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, 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 ethylene […]

MISSING!! The objective of the research to be conducted under the present research grant is the development of a CFD based model of a helicopter wake for the purpose of tracking pesticide droplet transport. The fluid velocity field, once obtained, can be used for tracking spray releases for an unlimited number of combinations of droplet […]

This research will identify opportunities to leverage telematics data to inform policy changes such as safe vehicle operation and fleet operator responsibilities. It will guide the development of telematics data management policies and support key programs that aim to: improve fleet asset tracking, optimize equipment availability/utilization, advance fleet share, and promote safe vehicle operation and […]

Oil and gas pipelines generally traverse over a large distance through various ground conditions, from relatively flat areas to sloping grounds such as crossing hills, mountain ridges and rivers. Ground deformation/slope failure and upheaval buckling during operation pose a major threat to the structural integrity, safety and operability of the pipelines. In the proposed project, […]

This project focuses on the visible minorities with higher education or work skills (e.g., international graduates or skilled workers immigrants) and investigates the barriers for these immigrants to find a job at their level of skill and education. More specifically, this research seeks to understand how much racialized culture plays a part in recruiting diverse […]

Homelessness is a growing issue in Canada, with many cities including Montreal reporting increasing numbers of people experiencing homelessness on any given day. Youth homelessness is different from adult homelessness, because of the developmental stages (physical, mental, social, and emotional) youth are in and because of the unique barriers and challenges that they face. This […]

Coffee brewing process generates large amounts of spent coffee grounds (SCG). SCGs are often disposed as general garbage and transported to landfills, where they produce methane, a greenhouse gas 25 times more powerful than carbon dioxide, contributing to global warming. Hence, an efficient waste management system is important for managing such waste. An efficient waste […]

It’s very likely that shoppers have experienced many choices when browsing their favorite clothing store, more than they can keep up with. Whether these clothes end up being bought or not, they are likely to have a similar fate, ending up in landfills as waste and contributing to climate change. An alternative to face this […]

L’interprétation des images dans le sens où on établit la relation et l’interaction des entités de ces images est une étape essentielle dans des tâches comme la description textuelle d’une image. Un graphe de scène est une façon bien positionnée pour établir cette information. Pour cette raison, ce projet proposé par Thales vise à explorer […]
