Integrating the gas and electrical grids for a net-zero future

Electrification connects renewable, low-carbon energy sources to the energy services that power modern society. Delivering this energy in the form of electricity is a formidable challenge, as the current electrical transmission network is not structured to deliver the amount of electrical energy needed to propel our vehicles, heat and cool our homes, and power industry […]

Automated integrity control of industrial tools using X-ray Computed Tomography (CT)

To prevent accidents and reduce risk checking the integrity of industrial tools is very vital in some industries such as oil and gas facilities, Nuclear powerplants, aerospace industries etc. These inspections are generally done manually by hand and visual inspection. Which is both time consuming and error prone. Inspection of some complex tools might require […]

Development of Environmentally Friendly Materials for 3D Concrete Printing

The construction industry is moving towards automation using 3D concrete printing (3DCP) technology. The 3DCP technology has many advantages including a positive impact on our environment. Current 3D printing material uses a large amount of Portland cement (PC) and natural resources (sand and crushed stones). These printing materials are environmentally harmful because the production of […]

Evaluating effectiveness and clinical applications of a novel expandable trocar

Trocars are specialized medical devices which are commonly used in laparoscopic surgery, a minimally invasive procedure used to examine and/or operate inside the abdominal cavity. While morbidity and complications using this approach are significantly lower than open procedures, over half of all laparoscopic complications are attributed to trocar-related injuries during entry into the body. Additional […]

Modeling disease networks using graph machine learning

Using Simmunome simulations, researchers and companies can predict the likelihood of success or failure before embarking on, or continuing with, costly clinical development programs. We focus on understanding the biological system and applying this towards higher accuracy in disease simulations. We achieve this by using different types of data from various public and proprietary sources […]

An accelerated COVID-19 diagnosis tool using interpretable deep learning

This research aims to develop an efficient machine learning model to detect COVID-19 patients by using their cough signals. The model is trained using thousands of audio recordings of cough signals from different subjects. The audio signals can be converted into spectrogram images that can be visually inspected to determine relevant regions of interest. There […]
