The focus of this project will be how modern technologies, specifically static and mobile laser scanners, drone photogrammetry, and Virtual Reality (VR) can be applied to solve issues related to renovating and utilizing (repurposing) old buildings. This is a multi-disciplinary approach with college interns from Geomatics Engineering and Architecture Engineering programs.

The main goal of this research project is to reduce the rate of occurrence of these distresses by designing and developing improved asphalt binder and asphalt mixtures appropriate for St. John’s environmental and loading conditions. The project will develop recommendations on specifications for asphalt binders, modifiers and asphalt mixtures to enhance the rutting and moisture […]

L’indsutrie minière vit actuellement d’important changement en raison des nouvelles technologies des communications qui permettent maintenant la transmission efficace de données dans les mines souterraines. Ces nouvelles technologies faciliteront l’automatisation des équipements d’extraction, rendront accessible l’interopérabilité entre ceux-ci et permettront la numérisation des opérations. Le projet de recherche présenté dans cette demande souhaite tirer profit […]

Increased physical activity has been shown to be beneficial for people who experience infertility and obesity. However, limited research exists on exercise programs that help women improve their ability to conceive. Using the principles of exercise science, our research team will develop an exercise program for women experiencing infertility and obesity. Due to COVID-19, there […]

We live in a world that is increasingly dominated by humans which places wildlife under extra pressure to cope with changes to their landscape. One of the most important ways that animals can cope with these changes is to show plasticity in their behaviour. Altering their social behaviour to allow them to reduce the risks […]

The goal of this project is to combine the respective strengths two novel, complementary approaches to solving the Quantum Many Body Problem, the name given to the problem of the equations of quantum mechanics becoming impossible to solve by conventional methods due to very large numbers of particles being involved, such as in materials. To […]

The project overview to be completed by the intern is researching best practices by conducting reviews of national and global technology associations and creating a membership database for the company. This will be completed by researching information of the current and potential members, and compiling this information into a database that will continuously be updated. […]
