District energy systems are specialized and sophisticated energy solutions that require detailed design and analysis. Their integration with existing utility infrastructure strengthens the resiliency and reliability of the energy services as it enables cities to achieve their energy savings targets and greenhouse gas emission targets. This research will investigate and model the use of distributed […]

In many cities, fleet operators are evaluating the potential environmental benefits of replacing gasoline-fuelled vehicles by alternative vehicles, particularly electric vehicles. In this process, reductions in energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions can be achieved. In this project, the company HDR proposes to partner with the Transportation and Air Quality (TRAQ) research group at the […]

The proposed project will involve reviewing the current processes involved in recruitment and selection at the organization. The objective would be to find out what knowledge, traits and experiences the right candidates should have, and how the organization can go about recruiting, hiring and motivating them. The recent move to remote work has presented s2h […]

The overall goal of the proposed project is to help SSW determine the best service model for supporting non-traditional organizations and minimizing the impact of supply disruption on Ontario’s healthcare system. While these non-traditional customers have historically managed their own supply chain services, the vast disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has left them vulnerable […]

A description and analysis of university policies from across Canada will provide a useful context for evaluating the policies on […]

Analyzing parking behavior and usage in large open-concept retail centers enables owners and managers to better understand how their parking facility is being used. Most large, open-concept shopping centers are experiencing a parking oversupply problem. Current parking allocation is inefficient and contributes to urban sprawl, large concrete pads that trap solar heat and a waste […]

Wild bees are vital to our parks, gardens, greenspaces and ecosystem services, but we know surprisingly little about their habitat requirements and dietary breadth. In this proposal, we will characterize wild bee nutrition including their health and microbiomes across Canada. The postdoc will learn skills in bioinformatics, science writing and science communication. The W. Garfield […]

Spectra’s first technology allows for police to analyze drugs at the scene of a crime, meaning they know what they are dealing with immediately, versus standard one to three-month turnaround times from current lab testing processes. Public health can also use the tech at supervised consumption sites to help those who use drugs make informed […]
