The global demand for protein is increasing at a rapid pace. Certainly, the animal-based proteins alone will not be able to respond to the anticipated rise in demand. Among various sources, plant-based proteins have been identified as the most reliable option. However, they carry an undesirable taste or odor. The aim of this project is […]

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 insurance industry is a competitive sector that is expected to account for 3.1 percent of Canada’s Gross Domestic Product in 2021. Leading insurers are investigating how machine learning (ML) may enhance company operations and customer satisfaction as clients become more selective about personalizing their insurance purchases to their particular needs.

The particularly important goals faced in the world oil and gas sector is the increasing hydrocarbon production and net zero carbon emissions. Achieving climate neutrality means balancing emissions in such a way that the entry of CO2 into the atmosphere is prevented by its absorption, further utilization and storage. The Enhanced HC Recovery methods and […]

Food security is a global concern due to the ever-increasing population amid limited agricultural land resources. Farmers utilize fertilizers and herbicides to ensure consistent crop establishment. However, overuse of fertilizers and other treatments leads to negative consequences resulting in soil depletion, environmental contamination, and pollution. An effective way to reduce these toxic chemicals is to […]

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 […]
