinel LNMO (LiNi1-xMnxO4) will be characterized using electron microscopy techniques. These particles are stabilized through the inclusion of coating materials. The methods to prepare these particle coatings consisted of either an in-situ or post-synthetic method. The interface between the particle and the coating will be characterized at the atomic-scale by […]
