Many applications often need access to information from multiple independent data sources, including public sources found on the Internet and private sources e.g., hospitals. Software that sits between an application and the data sources, so called “middleware”, can help facilitate this access. However, development of this “middleware” can be very time consuming, is often only […]

Vers un modèle hybride économie-ingénierie des systèmes énergétiques: comment améliorer l’évaluation des politiques énergétiques et climatiques dans le modèle d’équilibre général calculable NAGEM, notamment en améliorant le lien avec le modèle d’optimisation NATEM?

This project addresses the main problem in utilizing Additive Manufacturing (AM) in industries like oil and sands and aerospace, which is the assurance of the quality of the part. This project is a novel approach to providing 3-dimensional thermal data from the 3D printing process, which can provide valuable data and allow engineers to delve […]

The project aims to improve the quality of 3D-printed parts by developing an in-situ nondestructive method that combines spectroscopy with Wire-Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM). This involves using a spectrometer and developed algorithms to monitor the welding process, providing comprehensive material characterization during the 3D printing process. Implementing this in-situ sensor will improve process quality control […]

The proposed project, VisioConTech, aims to revolutionize construction site monitoring through the implementation of automated, real-time systems designed to enhance safety, reduce costs, and improve operational efficiency. Traditional monitoring methods, which rely heavily on human observation, are inherently prone to errors and delays, frequently resulting in significant budget overruns and heightened safety risks. VisioConTech leverages […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW.

L’organisation partenaire du projet se dénomme le TIESS (Territoires Innovants en Économie Sociale et Solidaire). Le TIESS est une OBNL dont la mission consiste à contribuer au développement territorial par le transfert de connaissances en outillant les organismes d’économie sociale et solidaire afin qu’ils puissent faire face aux enjeux de société de façon innovante et […]

This project focuses on enhancing wildfire resilience in the southern Okanagan Highlands of British Columbia to reduce the risk and severity of wildfires. By combining fire spread and carbon budget models, we will evaluate different forest management strategies to lower fuel loads and greenhouse gas emissions. Partnering with Forsite Consultants Ltd. will help us apply […]

The partner sells smart swim goggles. The goggles measure several variables such as stroke, swim speed, and heart rate, and project the information into the goggle lens to provide real-time feedback to the swimmer. The challenge the partner faces is to scientifically validate the instrumentation and application of the goggles to assisting swimmers in optimizing […]

We have developed our sensing suite, which we use to acquire, record, retrieve, and process the in-situ process data during the wire-arc additive manufacturing process or welding process. The objective of this project is to contact the industry and do customer discovery and surveys from the industry to tailor and tweak the sensing suite to […]

We address the limitations and hazards of current wildfire detection and suppression methods, focusing initially on Alberta’s boreal zone. Alberta Wildfire uses aircraft, helicopters, specialized equipment, and trained personnel, but these methods have critical drawbacks. Crewed aerial systems cannot operate 24/7, leaving gaps when fires can go undetected. Additionally, deploying personnel is expensive and not […]

Le virus du fruit rugueux brun de la tomate est un virus émergent se propageant à travers le monde depuis sa détection en 2014. Celui-ci cause un brunissement ainsi qu’une déformation des fruits, menant à un déclassement de ceux-ci. Ce virus cause des pertes économiques significatives pour les producteurs de tomates en raison de sa […]
