Machine learning model for corrosion detection and assessment for pad mounted equipment

Corrosion of electrical utility infrastructure represents a major operational challenge that currently relies on labor-intensive manual inspections. This project aims to develop an automated machine learning system to detect and assess corrosion using publicly available street-level imagery, enabling frequent, low-cost monitoring across the distribution network. The proposed methodology will leverage recent advances in object detection and semantic segmentation. Upon successful development, the corrosion detection system will be integrated into EPCOR’s asset management workflow. Automated analysis of public imagery can provide frequent, low-cost monitoring to prioritize field inspections and maintenance activities. Reducing operational costs while extending asset life represents major potential cost savings for the utility industry.

Structural Health Monitoring of Rebecca Street Bridge

Cole Engineering Group Ltd. is conducting rehabilitation for the Rebecca Street Bridge (William Anderson Bridge) located in the Town of Oakville. The four-lane steel girder bridge with a composite concrete deck was constructed in 1961 over the Sixteen Mile Creek. The bridge also spans over Water Street, parking lots and a rowing club storage facility. Ryerson University, along with a graduate student proposes to engage in the Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) of the Rebecca Street Bridge using the MIRA 3D Shear Wave Tomographer. The MIRA 3D shear wave Tomographer provides three-dimensional location of flaws or regions of deterioration within structural members. This project will conducted by Ryerson University and Cole Engineering to provide the Town of Oakville with a new and effective monitoring technique and management strategy that will not only be used on this bridge, but can be implemented on virtually any bridge structure.

Game On: comment développer des productions vidéoludiques à l’ère de la cancel culture? Un projet de recherche et de formation

Après le phénomène #MeToo et les tensions associées à la cancel culture (ou « culture de l’annulation »), une prise de conscience émerge dans l’industrie du jeu vidéo à l’égard des problématiques de sexisme et de discrimination liée au genre, à l’orientation sexuelle et aux sexualités sous-représentées. Les professionnel.le.s du jeu vidéo doivent se former et adapter leurs pratiques pour plaire à un marché dont les standards et les exigences en inclusivité évoluent rapidement. L’objectif global de la présente étude est d’étudier les facteurs qui conduisent les professionnel.le.s du jeu vidéo à reproduire ou à s’écarter des stéréotypes de genre et sexuels. Au total, entre 30 à 40 professionnel.le.s ont été recrutés avec l’aide des partenaires de l’étude : la Guilde du jeu vidéo et le collectif Asylum. Les retombées de l’étude contribueront à la transformation nécessaire des pratiques créatives dans une optique de diversité et d’inclusion.
