Early Learning is an impotant undertaking in Canadian society and supporting young children as they move from home to early learning centres onto kindergarten classes is of particular interest and value to educators, helping us to ensure we provide the right environments and supports for all young children. This research will help us to provide […]

Today, the development of complex products such as aircraft systems is still mainly based on a paper-based requirements and development process which leads to delays, cost overrun and sometimes failure to respond to customer needs. A structured, model-based design approach is considered promising to bring innovation and optimization in systems architectures. The project aims to […]

In this project, we will be investigating ways of improving the quality of rendered fluids for films. Fluid simulation is an important component in modern films, and we will be building a better fluid simulator capable of simulating more delicate fluid effects (such as water pouring into a glass), as opposed to the larger, more […]

L’interaction entre les sulfures contenus dans les rejets miniers, l’eau et l’oxygène peut mener à la formation du phénomène du drainage minier acide (DMA) si le potentiel de neutralisation de ces rejets est insuffisant pour contrer l’acidité produite. Le DMA est caractérisé par une acidité élevée et des concentrations en métaux importantes. Il existe plusieurs […]

Depuis plusieurs décennies, les États concluent des accords régionaux de libre-échange afin de faire tomber les barrières au commerce. L’Organisation mondiale du commerce reconnaît et encourage ces accords en raison de leur capacité à faire croître davantage la libéralisation des échanges. Ces Accords font pour la plupart intervenir deux ou trois États limitrophes qui acceptent […]

Solar energy is one of the best sources of environmentally friendly reliable energy. Metamaterials is one of the subjects of nanotechnology, which applies scientific and engineering principles to make and utilize very small things— things at the nanometer scale, where unique phenomena enable novel applications. How to improve the efficiency and reduce the cost of […]

Project is to import ten year’s of historical data on news events, public sentiment metrics and the price movement of S&P 500 related equities for study and analysis through the latest Data Mining and Machine Learning techniques. The goal is to uncover correlation and causality between events and price movement of global markets in multiple […]

Surgical adhesions can form after many kinds of surgery, and affect millions of patients every year, hindering healing and causing pain and infertility. ARC Medical Devices has shown that treating a surgical site with fucoidan, a polysaccharide extracted from some types of seaweed, greatly reduces surgical adhesions in animals, but a source of pure fucoidan […]

Prior research has shown that rolling muscles can increase flexibility without performance decreases. These studies have used a variety of rolling pressures (intensities). It is not known whether higher or lower rolling pressures are better for improving flexibility. Thus one of the studies will examine different pressures of rolling on flexibility and muscle performance. On […]

The proposed research will allow us to determine how the human central nervous system (i.e. brain and spinal cord) functions to produce different intensities of muscle contractions with and without fatigue. We will use a variety of stimulation technics to determine how active the brain and spinal cord are during the arm contractions. We do […]

A Way Home Ottawa (AWHO) is a community-based initiative to end and prevent youth homelessness in the Ottawa region. In 2016 Carleton researchers Justin Langille and Dr. Kennelly worked with AWHO to ask youth and adult service providers what improvements need to be made to the existing system to ensure youth always have access to […]

Le projet de recherche du Cercle Lab Vivant vise à proposer une alternative aux modalités d’interactions entre les personnes afin de renforcer l’engagement du public du Cercle. Dans cette optique, le Cercle Lab Vivant souhaite mettre en oeuvre un dispositif pour l’interaction collective non-verbale. Les étudiants travailleront à l’élaboration d’un prototype intégrant ces nouvelles modalités […]
