Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machines use radiowaves and large magnets to safely produce pictures from the insides of the body. The radiowaves are emitted and detected by special antennas that surround the body. Most MRI scanning involves measuring of water in the body. But other atoms, like sodium, can also be seen too. This work […]

Sodium is a chemical ion which is essential for a healthy brain. The body naturally regulates its concentration inside and outside of cells through normal metabolism. Disruptions in this intricate balance can be caused by various neurological disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, concussion, or Alzheimer’s disease. In order to provide personalized medical care, a “big-data” […]

An MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scanner is a machine that uses magnets and radio waves to take pictures of the inside the human body without needing to use surgery. An MRI scanner is used to look at things like the brain, liver, heart, and other organs in your body. The scanner uses a “coil” placed […]

Recently, more researchers and developers are looking towards HTML5 mobile applications as a solution for targeting multiple devices and platforms. This is because the browser is becoming the default platform and its de facto standards are HTML5 and JavaScript. In the enterprise, compelling HTML5 mobile web applications that promise to offer the same functionality as […]

“By being moldable, durable, light, and inexpensive plastic packaging has seen a rapid growth in the use and its disposal is becoming a planetary challenge. Besides sustainable production and consumption globalized trade in waste plastics represents a significant option towards a circular economy. China, who so far represented the greatest importer of this material, recently […]

Leukemia, lymphoma and other forms of blood cancers are still largely diagnosed every year in Canada. These diseases constitute the second leading cause of cancer related death in young adults and the sixth in adult. The five-year survival rates still range between 42% and 85%. Currently, the main treatment is a stem cell transplantation which […]

Biocrusts are soil crust communities made up of drought and cold tolerant soil dwelling biological communities. Biocrusts are predominant in landscapes inhospitable to vascular plants, such as deserts and tundra. This project will initiate and promote development of biocrusts on the Gibraltar mine tailings. The aim is to utilize the function of biocrusts in stabilizing […]

Today, physiotherapy balls or physioballs play an essential role in treating disability or body damages such as neck, waist, knee and so on. Despite their wide range of applications and importance, it is difficult to monitor the damaged member and propose continuous treatment in the presence of a physiotherapist or physician. This causes several problems […]

Ce projet s’insère dans un contexte où la densification urbaine est une préoccupation grandissante afin de réduire l’étalement urbain et ainsi s’aligner avec les principes du développement durable. Il vise à concevoir une procédure automatisée permettant de récupérer et d’intégrer les informations nécessaires pour cartographier le potentiel de lotissement de secteurs urbains déjà bâtis ou […]

Virtual environments represented by multibody system models play an important role in many applications. Adding the possibility of users directly interacting with such environments via physical touch using haptics can significantly enhance the usability and range of application of simulated environments. In this project we particularly target two main objectives: (1) the multirate-simulation and hatics […]
