This research project aims to program a hand-held spectrometer to identify and analyze gamma radiation peaks emitted from isotopes. Based on the detected peaks, the device will identify the specific isotope from the gamma ray that was emitted. The partner organization will be able to commercialize such a device to be used in different areas […]

Acquiring labelled data for training supervised learning models is a barrier to a wider adoption of machine learning strategies in several industries. The data annotation task is generally complex and time-consuming. In this project, we will use raw unlabeled data generated by fiber sensors to reduce the burden of labelling data with problems within the […]

Periodontal diseases are the most important condition diagnosed in dogs’ mouth. Bacterial biofilm, also called dental plaque is the first step on the development of periodontal diseases and nearly 100% of dogs will develop dental plaques if routine removal is not regularly performed. The oral microbiota has been recently implicated in the development of dental […]

Plastics are widely used and their end-of-life management remains a challenge. In 2016, Canadians disposed 3.3 million tons of plastics where 86% was landfilled, 4% was incinerated with energy recovery and only 9% was recycled. The low recycling rate is partly due to a limited market for the recycled material produced via mechanical technologies like […]

The rapid advancement of wireless communications has drastically transformed the world over the last few decades. The next-generation wireless communication systems are expected to support a wide variety of requirements for diverse applications (e.g., the Internet of Things (IoT), industrial IoT (IIoT), autonomous driving, healthcare, virtual/augmented reality). Meeting such stringent requirements will bring significant challenges […]

Throughout my Doctoral Studies I have used various approaches to evaluate and/or predict the behaviour of cardiovascular structures in the setting of acquired disease. These have been focussed on two key methodologies: insilico testing aimed at predicting functional responses to therapeutic intervention, such as mechano-electric Finite Element Method (FEM) modelling of the left atrium strains […]

Acute stroke is a leading cause of global death and disability. Quick access to robust treatments significantly improves patient outcomes, however, accurate interpretation of diagnostic imaging and effective communication of suspected findings remains a serious challenge for all stroke networks. Circle Neurovascular Imaging (Circle NVI), a wholly owned subsidiary of Circle Cardiovascular Imaging (Circle CVI) […]

Ion sources are important for TRIUMF Canada’s national particle accelerator laboratory, as they are a key sub-system in the TRIUMF 500 MeV Cyclotron which is used for world-class fundamental discovery science, and cutting-edge technology development and transfer to the medical and industrial sectors. D-Pace is a spin-off of TRIUMF, and is a global leader in […]

In this project, we will analyze and design automated solutions to achieve several repetitive and labour-intensive tasks included in the industrial partner’s electromagnetic component production process, which will help compensate for current and future personnel shortages and enable the expansion of their custom production methods without expanding their facility. The main challenges in this project […]

This project attempts to design an efficient waste heat recovery and thermal management system for air-cooled electric vehicles. The thermal management system will be useful for the small electric vehicles to control the optimal temperature in the cabin and battery bank operating under diverse climatic conditions varying from extremely cold to hot. The successful accomplishment […]
