As drones continue to gain traction as a tool for cargo delivery, engineers and regulators must seek new ways to mitigate the risk of developing ever larger aircraft. This project will conduct aerodynamic simulations and performance analysis of a pre-certified recreational aircraft that has been hypothetically retrofitted to operate as a cargo drone. Using Computational […]

As Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) become more ubiquitous, a special class of UAVs known as Unmanned Aerial Gliders (UAGs) promises to offer more efficient flight by using atmospheric energy to remain afloat. In order to facilitate the usage of UAGs in various applications, researchers have developed algorithms which allow for autonomous flight of UAGs. The […]

A textile-based solution to remotely and continuously monitor COVID-19 symptoms Myant proposes to create a wearable textile solution with a compact electronic module able to record ECG, breathing movements, chest motion and sound, skin temperature, and blood pulse (oximetry and pulse shape to estimate blood pressure) in order to monitor key physiological metrics for individuals […]

The Ontario Dental Association requires the time of three hours between two clients in a dental office to prevent the transmission of COVID-19; however, this strict guideline poses a great challenge to the economics of dental business and the recovery of Ontario economy. The results of this study will help understand the COVID-19 transmission in […]

NIRS is a popular secondary analytical method that is being used for non-destructive quantification of compounds and mixtures in the agriculture and agri-food sector. The study aims to estimate the starch content (amylose and amylopectin) in rice samples with NIRS. A dataset is being established by obtaining NIRS spectra (400 to 2500 nm, 0.5 nm […]

Science and engineering companies rely on powerful computers to simulate, in virtual space, the performance of new processes and products. The computer architectures of these systems are evolving to provide even faster virtual solutions with less energy requirements. This hardware evolution impacts software design and implementation of simulation tools such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). […]

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become a key player in the growing need for electric vehicles (EVs). State-of-the-art LIBs, using liquid electrolytes, still have significant challenges in their safety, lifespan, and energy density. Accordingly, solid-state lithium metal batteries (SSLBs) have recently been attracting increasing research and industrial attention due to their ability to overcome intrinsic disadvantages […]

Since Amazon robotics expanded the use of drones to package deliveries to customers, drone applications have been expanded to many industries along with its ability to perform various tasks autonomously. The fundamental technology of drones’ autonomy comes from perceiving its surrounding, creating its own map based on onboard sensors and estimate its location within the […]

Membrane based energy recovery ventilation (ERV) is now a key component of most energy efficient modern buildings. ERVs improve the indoor air quality of buildings through ventilation and reduce the energy cost of ventilation by using building exhaust air to pre-condition fresh building supply air. In cooling conditions heat and humidity are removed from the […]

Ekona Power Inc is developing a technology to convert natural gas into H2, electricity and a pure CO2 stream. The CO2 stream will them be removed using underground carbon sequestration. Their approach uses two processes. The first uses pyrolysis to convert natural gas to hydrogen and solid carbon. The second uses a fuel cell to […]

As transportation to space becomes more accessible, space debris pose increasing risk to operational satellites. Objects orbiting the earth can have a detrimental effect on space travel and threaten the spacecraft and its personnel. These objects can be anything from active and passive satellites, orbital debris, space junk, asteroids and fragments from their disintegration and […]
