The Digital Fabrication Lab (Fab Lab) is situated in a high-risk zone where many youths become get involved in local gangs or else have to leave the area in order to study or obtain formal employment. The FabLab’s mission is to design a solution that is compatible to the local practices and context on order […]

The Diocesan Food Bank of Guadalajara (BDA) is a Civil Society organization which has operated in the Jalisco state of Mexico since 1991. Its main function is the management and distribution of food donated by companies and individuals, which are destined to the poor families of the State of Jalisco. Jalisco is home to 8.3 […]

n noisy environments, normal hearing individuals demonstrate an ability to tune into a desired speaker while attenuating irrelevant background noise. Previous studies have shown that by analyzing brain wave data in the form of electroencephalography (EEG), and applying a technique called stimulus reconstruction technique, we can determine and even roughly reconstruct the attended speech. These […]

Proton Membrane Exchange Fuel cells (PEMFC’s) are a promising and advantageous because of its simple structure, low maintenance, high efficiency, low operating temperature and rapid startup. It has variety of application in real world like, transportation, clean energy and use as an aviation fuel and many other possible uses. Regardless of that, there are certain […]

With the onset of climate change and an ever-increasing human population, Sub-Saharan Africa faces a three-pronged sustainable development dilemma: how to increase food security while also conserving biodiversity and reducing social inequality. Given the importance of agriculture in Sub-Saharan economies, agricultural intensification and expansion will likely comprise the main course of action to address food […]

When soil becomes contaminated, it is important to conduct a risk assessment to determine if there is any risk to humans. One way that humans can be exposed to soil is through ingestion where contaminants are made accessible by the body’s saliva, gastric, and intestinal juices. This concept is known as bioaccessibility, and gives a […]

This project focuses on considering uncertainties in hydrological models to obtain Groundwater Storage variations (GWS) during the period of April 2002 to June 2017 based on the availability of Gravity Recovery And Climate Experiment (GRACE) gravity data over Canadian Prairies. Moreover, we extract all components of groundwater signals in this area using the least square […]

The development of microelectronics based essentially on miniaturization in the previous century has given rise to other sectors in this area including the ability to design, develop new materials especially in the form of thin layers that may have new properties that will lead to the design and manufacture of devices for a wide variety […]

With the introduction of numerous automated vehicle development programs, the scientific community has developed several Open Source simulation software packages. The most notable is CARLA: http://carla.org/ With support from the driving simulator team at the Institute for Transport Studies https://uolds.leeds.ac.uk/ the summer intern will use the CARLA environment including both simulation and the Autonomous Driving […]

L’énergie éolienne connaît une croissance importante dans le monde et le Québec suit cette tendance mondiale. En effet, le gouvernement québécois a mis de l’avant des mesures concrètes afin d’encadrer le développement de l’énergie éolienne. Ceci se justifie par le fait que la province possède un potentiel considérable compte tenu de l’immensité de son territoire, […]

Examining the refugee camps in Bamberg, Upper Franconia as study cases, this master thesis will aim to identify different victim groups or divisions within the camps’ population and how the authorities and charities dealt with them. Those include women, children, ethnic or religious groups and disabled persons. Using gender as a category of historical analysis, […]
