Based at Montréal, Canada, Edgehog specializes in anti-reflection and other light management solutions for displays and lighting applications. Their nanostructuring technology aims to enable full display readability from all angles in direct sunlight and reduced power consumption through lowered screen brightness. As their current technology proofs the concept at lab scale, further research is needed […]

The existing model for applications and services on the internet is a centralized client server model where user information is under the control of the service provider. As such as centralized model, albeit cost-efficient and easy to maintain, has created dire consequences for humanity. Hence, for the proposed research project, we aim to provide tools […]

Nowadays, almost any company in Canada in operation heavily relies on software solutions to improve their productivity. However, they are often facing the problem of having too many options to choose from for the software best fit for their needs. Decision support systems (DSS) help enterprises to take significant business decisions, such as finding the […]

The intern will work with a multi-disciplinary research team from architecture, civil engineering, mechanical engineering, biology, business development and materials research in the design development phase of a project to create a bio-mass panel prototype from cellulose (hemp biomass). As the most abundant organic polymer on the planet, cellulose is currently emerging as a sustainable […]

As one of the first countries to legalize cannabis, Canada is at the forefront of the cannabis research and technology. While there are a number of medical applications for Cannabis that have been used for a number of years, these treatments require patients to either smoke dried cannabis, or use cannabis extracts that can include […]

This project investigates the use of Web Standards to enhance performance of HTML5 & JavaScript applications as a means to ensure rich engaging interactions for remote clients that are using low bandwidth connections with high latency and frequent interruptions.

While Android is a very popular platform and represents the fastest growing segment in the smartphone and tablet space, we see all kinds of different android platforms emerging. Thus, we not only have the problem of having different android operating systems, we also have the problem that vendors are able to customize the android operating […]

Currently, the service provided by GRAD4 allows buyers to upload their designs for quotes from the suppliers. However, there is no initial manufacturability check for buyers to evaluate their parts before submitting their quotes. Buyers may get feedback from the suppliers, which indicates that their parts are not able to be manufacturable after a several-days […]

The project consists in developing a design procedure for beam-column-bracing connection using welded end plates. This type of connection is simpler to fabricate, however, at present, the design standards do not specifically provide for their design calculations.

Le secteur du transport représente le plus important contributeur d’émissions de gaz à effet de serre (Hoornweg et al., 2011; United Nations, 2020). Parmi l’ensemble des moyens de transport (routier, aérien, maritime), c’est le transport routier qui pèse le plus dans la balance en matière de quantités de CO2 émises dans l’atmosphère. Dans une démarche […]

A review of current literature will be used to develop an enhanced record of knowledge on the topic of lost fishing gear in British Columbia; specifically looking at the socio-economic and ecological impacts, regionally applicable case study solutions, best practice framework recommendations, and current policies on environmental management of marine debris in Canada. Results will […]

The production of biogas via the anaerobic digestion of organic waste is a growing industry in Canada. One benefit of this approach is that the resultant organic waste (digestate) can be dewatered and used as fertilizer; however, the removed water fraction remains rich in organic compounds and must be adequately treated before being discharged from […]
