The focus of this project is focused on developing thermal transport coatings, which makes use of a new proprietary graphene-like material developed by 3M Canada. The need for improved thermal transport coating is important to numerous optoelectronic applications, photovoltaics and in particular the semiconductor industry as computing power continues to increase. The proposed research will […]

This project is to develop a micromirror with large static translation displacement and high surface quality by combining two microfabrication processes. Based on the developed micromirror, the next generation alcohol interlock technology, i.e., MEMS (MicroElectroMechanial System) FTIRS alcohol interlock will be developed and commercialized in collaboration with ACS to overcome the limitations of the current […]

The objective of the present project is to develop the necessary tools for the optimization of the manufacturing of large size forged ingots made of high strength steels used in the transportation and energy industries. The project will analyze all the manufacturing steps including, ingot casting, open die forging and quench & temper steps. For […]

This project will help Solanum Genomics International determine the export potential of one its technologies for improving potatoes. The commercial opportunity for this technology lies in improving the potato by increasing its genetic variability through a process called somaclonal variation. By understanding the market and its needs – knowing what traits the market is interested […]

Carbon nanopearls are an exciting novel class of materials that present unique characteristics, and they turn out to be an excellent alternative to carbon nanotubes for different applications. Presently, they are experimented with success as material for cold cathodes for electron?beam based instrumentation applications and they can be used for the development of polymer nanocomposites […]

In this project, we plan to address the specific application and problem that TeTechS Inc is facing at this stage of its product development of photoconductive antennas, which is using its photoconductive antennas for characterizing performance of quantum cascade lasers (QCL) in time-domain measurement setup by demonstrating the capability of its proprietary terahertz sensor technology […]

The design and manufacturing of dies and molds represent a significant link in the entire production chain. It is on the critical path of development of many products, such as automobile and consumer electronics. The tooling development industries always meet three challenges: the demand for research and development speed, the high requirement for labor skill, […]

Le stage a pour objectif l’amélioration l’efficacité de l’entrepise en utilisant un ensemble des techniques et méthodolgies du domaine de génie industriel. La première tâche principale est de mettre a jour l’ERP de l’entreprise ‘Enterprise Ressource Planning’. Il s’agit d’une base de données qui contient plusieurs sortes d’information de l’entreprise comme; la comptabilité, la logistique, […]

L’entreprise Nadeau Design a développé le SNAD, un véhicule urbain qui s’utilise avec des équipements sportifs actuels tel que la planche à roulettes ou le patin à roues alignées pour bénéficier d’une assistance motorisée électrique lors des déplacements. Comme plusieurs éléments du SNAD ont toujours des lacunes sur le plan de l’utilisabilité, ce qui compromet […]

Newly available technologies for 3D fabrication — notably hobbyist 3D printers — are widening the user base for 3D design software. Autodesk, currently the industry leader in 3D design software, is broadening the scope of their activities, seeking to reach amateur users and to encourage their use of Autodesk software solutions. One of the most […]

The first phase of the project produced a detailed modeling and documentation of the Sales and Quotation phase of the partner's business process. Interview results were combined with existing documents, database information, etc., to map and describe the business tasks in the process. The primary deliverable for the first phase was a detailed model of […]

The mining sector plays a huge role in the Saskatchewan economy, in addition to being the largest private sector employer of Aboriginal peoples in the province. It is important economically and socially for the mining workforce to be healthy and productive. Yet we know little about the impacts of physical and mental health on productivity, […]
