The project’s partner, MyPalate Inc., produces real meat without raising whole animals and facilitates a new era of protein consumption.. Using a parallel, gas-controlled bioreactor system, the project aims to understand how process parameters influence oxygenation status during muscle cell proliferation and differentiation. Specifically, we aim to investigate how the dissolved oxygen, impeller agitation speed, […]

Amidst various causes of car accidents, those which result due to unseen vehicles or objects play an important role. Automatic Blind spot detection system is, therefore, one of the solutions which can improve the safety feature of a vehicle. Moovee Innovations, Inc., our partner company, is developing a light-weight vehicle designed to travel at urban […]

Cette enquete a pour but d’explorer le vecu de personnes trans et non binaires qui ont ete hospitalisees dans le systeme de sante quebecois. Les personnes trans sont trop souvent les oubliees de l’acronyme LGBTQ+ en raison de la specificite de leur situation par rapport aux autres membres de la diversite sexuelle et de genre. […]

Carbon dioxide is produced from the combustion of fossil fuels and as a by-product of many chemical processes. The increasing concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere has now been decisively linked to global climate change. The use CO2 as a carbon-building block has attracted much attention due to its low cost, ease availability, and its […]

Avec la mondialisation des marchés et la forte compétition de l’industrie, les entreprises doivent se démarquer par des produits plus personnalisés tout en maintenant des prix abordables. L’utilisation des concepts de la production de masse personnalisée amène plus de complexité pour l’entreprise étant donné le nombre de pièces de plus en plus élevé. La recherche […]

Concevoir, développer et implémenter un système de surveillance On-line (permanent) dédié à la surveillance du comportement dynamique des machines basses vitesses. Une première phase sera allouée à l’étude de faisabilité, l’état de l’art, le choix de l’architecture (matériel et logiciel), et l’implémentation des protocoles de communication, c’est la mise en place de la chaine d’acquisition. […]

The project is designed to reduce the carbon intensity of ethylene production in Alberta. Ethylene is an important building block for the chemical industry to produce plastics, consumer goods, solvents, and paints. Ethylene is predominantly produced by steam cracking, releasing up to 2.7 kg CO2 eq./ kg of polyethylene produced. In Alberta, the production of […]

As the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect people throughout the world, the inherent possibility of SARS- CoV-2 to mutate and evolve into further novel variants and strains of which considerable dangers and public health risks apply remains prevalent. As the world has already witnessed, these new variants carry the potential to be both more […]

This project will help the drilling industry accept new technologies. This work will focus on create and testing more robust controllers for choke control, applying advanced controller techniques and designing these controllers to accommodate diverse operating conditions in different rigs.

The purpose of the research project is to identify the main soil types found within the FortisBC Electric service territory and identify the best alternatives for power pole installations within each soil type. This information will be made readily available to power line designers for use when selecting the foundation alternative during the design process […]

River management aims to balance environmental needs such as habitat against the protection of infrastructure (e.g. roads, pipelines, property) from flooding, erosion, and other geohazards. The ability to effectively navigate this trade-off stems from a fundamental understanding of how rivers function. However, management projects often rely on highly simplified models of river processes (such as […]

Slips, trips, and falls (STFs) are a major concern in occupational environments, accounting for a significant portion of all reported work-related injuries in Newfoundland and Labrador’s offshore petroleum industry. Perturbation-based training has been shown as an effective measure in developing appropriate postural responses for young and older adults. This proposed research aims to address the […]
