Climate change has been projected to increase the frequency and severity of extreme weather (wildfire) and increase the prevalence of vector-borne infectious diseases (such as West Nile Virus and Lyme disease), which will potentially affect the insurance sectors through increased claims, financial losses, and the development of uninsurable risks. This review will follow a rapid […]

Conventional wastewater treatment processes consume a large amount of energy and produce around 32% of municipal greenhouse (GHG) emissions. Thus, advanced wastewater treatment technologies with low energy consumption and GHG emissions are highly desirable for environmental protection. Aerobic membrane bioreactor (AeMBR) has been widely used for municipal and industrial wastewater purification. However, the AeMBR technology […]

MANTECH’s has business strategy is to complete direct experimental validation of the PeCOD patented technology in strategic sites in the Western Provices, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia. In Manitoba, this includes working with the University of Manitoba at the International Institute of Sustainable Development’s Experimental Lakes Area (IISD-ELA), in Saskatchewan, the Saskatchewan Research Council […]

Thickness and surface roughness are the two main veneer quality criteria affecting material recovery, plywood glue bond quality, and glue consumption. At present, on-line green veneer thickness and surface roughness are generally not measured, which causes difficulty in assessing overall veneer quality for a better control of log conditioning and veneer peeling process. In this […]

This study will determine the applied wind loading on the steel structure of the novel Electric Vehicle Automated Parking (EVAP). It will develop proper design guidelines for steel helical piles to support EVAP considering gravitational (self-weight of EVAP and cars) and environmental loads (i.e. wind, snow and earthquake). EVAP is the world’s first integrated parking […]

Late-stage lung cancer patients with non-small cell lung cancers who demonstrate high levels of PDL1 expression have better outcomes when placed on a combined treatment program of both immunotherapy and chemotherapy. There is a subset of patients that respond well to pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy drug, alone as an initial treatment path, but there are no […]

Due to increased pressures on the restaurant industry, small operations are facing new challenges. This project will identify market trends and market leaders in those trends in online ordering, delivery, operational improvements and menu improvements to help set up operations innovation initiatives.

ASBA is looking to facilitate the current bookkeeping activities at the Zone level by bringing some bookkeeping activities internally. The bookkeeping and funding research intern will also be responsible for assisting in grant and sponsorship research to identify potential funding sources. Part of this process will include to maintain and develop partnerships with potential sponsors […]

This project aims to develop a deep learning-based computer vision system of a high-performance visual perception system to support the Autonomous Rail. The developed visual perception system enables extracting rail tracks and objects in typical rail scenes using consumer grade camera and lidar sensors mounted on a moving rail. This visual perception capacity is fundamental […]

Cardia Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) is aq pacing therapy used to reduce symptoms and mortality in patients with heart failure. It delivers a specialized pacing lead to the left ventricle (LV) through the coronary veins to re-synchronize the contraction of the heart when it has become delayed or desynchronous. However its benefit has proved to be […]

Criterium Group will support the Energy Client in transforming operations and determining the most sustainable and economic decarbonization technologies to utilize at The Asset. The Asset site has important characteristics that facilitate bridging to the new technological solutions being pursued as well as beneficial infrastructure, integration, and geological attributes that could improve the feasibility and […]

This particular project is designed to research, understand and validate opportunities to build upon our digital marketing practice. Due to the R&D nature of this project, there will be significant prototyping, testing and verifying of different marketing tactics and channels to learn what best drives business growth, and to then draft our strategic roadmap based […]
