Piezoresistive strain sensors respond to a mechanically induced deformation with a change in their electrical resistance. Large strain flexible strain sensors have been adopted for numerous applications including rehabilitation, health and sport performance monitoring as well as physiology and kinesiology applications. Although development of these flexible strain sensors has reached a level of maturity, design […]

The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC) is a contributing member of the National DNA Data Bank Committee, which provides an annual report related to the operations regulating the National DNA Data Bank (NDDB). The NDDB holds genetic samples of individuals and is searched during the course of a criminal investigation when genetic […]

The scope of this research is to develop new equations for the load distributions beneath timber mats from a crawler crane, for various types of soil, by using numerical software. This would enable industrials to accurately estimate the behavior of stresses in soils, in order to reduce the costs of ground preparation for cranes by […]

Nuera has been acquiring customers and data for the past 3 years and is launching an internal initiative to mine the data to find insurance claims trends. The objective of this initiative will consist of analysis and reporting on our data sets to find trends that lead to claims frequency and severity, in an effort […]

La relation entre les variables météorologiques et la santé humaine, bien qu’abondamment étudiée, demeure difficile à préciser. Au Québec, les seuils d’alerte initialement développés pour la chaleur et mortalité toutes causes, doivent être adaptés pour d’autres impacts sanitaires spécifiques pouvant être liés à des phénomènes météorologiques comme le froid extrême, le verglas, ou encore les […]

Corner Brook Port Corporation (CBPC) and the Summerside Port Corporation, Inc. (SPCI) are exploring the opportunity to ship grains from Prince Edward Island to Western Newfoundland. First discussions between the two ports indicate that there this may be a viable business opportunity for both entities. The Port of Summerside is currently shipping grains from producers […]

Overall this study aims to determine feasibility, parameters, and processes related to improved utilization of selected byproducts resulting from Corner Brook Pulp and Paper Limited (CBPPL) operations. The proposed activities and ideas relate to monitoring and understanding the nature of the composition of the mill’s production of wood ash over time, determining the suitability, feasibility […]
