The GSI projectile fragment separator (FRS) is a versatile, high-resolution magnetic spectrometer designed to efficiently separate projectile fragments in their mass and nuclear charge. It has been efficiently used in the study of nuclear structure and reaction dynamics with relativistic radioactive heavy-ions over the last few decades. In the present project the intern will learn […]

The student will use the interacting shell model to study properties of ground and low-lying excited states as well as the corresponding electromagnetic and weak transitions for nuclei of importance for astrophysical scenarios like the nucleosynthesis in the r-process. For this the student has to learn about the shell model and how to perform and […]

In order to understand how chemical bonds fracture and form, and to predict how electrons rearrange in photoactive materials, one must describe the electron structure of the substances. This requires evaluating a quantum-mechanical model for the system. Unfortunately, accurate quantum-mechanical models require enormous computational resources, and can only be applied for tiny systems. For systems […]

Metal additive manufacturing is a promising manufacturing technique that has attracted attentions in the recent years due to the ability to manufacture complex parts. During the process, metal goes through complex thermal treatment, which causes defects such as porosity and lack of fusion in the final part. Understanding the relationship between process parameters and parts’ […]

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a product construction process by adding successive layers of materials according to computer-aided design models. Recently, metal AM products have been increasingly applied in aerospace, automotive, and biomedical industries. However, the complex interactions (i.e. thermal field) between metallic components and manufacturing processes make the product qualities inconsistent and unreliable, resulting in […]

Esdilagh Development Corporation(EDC) business Interns to perform business development research to inform the composition of business plans, ensuring we have professional business guidance tools to assist EDC in engaging in business sectors as identified in the Esdilagh Economic Development Plan and Investment Profile completed in 2011. Project goals are to produce professional quality Business Plans […]

Viscoelastic Coupling Dampers (VCDs) have been developed over the past 15 years at the University of Toronto and by Kinetica for use in multi-storey buildings constructed with conventional construction techniques (steel and concrete). It has been shown the VCDs improve the wind and seismic performance of these buildings, leading to safer, higher performing and more […]

My proposed internship is part of a larger research project, my thesis. In my research, I present the first critical, academic discourse on Youval Shimoni’s body of work through an examination of the concepts and aspects of space in his works, and their relation to Israeli reality. In my thesis, Shimoni’s work is mapped for […]

In this project, the intern will work with an expert team from the company Zapata, to compare the performances of machine learning models on classical computers and on quantum models in terms of generalization to unseen data

This project will investigate the determinants of performance in the sport of judo to optimize training and enhance performance development. Judokas must perform multiple high-intensity efforts that cause fatigue, and most of their training is devoted to mitigating the development of fatigue during matches. However, our knowledge of key metabolic responses and adaptations is still […]

LatenceTech offers a cloud analytics and monetization solution for cellular networks with a special focus on ultra-low latency connectivity. Using SAAS and AI, our solution helps mobile operators, telecom vendors and advanced industries to track, predict and secure the new benefits of 5G cellular technology. The project consists in performing an analytical decomposition of the […]

A significant portion of the population in Newfoundland live in rural areas. Housing presents a number of challenges to this populace including, but not limited to, the high cost of rent, low vacancy rate, the high cost of utilities, and the deteriorating nature of some rentals. Housing challenges also affect the mental state of renters […]
