The widespread use of renewable energy sources requires inverters to connect to the grid for enhanced control and operational flexibilities of the system. However, these “inverter-based resources” (IBRs) can sometimes cause unstable interactions with the grid which necessitate prior detailed simulation studies. Detailed Electro-Magnetic Transient (EMT) simulations are essential for these IBRs due to their […]

Dust and biomass debris have serious negative effects on the performance of material handling farm equipment, such as reduced efficiency, increased maintenance costs, and heightened fire hazards. However, there is a lack of understanding of dust and debris generation and dispersion within farm equipment. CNH Industrial is searching for innovative solution for dust and biomass […]

Organic photoredox catalysis is a profitable, emerging methodology in synthetic chemistry, making countless challenging chemical transformations easily accessible. For organic photocatalysts, the active catalyst responsible for single electron transfer to substrates was initially proposed to be the excited state of the radical anion of the photocatalyst, formed in-situ. Recently, the Nocera group has shown that […]

This project focuses on improving the component quality after Laser Beam Machining (LBM) for HS188 (AMS5608), a superalloy critical in aerospace and power generation due to its high strength and corrosion resistance. LBM often leaves a recast layer, a residue of resolidified molten material on the side edges, which weakens the material’s strength and corrosion […]

The proposed project aims to develop a reproducible recipe for producing concrete augers that meet current expectations for wear performance and longevity. The project involves structural characterization of the hard matrix, particularly, the distribution and morphology of martensite, and the hardening particles, including various carbides embedded in such matrix. The hardness of different regions will […]

3D Concrete Printing (3DCP) could potentially increase the efficiency of construction projects and profitability. However, 3DCP typically mixes contain high volume of paste which implies high volume of binder. The expeditious development of 3DCP requires exploring other prospective and sustainable mixes besides the use of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) based mixes to meet the high-volume […]

The Client Success Story Campaign is designed to boost the marketing efforts of Penrose Partners by showcasing the real-world impact and success of their blockchain consultancy services. Through this project, the intern will gather and present detailed case studies and testimonials from clients who have benefited significantly from Penrose Partners’ expertise. This content will be […]

The general objective of this project is to provide an update to the GFIT application that will include the following: The ability to automatically send the user a receipt to use for insurance. To develop the integration between workout logs and workout plans. To integrate the digital clinic with a direct booking system. The ability […]

Phytochemicals including vitamins, carotenoids and phenolic compounds have been widely accepted as the functional substances that make cereal grain health beneficial. Increasing evidence has shown the relation between these antioxidant phytochemicals and reduced risks of oxidative-stress related chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and some cancers. Among these cereal grains, rice is of critical […]

Fireweed Food Co-op (FFC) is a non-profit multi-stakeholder co-operative based in Winnipeg, Manitoba that facilitates the connection between food producers and customers as a distributor. A continual challenge for growth in the co-op is to acquire more funding from government and organizational grants. Communicaiton and messaging are key components in acquiring that funding, however, demonstrating […]

The current project aims to look at Indigenous women’s experiences seeking help for intimate partner violence (IPV) in crisis and second-stage women’s shelters. Resolve’s previous study demonstrates that rural women, including rural Indigenous women, experience a lack and a shortage of IPV-related services (Kardashevskaya et al., 2022). In addition, services may not be culturally safe […]

Line-commutated Converters (LCC) have been used for over half a century due to their robustness as well as high power capacity. However, they can face challenges from voltage and frequency disturbances in the case of terminating in a very weak ac network. Such systems use synchronous condensers (SCs) to provide voltage and frequency support at […]
