The principal objective of this project is to design and fabricate optically functional, slim, flexible, dielectric coatings – luminescent wavelength encoded lattices (LWELs) – that enhance sunlight harvesting and therefore, within the short term, have a measurable, significant impact on the efficiency of commercially available solar cells. LWELs will combine two powerful approaches to incandescent […]

In archaeology, chemical analysis of elements in bones can unlock a wealth of anthropological information. Individuals are exposed to various elements throughout their lives, (from sources including food, drinking water, and cookware), which are stored in bone tissue. Because bone tissue regenerates continuously, skeletal remains contain a record of an individual’s lifetime of exposure to […]

It is forecast that by 2023, Canada will be facing a critical shortage of pilots. If the launch of Delphi technology’s MVP is successful, it is predicted that the project will significantly aid Canada in this critical shortage. The main challenge with this project is raising the desired amount of awareness for the brand, given […]

This project, a collaboration between the Arctic Youth Network (AYN) and Project CREATeS, is to create a virtual platform that supports suicide prevention in Arctic youth by building a virtual community, as well as to promote mental wellbeing through digital and creative media. The proposed youth-led, community-based research agenda builds upon a successful grant completed […]

Le couplage d’un plasma avec un milieu liquide est un projet de recherche très original, en termes des applications dans différents domaines et en termes de physique fondamentale. L’objectif du projet est de réaliser une étude expérimentale des décharges électriques dans ou en contact avec l’eau. Cela permettra d’identifier des caractéristiques physico-chimiques associées aux décharges […]

Bacillus and Pseudomonas are ubiquitous bacteria found in the soil and are used as biofungicide in organic agriculture. Their beneficial effects include secretion of volatiles and phytohormones promoting growth and several antibacterial metabolites that suppress phytopathogens. Recently, it has been demonstrated that some Pseudomonas species affect Bacillus growth through the secretion of secondary metabolites, likely […]

L’importance de mon projet de recherche vient du manque de connaissances sur l’ampleur et le rôle de l’hétérogénéité individuelle sur la démographie et la capacité d’adaptation des population animales. Avec l’aide du professeur Alastair Wilson à l’Université d’Exeter en Angleterre, je vais évaluer les causes et les conséquences de l’hétérogénéité individuelle dans les patrons de […]

Rammed earth materials can bring many advantages regarding its low energy consuming and environment impacts and high thermal mass. To overcome the time consuming and labor-intensive process of construction, self-consolidating earth concrete (SCEC) can be an innovative solution to facilitate placement, consolidation, and achieve good performance. The Phase 1 will identify the optimum volume of […]

Les indices de durabilité représentant les 3 modes de transport de l’eau et des agents agressifs dans le béton (perméabilité, absorption et diffusion) et permettant une évaluation de la durabilité du matériau ont été historiquement mesurés sur des bétons sains. Néanmoins, ces mesures ne reflétaient pas la réalité de structures fissurées et soumises à des […]

The lack of scientific data on the potential effects of instream tidal power extraction on migratory fishes is delaying the decision-making process on a technology that shows promise for reducing carbon emissions, and for which Canada could become a global leader in the production of infrastructure. It remains unclear if fishes that occupy Canada’s leading […]
