One of the greatest risks posed by climate change are potential impacts on water resources. However, humans modify the terrestrial water cycle not only through climate-warming greenhouse gas emissions, but also by perturbing land cover through changes in land use. The goal of this project is to compare the role of changes in land use […]

Afin de détecter les fuites potentielles de pétrole, diesel et essence à proximité des oléoducs, l’entreprise Flyscan propose de survoler en avion les régions d’intérêt et d’effectuer l’acquisition d’images hyperspectrales et d’images optiques RGB, à partir desquelles il est possible de détecter la présence d’hydrocarbures liquides au sol. Pour l’instant, ces images sont analysées avec […]

This project will support Propel Impact in engaging and building relationships with organizations advancing impact investing and impact measurement in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Le projet de recherche vise à optimiser le procédé de carbonatation minérale développé par l’INRS et mis en oeuvre par l’entreprise Sigma Devtech. II s’agit d’un procédé permettant d’extraire du magnésium à partir des résidus miniers de serpentine et de stocker le CO2 sous forme de carbonates de haute pureté. Afin d’améliorer la rentabilité du […]

The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is a key component in the Mobile Next Generation Network, which is used by telecommunications operators throughout the world to provide access to multimedia and broadband services. As these services become more sophisticated, and as the number of clients rises drastically, it is increasingly expensive to install and operate a […]

Malgré les nombreuses avancées dans le traitement du cancer, cette maladie reste la première cause de mortalité au Canada. Une voie prometteuse de traitement est l’immmunothérapie dont le but est de moduler le système immunitaire afin de renforcer sa capacité à identifier et détruire les cellules tumorales. Dans ce contexte, il est possible d’utiliser des […]

The term Web of Things (WoT) refers to the concept of integrating resources and interactions involving devices, data, and people on the web. WoT features interactions as first class entities above and beyond traditional web resources and, thus, enabling applications with substantial context awareness, personalization, and automation. Lively is a new open source approach to […]

Over 4 months we will work to scope and structure global innovation efforts in one, and potentially more, key areas to tackle large sustainability challenges. The areas are SF6, plastics (with a focus on bio plastics) and agricultural innovation (including soil carbon measurement). A large focus will be on innovation to tackle the challenge of […]

Line-commutated Converters (LCC) have been used for over half a century due to their robustness as well as high power capacity. However, they can face challenges from voltage and frequency disturbances in the case of terminating in a very weak ac network. Such systems use synchronous condensers (SCs) to provide voltage and frequency support at […]
