The discipline of Vibrometery is wide and has many applications, vibrations are present in any mechanical system that involves moving components. So far, the main method to measure these vibrations has been the traditional accelerometer sensor, although it has its limitations and challenges. Laser Doppler Vibrometers (LDV) were developed in order to address some of […]

The goal of the proposed research project is to further our understanding and clinical management of Canadian Forces service members and Veterans suffering from a complex medical triad of traumatic brain injury, chronic pain, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Over half of rehabilitation patients experience one or more of these complex medical conditions, often associated with […]

To ensure the largest impact possible, members of community disability organizations must be involved in the entire process of designing and implementing research. SCI Canada has spearheaded the development of CAIP and FALA, thereby achieving comprehensive input from disability organizations nationwide. Understanding the process of formulating and implementing legislation is a key element for creating […]

Surface waters typically have high levels of natural organic matter. The reaction of this organics with chlorine, which is generally used for disinfection, results in the formation of carcinogenic chlorine disinfection by-products (DBPs). Water treatment plants are obliged to come up with appropriate solutions to meet the set guidelines on maximum acceptable levels for these […]

Many architecture and design firms in Calgary have a strong desire to incorporate parametric software (BIM) and digital manufacturing (CAD-CAM) technologies into their design processes in order to meet evolving client demands, regulatory requirements, and sustainability performance targets. These are necessary criteria that constitute high-quality built environments capable of meeting the needs of multiple stakeholders […]

In order to move towards a sustainable future, it is essential to develop environmentally friendly fuels for energy production. Hydrogen and ammonia are promising candidates for clean fuels as they do not harm the environment when utilized as fuels. Ammonia is one of the leading chemicals produced throughout the world. However, the hydrogen gas required […]

La principale méthode d’entretien des réseaux de distribution d’eau potable (RDEP) est le rinçage unidirectionnel (RUD), qui permet l’élimination des particules sédimentées et la prévention de l’occurrence d’évènements de coloration de l’eau. Nordikeau travaille depuis trois ans au développement et à l’optimisation d’une alternative au RUD : le rinçage avec injection d’air. Cette méthode permet […]

This facility has four fully developed underground brine wells. The brine solution as produced from the brine wells contains 26% sodium chloride in it. This saturated brine is purified and supplied […]

The purpose of this study is to investigate the interactions and effects of automated and electric mining equipment on mine processes, identify necessary modifications to optimize mine design and account for the cost and environmental drivers in the comparison. Ultimately determining the justification for an economic decision to operate automated and electric-powered machinery on mine […]

Accurate network traffic identification would assist network operations and management teams effectively on many different network tasks such as managing bandwidth and ensuring security. The demand for network management methods that optimize network performance and provide quality of service guarantees has increased substantially in recent years. As new social networking and voice over internet protocol […]

This research intends to work towards establishing essential baselines of health status and trends in the Northern Mountain Population (NMP) of woodland caribou in the Skeena region of northwestern British Columbia. We will use scientific data from a guide and outfitter-led sampling program in combination with local ecological knowledge from practicing guides and outfitters in […]

Recreational vehicles operating off the grid rely on battery power to maintain climate control and, by doing so, the occupants’ comfort. Extended battery usage in these vehicle can be achieved by optimizing the thermal-fluid design of the interior space through the judicious selection of insulation material, properly sized HVAC systems, window glazing, and even external […]
