L’objectif de ce projet est de développer une approche d’intégration de données provenant des nuages de points et des images dans le but d’obtenir un modèle 3D précis, complet et texturé. Le modèle 3D ainsi permet d’effectuer une inspection visuelle immersive à haute résolution et de procéder à des analyses structurelles précises assurant un suivi […]

An increasing number of primary health care clinics have made the transition from paper-based record keeping to computer-based patient information systems, so-called electronic medical record (EMR) systems. One advantage of using EMRs is that data becomes more readily accessible for computerbased analytics in order to inform medical research and investigate compliance to clinical guidelines on […]

Human posture and its relation to health have been studied by researchers in the fields of health, kinesiology and biomechanics. There are some advanced postural screening technologies, but they can only be found in specialized clinics. Bodiometer has developed a non-invasive, user-friendly, and affordable postural screening technology for mobile devices. This project aims to evaluate […]

Bitcoin! Ethereum! Blockchain! In the past year, these words made headline news globally. The promise of blockchain, or decentralized ledger-based technologies, it has electrified the world and created an excitement for technology that was last seen in the 1990s when the internet was entering mainstream. The core premise of the technology is that blockchains are […]

In the proposed project, the intern will do a thorough environmental assessment of different activewear textiles. The methodology used is called life cycle assessment, and allows quantifying various environmental impacts (e.g. climate change, water use, impacts of toxic chemicals) among the entire supply chain (resource extraction, textile and cloth production, transportation, retail, consumer use of […]

The objective of this project is to conduct a feasibility study and build a business case for the design and deployment of an electric energy storage inftrastrucutre from renewable and mostly solar energy sources. The feasibility study will follow a thorough benchmarking and evaluation study of the various existing choices an select the one(s) that […]

Six to eight South Asian-Canadians interested in rock climbing will participate in a day of outdoor rock climbing as a combined research activity and community initiative. Participants will provide feedback from the experience in the form of an on-site focus group discussion. Additionally, a photograph of the event, as a performance art piece, will be […]

Crop losses and the economic impact caused by canola insect pests is substantial, depending on outbreak conditions. With the predicted de-registration of two key insecticides, canola producers are potential subject to greater economic losses. Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs), also known as predatory nematodes, are commercially available biocontrol agents for the management of insect pests. Advancement in […]

Carbon dioxide and methane are two dominant green-house gases responsible for global warming—a topic of major concern nowadays. Efforts are intensifying in both academia and industry all around the world to come up with innovative and cost-effective solutions to combat global warming. One such effort is Carbonova’s technology that transforms carbon dioxide and methane into […]

Post-combustion CO2 capture is widely recognized as the most feasible approach to reduce carbon emissions from fossil fuels as it can easily be retrofitted to existing facilities. The existing aqueous amine absorption technology has shown promising performance but also the challenges associated with the mass transfer, kinetics, and amine degradation persist. The careful engineering of […]

This proposed research will create a modem internal licensing database management system, which will be developed at Side Effects. The main objectives of this applied research are (1) manage customer and license information; (2) ensure the security of the system; (3) test the application efficiently and automatically; (4) generate a useful report based on the […]

This project aims to evaluate environmentally friendly supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction and fractionation processes to obtain essential oils from Canadian hops and mint to better serve the industry and consumers. Using current extraction methods, the yield and purity of the extracts obtained are compromised, as well as its volatility for further use in food, […]
