ICES is a non-profit organization tasked with housing and conducting research of Ontario’s health administrative data. Data is available on all legal residents of Ontario, Canada most populous province. In addition, these health administrative data are being supplemented with data from other sources, such as maternal and newborn clinical data, newborn screening data, and immigration […]

From cell phones to laptops, from electric vehicles to medical portable devices, from renewable energy storage to emergency backup units, batteries have become an integral part of modern day electronic devices and systems. As batteries get aged, due to repeated charge and discharge cycles, the health of the battery deteriorates. The poor health of a […]

The proposed project is to develop a design tool box with the cooperation R&D team in Transtex Composite, research fellow and academic supervisor. The design toolbox help the engineers in design department of Transtex Composite to design the trailer tail structure based on finite element analysis to be developed by research fellow. Therefore, this package […]

Nature’s ability to convert solar energy to chemical energy in photosynthesis has inspired the development of a host of photoredox systems in efforts to mimic this process. The capacity of fluorine atoms to engender a variety of useful properties in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and performance materials has driven significant research efforts toward the invention of novel […]

Végétamix Inc, commercialise des jus de légumes traités par des hautes pressions (HPP) et désire développer une purée d’ail biologique pour l’ajouter à sa gamme de produits. L’ail transformé est très instable et on doit ajouter des agents de conservateur pour palier à plusieurs problèmes comme la diminution de la valeur nutritive et le changement […]

IL Canada would like to increase their revenue streams through inititating market-based approaches. The organization has struggled to identify appropriate social enterprise opportunities that can be replicated across the country. Examples of social enterprise opportunites for a NFP include: adding fee-for-service consulting; starting a new for-profit company that donates all profits to the organization; and […]

The current study is a part of the project on designing a solution to support decision processes for collaborative Business Intelligence (BI) through the use of dynamic visual histories and linked repositories of collaborative decision-making. The research project includes design investigation of collaborative history tools, specification of requirements for, design and evaluation of visualizations of […]

This project is a collaboration between MMSENSE Technologies and the Centre for Intelligent Antenna and Radio Systems (CIARS) at the University of Waterloo to research, investigate, and design an integrated radar module at millimeter-waves. These sensors, which will be utilized in automotive applications such as forward collision alert, rear traffic crossing alert, blind spot detection, […]

Mesenchymal stromal / “stem” cells (MSCs) are found in adult tissues such as bone marrow and fat and also in neonatal tissues such as the placenta and umbilical cord. Among these sources, Human Umbilical Cord PeriVascular Cells (HUCPVCs) are the richest source of MSCs described. Importantly, they possess immunomodulatory and immuneprivileged properties which enable them […]

Allergic rhinitis is an inflammatory condition of the nasal passages induced after allergen exposure in sensitized individuals. Approximately 20-25% of Canadians suffer from allergic rhinitis, with cat allergy affecting up to 15% of people with allergic rhinitis and/or asthma. Although existing immunotherapies have some effectiveness, these have safety problems and require long-term treatment. A novel […]

The precise prediction of fluid behavior is required in many fields of engineering. Fluid flows are governed by a complex system of continuous partial differential equations (PDEs) which rarely have an exact analytical solution. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has emerged as a leading method of analyzing fluid flows, by numerically solving the respective PDEs. Current […]

When natural pervious lands are replaced by impervious areas due to urbanization, rainfall – runoff processes are altered and in turn have negative impacts on urban water environment. Low Impact Development (LID) technologies such as permeable pavements and bio-retention systems offer a promising solution to urban stormwater management. In order to develop more efficient urban […]
