Additive Manufacturing is a rapidly growing technology in the gas turbine industry. Its numerous advantages allow for the design of complex shapes which have not been possible in the past, using conventional manufacturing method. The parts could be manufactured on demand, with reduce cost and lead time. Selective Laser Melting is the common method to […]

Natural health products have become integral to many personal routines and the Canadian economy as a $9 billion industry. But recent problems within China and India, which currently have a stranglehold on raw materials, are endangering the health of this growing sector. Replacing foreign sources with traditional batch production means is foolish since domestic labor […]

NEXFID est une start-up de biotechnologie qui compte produire et commercialiser les protéines et acides gras de haute qualité provenant de l’élevage d’insectes tout en valorisant les déchets organiques. La farine et l’huile d’insecte sont des alternatives durables et écologiques au soja et à la farine de poisson. La production se situera dans une dynamique […]

Despite the numerous benefits of participating in child and youth sport, they not guaranteed. Purposeful efforts must be made to ensure that sport offerings are age appropriate, promote engagement and enjoyment, and involve quality social relationships. This project represents a partnership with the objective of implementing and evaluating a story-based positive youth development (PYD) program—The […]

TAMVOES is a personal health record (PHR) software platform that seeks to help better manage an individual’s health by empowering them to collect and securely store copies of their health history, allergies, vitals and appointments online. They have an opportunity to increase their customer base by extending their platform to hospitals and large clinics, especially […]

In the Canadian boreal forest region habitat fragmentation due to linear disturbances (roads, seismic explora-tion, pipelines, and energy transmission corridors) is a leading cause for the decline of wood-land caribou (Rangifer tarandus) – boreal population; and as a result, a deep understanding of linear disturbances (amount, spatial distribution, dynamics) has become a research and forest […]

Traditionnellement, les dispositifs employés pour chauffer individuellement à l’électricité les pièces sont conçus à base de métal, lamelles ou spirales, où l’ont fait circuler un courant afin de les chauffer. Pour assurer un chauffage adéquat au plus fort de l’hiver nord-américain, les plinthes chauffantes doivent avoir un volume minimal de métal, ce qui résulte en […]

Geospatial data (e.g. location of the business branches, fleet of online delivery vehicles) is a crucial part of online marketplaces, as their developers need easy-to-integrate tools that efficiently perform searches across said data. This project will explore novel approaches to improve state-of-the-art searches for objects with geospatial attributes. In this project, interns will develop computer […]

Le tourisme a souvent été proposé comme stratégie de développement du territoire. La difficulté d’accès aux destinations périphériques en raison de leurs distances face aux grands centres leur vaut une image négative. Pourtant, l’éloignement des grands centres peut aussi être un avantage. Sur le plan touristique, la périphérie accentuée peut même constituer un élément d’intérêt, […]

Older adults living with frailty recover less quickly following minor illnesses and are more likely to be hospitalized or die. Therefore, it is of importance to identify strategies to prevent or treat frailty. In Canada, there is currently no available multi-component interventions addressing frailty in long-term care settings. This project will evaluate the effectiveness of […]
