The objective of this internship is to imbibe and develop a business plan for the diversification of the organization. Oak Transit plans to do this through defining its future business activities, and readiness to enter the future while supplementing the local community’s perpetuity to sustain in these unprecedented times. This is to be accomplished by […]

Tackling climate change is a complex task, one that depends on transformation of different sectors. Maritime shipping is the transmission belt of the global economy and continues to account for the majority of imports and exports. It is recognized as an energy-efficient mode of transportation compared to road and air transport. Yet, maritime transport has […]

Vehicles rely on small computers located in various places. The electronic signals sent between these computers must be dependable. However, currently these signals can easily be hacked which threatens the vehicle and the people in and around it. A project is underway, involving Akimbo Technologies Inc., Solana Networks Inc., and the Carleton University Applied Dynamics […]

ShipHaul Logistics aims at developing an Intelligent Freight Services platform towards the digitization, integration and optimization of freight management. The proposed project is the first step to provide the foundations and infrastructure and kickstart the development of the envisioned platform. To this end, we will emphasize evaluation, testing and comparative studies concerning the efficiency and […]

Les interventions des plongeurs-scaphandriers aux abords des barrages hydro-électriques nécessitent la plus grande vigilance afin d’assurer leur sécurité. Au-delà des difficultés ordinaires rencontrées en plongée, les interventions aux abords de ces structures présentent de réels risques de courants puissants et très localisés dus au phénomène de Delta P (différence de pression). Celui-ci est capable d’emporter […]

La récolte d’énergie (“energy harvesting” ou “energy scavenging”) a connu une croissance importante au cours des dernières années. C’est le processus de récupération de l’énergie (voir Figure 1) des sources externes (solaire, thermique, éolienne, acoustique, mécanique/cinétique, etc.) et de conversion en électricité utile à petite échelle. Dans l’industrie aéronautique en particulier, la conversion d’énergie vibratoire […]

Currently Bombardier Aerospace uses the Doublet Lattice Method (DLM), incorporated into a structural solver, to perform aeroelastic calculations such as flutter. This method is able to provide very good results in the subsonic regime, but looses accuracy in the transonic regime due to the high non linearity of the flow. A methodology was developed where […]

PidgeonBox is currently located in 3 Skytrain stations across the lower mainland and at the beautiful UBC campus. PigeonBox has also added a PigeonBox Delivery service, where we are helping local retailers fulfil their local deliveries. PigeonBox is looking for a Marketing […]

Blaise Transit seeks to grant public transit agencies the ability to replan their bus lines in real-time based on requests made by riders using the Blaise app. The main objective of this project is to design and implement algorithms ensuring this business goal can be achieved, namely by continuously improving Blaise’s current routing algorithm.

Combustion continues to be the major source of power for electricity, transportation, and material processing. Modem day combustion devices such as automobile engines rely on computer simulations for analysis and optimization of geometry or operating conditions. Combustion problems that are solved to perform such simulations are described by complex multi-scale non-linear mathematical equations that entail […]

The goal of the project is to research and develop computer vision algorithms, software, and specialized hardware for the analysis of mixed traffic at intersections. Road users will be detected and classified as motor vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles. Road users will be geo-located within a 3D model of the intersection, tracked and classified according to […]
