Rolling element bearings act as the heart of rotating machines. Any imperfection in their condition can lead to an abrupt failure which can be catastrophic. For more than two decades, implementing sensors for condition monitoring of bearings has been beneficial in preventing abrupt failure and fault detection. These sensors require a noise-free atmosphere to have […]

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) or drones have numerous applications in different industries. However, drones have limitations such as short flight time, limited flight range, and navigational inaccuracy in regions with unreliable GPS signal. To mitigate these limitations, using a group of drones to cooperatively perform the mission is proposed. The resulting parallel operation increases the […]

Light is a powerful sensing tool that humans are very familiar with. We are, however, only sensitive to a visible light. Much more can be learned from other types of light. Terahertz light is very low energy light that allows very sensitive non-invasive measurements to be made on many types of samples including biological and […]

Bolus covers patient’s skins to correct varying surface contours for desired dose distribution in cancer care. The existing method of bolus shaping is a manual process by cutting the bolus material into 2D pieces and wrapping the pieces on the targeted body area, which is inaccuracy and time-consuming. An accurate and efficient bolus shaping method […]

Upper limb rehabilitation devices mirror the skeletal structure of patients’ limbs and moves patients’ arms for recovery in rehabilitation exercises. Existing rehabilitation devices in the market have problems of adaptability and portability, which cannot meet different requirements of rehabilitation. This project will improve the design and build a prototype the device. The detail design will […]

The Asset site has important characteristics that facilitate bridging to the new technological solutions being pursued as well as beneficial infrastructure, integration, and geological attributes that could improve the feasibility and […]

La transition vers l’industrie 4.0 a amené avec elle un ensemble de bouleversements non seulement au niveau de l’activité économique, mais aussi au sein de la société. Afin d’évoluer dans cette nouvelle réalité, les individus ont besoin de nouvelles compétences non techniques. Ainsi, des adaptations sont indispensables au niveau de l’éducation et la formation professionnelle, […]

A microwave Isolator is a two-port device that acts as a unidirectional trap, protecting sensitive components in a system from signal reflection. It is analogous to the diode in a DC circuit or the check valve in a fluid-flow system. Isolators are commonplace in power amplifier, radar, antenna, and transceiver systems, making them essential in […]

Le développement de modèles sur le comportement humain est extrêmement complexe en raison, entre autres, de la difficulté à exprimer certaines connaissances acquises par l’expérience. Cognitive Shadow est un outil capable de capturer ces connaissances pour élaborer des modèles à travers de l’observation de la prise de décision des experts sans avoir à exprimer leurs […]

Plan Monark est une démarche technologique de type SAAS sur le point d’être commercialisée. Afin de s’assurer que la démarche technologique réponde aux besoins des chargés de projet ou intervenants conseil qui l’utiliseront, Plan Monark désire soumettre sa démarche technologique à un test d’acceptation en plus de valider l’utilité de son indicateur de convergence (entre […]

The goal of this research is to explore the extent to which building information models (BIM) can be extended into the operations, maintenance and continuous optimization of CIRS, the Centre for Interactive Research on Sustainability, and the most high-performance building on the UBC campus. The project team will develop and implement a BIM of the […]
