This project aims to develop and evaluate new geometric modeling algorithms of power line and building objects required for conducting power-line related asset risk analysis in challenging environment considering wind blowing effects. The project also aims to integrate newly developed algorithms into York University’s in-house power line modeling test bed and evaluate their performance using […]

Mobile note-taking has soon taken over our digital world. With many digital applications offered on computers, mobile devices, and tablets. We want to further improve on this experience for those working in the law-enforcement industry and create an easy, and readily accessible application for police officers’ use. This mobile application will be a productive alternative […]

This project explores the history of bird sound recording in Canada and the USA, with a specific focus on the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology at Cornell University, New York, which holds the world’s largest bird sound archive. I will focus on three case study recordings: Arthur A Allen and Peter Paul Kellogg’s 1935 Ivory-Billed Woodpecker […]

Diabetes mellitus, a metabolic disease affecting 422 million people worldwide, had often been associated with a loss in bone quality and strength, causing a higher fracture risk. However, thorough characterization of diabetic bone at the nanoscale has never been completed. This may indeed be relevant, as the structure and chemistry of the nanoscale components of […]

Qubit Systems designs and builds instrumentation for research and teaching in the biological sciences. Founded 25 years ago, the company sells equipment to universities, research institutes and commercial entities worldwide. Products are used across the entire spectrum of the biological sciences including bioreactors to cultivate algae and bacteria; respirometers to monitor the metabolic activity of […]

This research project involves developing strategies and actionable recommendations to support the partner organization in transitioning its client base. As part of its long-term growth strategy, the company aims to work with medium and large enterprises and organizations.

The aim of this study is to develop novel biolubricants based on complex esters for non-internal combustion engine applications, and the main task of this project include synthesis and characterization of complex esters derived biolubricants. vegetable oils cannot be used directly as lubricants due to some performance limitations such as thermal and oxidative stability. In […]

In a seminal paper, Juslin and Västfjäll (2008) propose that visual imagery—i.e. experiencing images such as landscapes, people or abstract shapes in one’s mind’s eye—is one of several mechanisms by which music induces emotions in the listener. This claim is supported by evidence showing that 77% of a representative sample report having experienced visual imagery […]

Project involves data gathering and collection, analysis and subsequently using the results to devise an appropriate business model to sustain and scale up a new digital technology-smart phone enabled visual inspection with acetic acid (SEVIA). This technology was developed for the purpose of preventive screening of cervical cancer in women in low resource settings.

This project will apply business concepts, technique and theories to the real-world. It will support Pisces RPM with business development initiatives such as, proposal writing, project management support, and engaging with current and potential clients. Given that COVID-19 has disproportionately affected women in every workforce across every sector, it is more important than ever to […]

The facial recognition and identity solution industry was a USD 3.4 billion market in 2019 which is growing at a rate of 14.5%. Unsurprisingly, this untapped market is a target market for different technology firms but such lucrative markets also have some issues due to the ‘young’ nature of the sector. The main difficulty is […]

Our goal is to create an environment for the robots to participate in a cooperative situation and collaborate with other robots and human on cooperating task. Games like Hanabi and Block Stacking problems are good examples of goal-oriented and cooperation focused problem-solving tasks that will lead us to implement an algorithm that can be applied […]
