Advanced civil engineering research, design and simulation related to a microgeneration wind turbine guyed wire tilt tower system suitable to be install anywhere in Canada.

This research project aims to develop an integrated geostatistical-geomechanical approach to address the spatial distribution of rock mass mechanical properties, for use in optimization of Mont-Wirght open pit mine planning and design. This approach allows a better understanding of rock mass conditions based on limited sampling locations. The methodology would allow the inherent heterogeneity of […]

Infrasonic signatures are long wave acoustic signals in the under 20Hz range (below human hearing). The partner organization has been experimenting with infrasonic sensors to achieve 2 key outcomes: a) detection clear air turbulence to benefit commercial air travel and b) detection of ‘dark vessel’ marine traffic, i.e., illegal fishing. The ability to detect clear […]

Through archival research and oral history interviews, this collaborative project will trace the past and present of community-led and socially engaged arts education in the Katarokwi/Kingston. Working with the Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning, a dynamic arts hub in the region, as well as several of its tenant organizations, including Modern Fuel Artist Run […]

Youth-facing service providers in Waterloo Region have historically faced challenges when engaging marginalized youth. Through the Youth Action Initiative (YAI), Community Justice Initiatives (CJI) in partnership with the Waterloo Region Crime Prevention Council (WRCPC) aim to address barriers to equity and engagement for youth in Waterloo Region, particularly for youth who have been historically and […]

Healthy freshwater ecosystem plays a vital role in every Canadian’s daily life as primary drinking water source and sustains the social and economic status of Canada. However, Canada’s freshwater ecosystem has been negatively impacted by population growth, urbanization, industrialization, agriculture, and climate changes. The 2017 national assessment by World Wildlife Fund-Canada found that 60 among […]

MHRC is conducting ongoing polling of Canadians to assess the effect of COVID-19 on mental health. We require additional support to expand our capacity to analyze the datasets we are creating. Our poll is extensive including a number of markers of mental health along with an array of demographic controls and is rolled out every […]

A significant percentage of children around the world are affected by vision problems, such as lazy eye, that cannot be fixed by eyeglasses. When left untreated, vision problems may lead to learning difficulties. Vision therapy offers treatment to many of these problems where eye-trackers are tools used to diagnose and measure the progress of patients […]

The proposed research will develop cost-effective substrates for application in Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy. The substrates will be made using self-assembly methods for nanomaterials in aqueous medium and a final step of simple filtration. The nanoscale material will provide high sensitivity as a SERS substrate for detection of specific chemicals and microbes. The developed SERS […]
