As industry undergoes revolutionary changes with the integration of advanced controls, intelligent sensors and the machine to machine connectivity the limitations and expectations of autonomous systems are quickly rising. Well the autonomy of manufacturing robots is proving to be a key growth factor for efficient manufacturing, a new frontier is presenting itself. The next challenge […]

Small modular reactors have been identified by the Canadian government as a “source of safe, clean, affordable energy […] for Canada and Canadians”. Several of these reactor concepts rely on molten salt heat exchange loops, rather than traditional water-based heat exchangers. A key issue is that molten-salt driven corrosion is much less understood. This is […]

5G and beyond mobile networks are expected to support a variety of emerging use-cases, such as holographic telepresence, immersive extended-reality, cloud gaming, and autonomous driving. Such a diverse set of services imposes strict requirements on the mobile network along several dimensions, such as throughput, latency, and reliability. Network slicing has been envisaged as a key […]

This project seeks to advance the discovery of future cancer therapies by comparing healthy cells with abnormal cancer cells. By examining how proteins, the key functional components of cells, change between normal and diseased states, the intern(s) will help identify novel targets that may point to new therapeutic opportunities. The work uses established, quantitative proteomic […]

A hydrofoil is a wing like structure located on the underside of a watercraft, creating a lifting force which lifts the craft out of the water as it gains speed. They increase the fuel efficiency and speed of watercraft, allowing the craft to glide more smoothly over water. Hydrofoil effectiveness is restricted by issues such […]
