This project is focusing on the development of RCP coursewares for adjustable speed drive (ASD) systems with the OP8666 module. The OP8666 RCP module will be used to implement, test, and validate the control algorithms in real-time before being connected in the real-world ASD systems. Two ASD courseware module families have been agreed for the […]

Flex Travel Solutions is preparing to launch its Machine Learning Module to enhance its BRE tool through predictive analysis. The objective of the project is to provide its clients a sales forecasting predictive model within the BRE to facilitate their business strategies and decisions.

Hydrogen fuel cells (HFCs) are clean and efficient energy conversion devices that produce electricity from green hydrogen with zero carbon emissions. Currently, the catalyst layers in HFCs are composed of Pt-decorated carbon powders mixed with an ion conducting polymer (ionomer), leading to uncontrolled distribution of each phase and significant tortuosity due to the complex pores […]

En assurance commerciale, il est important de pouvoir comprendre l’industrie dans laquelle opère une entreprise afin de bien identifier les risques auxquels l’entreprise est exposée. À cette fin, l’approche traditionnelle consiste à assigner à chaque entreprise un code d’industrie. Cependant, cette assignation est problématique car la plupart des classifications d’industrie comptent des centaines et souvent […]

Marine icing problems pose significant risk to both marine vessel stability and human safety during harsh weather operations. The project will address a need for better physical understanding of marine icing phenomena and the development of appropriate sensors for detecting marine icing conditions. Current technologies have proven inadequate for marine conditions due to the complex […]

Creaform est une compagnie qui développe des technologies de scan et de mesure 3d pour l’inspection industrielle et la rétro-ingénierie. Les numériseurs sont tenus en main et reliés à un ordinateur portable qui permet de visualiser la géométrie de la surface des objets mesurés pendant l’acquisition. Généralement, les numériseurs sont utilisés dans un environnement contrôlé, […]

This project is focused on understanding the relationships between copper, gold, and other critical metals in central Newfoundland and their relationships of ore forming fluids to magmatism, faulting and ancient volcanic activity. The work will involve three MSc-level interns that will undertake fieldwork, laboratory work and computer modeling (i.e., machine learning) while being embedded with […]

Ce projet vise à approfondir les connaissances sur les facteurs influençant les ventes de livres, tant les ventes aux con-sommateurs dans les librairies indépendantes que les ventes aux bibliothèques, en se concentrant sur l’effet des prix littéraires. Les prix littéraires peuvent envoyer un signal de qualité, cependant la compréhension de l’effet des prix sur les […]

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become ubiquitous. However, many challenges still need to be addressed to capitalize on their unique capabilities to support the creation of new Internet-of-Things services. The main difficulty is managing a swarm of UAVs in challenging environments. This project focuses on developing and evaluating a new UAV-based persistent surveillance system (UPSS) […]

Natural history collections and the specimens stored within are vital to our understanding of biodiversity, ecology, and evolution. To both preserve and increase their accessibility, efforts are being made to digitize the world’s natural history collections. In herbariums (natural history collections for plants), machine learning is being used to assist the digitization process by classifying […]

City staff are guided by policies when making decisions about their community. Some cities have taken the initiative to adopt a policy that embeds equity considerations into decision making. However, many other cities are still earlier in their path to creating more equitable communities and need support. Researchers and planning practitioners have heard from city […]

Cell-based therapies have the potential to revolutionize the treatment of chronic diseases such as endocrine and autoimmune disorders, neurological degeneration, and cancer. These treatments utilize cells as localized biofactories to secrete therapeutic molecules. However, one major roadblock in efficiently utilizing cell-based therapies is the cells survival and wellbeing in bioprinted devices. This is due to […]
