Ce projet vise principalement l’application de matériaux à changement de phase dans l’enveloppe des bâtiments. L’objectif global de ce projet est de réduire la consommation d’énergie et d’améliorer le confort thermique de vie des Québécois. Ensuite, l’objectif principal de ce projet est d’utiliser de nouveaux MCP biosourcés ; permettant ainsi la haute performance des bâtiments bois […]

Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) struggle with social outcomes in friendship, life, and career domains yet programming to address these barriers to work and life outcomes are limited for adults. To address some of these needs, the Principal Investigator and a student team developed a consumer-driven program) to provide Winnipeg adults with ASD an […]

Ce projet de recherche vise à modéliser la stabilité du manteau neigeux en tenant compte de sa variabilité spatiale. Le stage de recherche va permettre de réaliser l’objectif 2 de la thèse de doctorat de l’étudiant qui est d’évaluer l’effet de la variation spatiale des propriétés mécaniques de la neige sur la stabilité d’une pente. […]

The objective of this GRA is to recreate high mobility debris flows in the laboratory to create the novel observations of landslide shear behaviour during flow needed to further refine predictive models of landslide mobility. Specifically, this collaboration is aimed to unlock the synergy between advanced sensor technologies developed by the team at the Technion […]

Measurements of the fundamental properties of neutrons may yield insight into unsolved problems in particle physics and astrophysics. Intense sources of ultracold neutrons, and efficient neutron storage and detection, are needed to make these measurements possible. A new neutron storage vessel, designed and built in Canada, will be tested at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research […]

The Federal Government in Canada announced to ban harmful single-use plastics in 2019. University of Calgary has undertaken responsible stewardship towards sustainable development through the creation of a “zero-waste” campus vision. Eliminating the use of single-use plastics on the campus would directly contribute towards the goal. Dr. Irene Herremans and Kruti Mukesh working with Nature’s […]

Being able to analyze a 3D model of a patient’s pelvic bones allows doctors to plan surgeries and diagnosis diseases. With continued improvements in medical imaging and machine learning, it is now fast and accurate to produce these models. However, current techniques rely on CT scans that emit ionizing radiation. This type of radiation is […]

Recent work in the human-robot interaction community has revealed drones as social entities with emotional capabilities, beyond their initial status of mechanical objects. We build upon this work and envision drones as emotional support technology. To evaluate the validity of this concept, we outlined a design space for Emotional Support Drones (ESD) in our preliminary […]
