Solving the accessibility issues at primary care clinics in Canada by introducing a self scheduling booking application

Accessibility and availability are major factors of an effective health care system. Though Canadians have free access to medically necessary services, there are accessibility issues at primary care clinics such as long wait times, language barriers for new immigrants, lack of proper information about clinics and doctors, and so on. Waiting for a primary healthcare […]

Sustainable solution to chronic housing needs in the Canadian North

As Canada’s economy and population continue to rise, primarily due to substantial immigration, there is an urgent need for new infrastructure, in particular, in remote regions of Canada. This can be achieved through advanced technologies to improve productivity of the Canadian construction industry while reducing the environmental impact of construction. This project proposes the Self-Deployable […]

Surface and subsurface damage segmentation using thermography and deep learning

Infrastructure facilities in Canada and many other places worldwide continuously deteriorate. Most structures either reached or exceeded their design service life. Bridges, buildings, roads, and other facilities deteriorate over time. To ensure the safety of these structures, visual inspections are routinely carried out by trained engineers. However, these visual inspections have some critical disadvantages, such […]

Development of a finite element software module for the fatigue life prediction of welded structures.

Due to modification ease, cost, and time-saving benefits, computational-based methods through the use of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software programs is the main approach besides physical testing (accelerated durability laboratory test, in-service drive tests) for evaluating the life of welded structures in several industries. Based on guaranteed functionality, integrity, and life cycle robustness requirements in […]

3D Printing Affordable Housing for Remote Communities in Canada

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. […]

Scaling-up carbon fibre production from Alberta’s asphaltenes.

The proposed research project would focus on the development of high-value carbon fibers from low-value waste by-products, asphaltenes, for multifunctional applications. One part of the program would highlight the efforts to scale up the technology without deteriorating the process performance. The other part of the program would focus on working with North Forge in the […]

Full body suit for ergonomic risk assessment

The cost of musculoskeletal disorders in Canada overpasses the $25 billion dollars every year, this amount can be significantly reduced by proving good quality ergonomic assessments and training. The main reason that not all companies invest on ergonomic assessments and/or training is due to the high costs that this entails. This project aims to reduce […]

A study on additive manufacturing of a 304L stainless steel

Part distortion and residual stress development are two major issues that hinder the industry’s application of the Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) process. This research will study the formation of residual stress and the distribution of stress fields during the LPBF process using finite element method (FEM) modeling. A sequentially coupled thermo-mechanical FEM model will […]
