This dissertation project will analyze the multi-angular process of refugee transnationalism in which different non-European refugee groups seeking asylum in Turkey where they are temporarily settled and protected. After having quasi protection from the Turkish state and living in-between conditions, those non-European asylum seekers are resettled to third countries such as the United States, Canada, […]

The proposed research project seeks to define the environmental advantages and cost challenges associated with the design of two types of alternative fuel vehicles; battery electric and bi-fuel CNG + gasoline, with respect to a changing American market. These alternative fuel vehicles will be compared to traditional internal combustion vehicles and assessed based on the […]

Despite the low rate of occurrence, inmate suicide is a tragedy that results in a loss of life and leads to a number of problems for the correctional institution. The goal of this project is to remotely monitor inmates in custody using radar technology in order to detect suicide attempts. Current radar systems for vital-sign […]

AI-MD is an AI-driven symptom checker that allows people to monitor their health and scan their body for suspected illness and disease. Millions of people are using symptom checkers online every month that only allow them to describe thier symptom information using text or checking off boxes. Not only are these tools not accurate, but […]

Membrane separation processes have very low operating and maintenance costs in comparison to other separation technologies. The purpose of this project is to further develop the production of membranes that are suitable for capturing greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane. A membrane that is suitable for industrial applications is able to create a […]

The overconsumption and overproduction of meat has led to an unbalanced and harmful relationship between the food industry and the environment. The Better Butchers have identified mycelium, mushroom root, as a great addition to current vegetarian proteins because of its high protein content, natural filamentous texture, and it can be grown easily in liquid culture. […]

The project aims to create a Python software that helps us better understand meteoroids, which are small celestial objects originating from comets and asteroids. This tool will analyze signals from radio meteor echoes, focusing on how meteoroids break apart when they enter Earth’s atmosphere, a phenomenon known as fragmentation. By comparing the software output with […]

If we can understand the microstructure of these steels, we can figure out how they will deform over the long term.

The objective of the SILO research project is to bridge the gap between theory and practice in STEM education by trialing the various STEM units in classrooms. A sub-objective of the SILO research project is to critique and refine the units according to the principles of Provisional Multimodal Research (PMR) in the context of creating […]

The overarching goal of the Globalink research project is to gain a comprehensive understanding of the 1991 Soviet coup attempt by delving into the motivations, strategic decisions, and enduring implications of this pivotal event. The central research question guiding this endeavor will have answers to such questions: What were the underlying motivations and strategic decisions […]

Our project aims to improve maize production efficiency and mitigate the impacts of climate change. By combining advanced computing, artificial intelligence, and remote sensing techniques, we will analyze data on maize cultivation, climate patterns, and soil health. This collaboration between institutions in both countries seeks to enhance agricultural sustainability, increase food security, and contribute valuable […]

Important challenges remain around planning an ethical, justified, and accountable strategy for transitioning from emergency to long-term planning or closure of programs. Canadian Red Cross (CRC) aims to develop a practical guidance tool for closing humanitarian programs that will combine established operational practices with evidence based ethical considerations.
