Heavy oil (high viscosity oil) is trapped underground. Cold heavy oil production with sand (CHOPS) is an enabling technology to extract heavy oil through wormholes forming around wellbore. There are thousands of CHOPS wells in Saskatchewan and Alberta with low primary oil recovery. Cyclic solvent injection (CSI) enhanced oil recovery process stands out as one […]

Precision agriculture is adopting site-specific agriculture practices reducing farm inputs and increasing productivity. Site-specific agriculture requires information about every inch of the field. Provided the large farm holding of the Canadian Prairies, getting extensive information about the field is an uphill task. Currently, limited samples are taken from the field resulting in low spatial resolution. […]

This work aims to design and develop an efficient visual based vehicle re-identification system for International Road Dynamic. Vehicle re-identification, which is defined as: Identifying, classifying, and position-referencing a vehicle of interest through images/video streams collected via a network of camera stations, plays a key role towards developing intelligent transportation system.

Trying to elevate the growing struggles of labour shortage by focusing on trying to retain newly hired employees. Looking at how employers can properly onboard employees and ensure they are fully exposed to the organizations culture as quickly as possible. This will create a bond with the organization and increase the likelihood of retaining top […]

This research work will establish a systematic workflow for analyzing transient equilibrium foamy oil phase behavior by coupling the m-CCEC tests, depletion rate and presence of water-in-oil emulsion from microscopic viewpoint which are seldom performed for heavy oil. It will provide a strong connection and comparison with previously studies which was conducted in the absence […]

More than 80% of power outages in power grids are caused by faults in distribution networks. To improve the system’s reliability and resiliency, the service restoration is critical after faults. The Soft Open Point (SOP) is an emerging power electronic device, which can be connected to terminals of feeders or between networked microgrids, and can […]

Mental health issues are common worldwide and affect people in many ways. These issues include changes and instability in personality and mood, depression and anxiety, withdrawal from events and activities, etc. Computational approaches, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), in the early detection of mental disorders are promising. Even though machine learning […]

Internet of things (IoT) systems require significant management related to external intrusions, internal threats, device failures, access management, and performance monitoring. In addition to network management issues, quality of service (QoS) must be maintained to predict changes and determine device and network performance. A good IoT system should be able to identify, track, and mitigate […]

Mental health issues are common worldwide and affect people in many ways. In Canada, one in five people are dealing with a mental health disorder. The result of this is high emotional costs to those individuals and their social networks, and high economic costs to the country’s healthcare system. Refresh Wellness intends to offer a […]

Internship with ArcticShelf with the objective of overseeing fridge operations and expansion on campus at the University of Saskatchewan while working to establish ShelfStock delivery service to the fridges in partnership with culinary services.

The goal of this project is to build an information system to help SCA(Saskatchewan Cattlemen’s Association) improve the information flow between itself and cattle producers, make information more accessible for cattle producers and automate some of the procedure SCA currently has to do manually. Examples include sale reporting via web services and cow tracking via […]
