This project will produce a rock launching device for curling as well as a printer that will print pebbled curling ice sheets. These devices will be used to help understand the physics of curling (which are still not understood). They will also be used to enhance the fairness of curling competitions and to help train […]

There are increasing demands from the mining industry for automated measurement of key process parameters so the operators can have more control of the process and rapid reaction to the change of conditions such as feed properties. SRC is developing an automated and online measurement platform which can detect and quantify active clays, water hardness […]

An excessive amount of end-of-life (EOL) textile in Canadian thrift stores have been reported since the first wave of COVID-19 in March 2020. The donated clothes have gradually filled the thrift stores and a management plan is urgently needed. The quantity and composition of EOL textile, as well as the seasonal variations, are poorly understood. […]

This research project has two goals. The first goal is to design and test software that will automatically transcribe 9-1-1 emergency calls and interpret their meaning with respect to the central facts of an emergency (who, where, and what occurred) as well as possibly when, why, and how the emergency occurred. The second goal is […]

Research has confirmed the lethal effects of the COVID-19 virus on the cardiac function, and thus the proposed research will investigate the use of heart imaging data during a hospital intervention can help us understand what happens to those with both COVID-19 and a heart attack. This research is being conducted using a multi-centre approach […]

This research project will be conducted through internship research by students in the Master in Northern Governance and Development (MNGD). The MNGD is a project-based, interdisciplinary program meant to build capacity among northerners in northern Saskatchewan through a blended delivery model including face-to-face, videoconferencing, online and international field school instruction. The 2013-2014 internship research project […]

This project investigates the cost effectiveness of applying product line techniques to the development of the common elements of certain types of video games. Approximately ten games will be analyzed to identify those parts that are used by most of the games. Those commonly used parts will then be re-engineered to make them more generic […]

Human-caused bruises, tail lesions caused by tail biting, ear lesions, among other things, in slaughter pigs are detrimental to animal welfare, a violation of the Animal Welfare Act, and a source of public concern. Animal-based indicators of welfare are quantifiable characteristics on the animal that are reflective of what the animal has experienced. The evaluation […]

Disruptive antenna technologies are required to provide performance and fabrication advantages in developing broadband wireless application products in emerging upper microwave and millimeterwave radio bands. The internship will investigate the feasibility of applying Polymer-based Dielectric Resonator Antenna (PRA), technology developed at the University of Saskatchewan, to commercial antenna array applications.

The next generation neutrino experiments like Hyper-Kamiokande will have statistical power, but the presence of detector systematics will limit the discovery potential of the experiments. The uncertainties due to construction tolerances, support frame shift from PMT buoyancy, and the source deployment system, combined with uncertainties in PMT angular response, and position-dependent water quality, can limit […]

Rural homelessness in Canada is still an ongoing problem that the country is trying to address. Most of Canada’s indigenous families in remote communities are living in substandard housing that needs major repairs. 3D printing of cementitious material to digitally construct building structures has already gained considerable attention from both the public and private sectors. […]

The City of Saskatoon and the Faculty of Social Work, University of Manitoba, is collaborating in an innovation and development project to enhance Saskatoon city’s Diversity Equity and Inclusion initiatives addressing systemic barriers. This one-year business strategy development project will engage senior City officials, community leaders and PhD student interns in knowledge mobilization (KMb) workshops […]
