The primary role of the lubrication system of aero-engines is to remove the excess heat generated by the movement of the bearings, gears and shafts. As a part of the lubrication system, an aero-engine has bearing chambers whose principal function is containing oil and preventing oil leakages. Inside the bearing chamber is found a mixture […]

Millions of people post information on social media sites about their interests, preferences, opinions etc. on a daily basis. LeadSift mines this data stream in real-time to generate incredibly accurate and targeted sales leads. Given the short text and ambiguity around a social post, it gets very difficult to accurately identify intent. This project will […]

The main objective of the project is to develop a software system to expertly capture an electronic health profile of a client with physical and/or cognitive disabilities to determine their level of functional ability, mobility and cognitive ability. Using the profile, the system will expertly assess the client’s ability to live either independently or with […]

The advantages of cloud computing have been mainly used from a service perspective. It offers virtually unlimited resources in CPU, memory and bandwidth, under a service agreement scheme, in order to use those resources to provide a service. Operators leverage on this model to achieve economies of scale, by hosting as much customers as possible […]

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is the leading cause of blindness in premature neonates. ROP is associated with inflammation largely mediated trough interleukin (IL-1), which triggers an initial critical phase of ocular vascular degeneration. ROP is also an excellent model of ischemic retinopathies in general. The formation of new blood vessels after tissue ischemia is not […]

BACKGROUND: Viral respiratory tract infection (VRTI) is the most common illness in humans, resulting in a total economic impact of $40 billion annually in the United States. Taking into consideration the current novel coronavirus pandemic – impacting billions of people around the world, compromising the global economy, and putting extreme pressure on healthcare systems – […]

Partout à travers le monde, le marché de l’énergie se renouvelle constamment afin d’assurer une bonne efficacité et fiabilité. Qui plus est, des citoyens choisissent d’être plus proactifs et autonomes par rapport à leur consommation d’énergie en la produisant eux-mêmes (prosommateurs). Parmi les stratégies émergentes, les échanges d’énergie en pair à pair (P2P), en communautaire […]

De nouvelles applications de surfaces interactives sont en plein essor telles que les écrans tactiles surdimensionnés et complètement transparents, des éléments d’habitacles interactifs dans les véhicules autonomes ou encore du mobilier interactif. Pour de telles applications, les technologies tactiles actuelles (capacitive, résistive, infrarouge) ne s’appliquent pas ou deviennent trop coûteuses. Une nouvelle technologie tactile par […]

In recent years, a dramatic increase in computer processing power and storage allowed the exploration of new frontiers in science by analyzing large, complex datasets. The field of neuroscience is evolving towards larger and more complex studies creating a huge amount of data that is hard to understand using classical analyses. Thus, the development of […]
