Design and development of a novel anthropomorphic finger with pneumatic tactile sensing
(2020-04-01)
The human hand is a tool that we rely on to conduct a vast variety of tasks, from cracking eggs to lifting boxes. Meanwhile, in an industrial setting, different tools are needed to complete specific tasks. Picking up a box ...
Energy and exergy analyses of multigenerational integrated systems with geothermal and solar energy sources
(2017-12-01)
The world population growth leads to a large demand of the different forms of energy. The challenges will be focusing on the discovery of new technologies that will satisfy to the demand and the production of energy that ...
Design and implementation of a component-based distributed system for text mining in social networks
(2016)
This report presents the design and implementation of a component-based distributed system for text mining in social networks. The system consists of three main types of components, data collection, data processing and ...
A study on regulation standard for SMRs
(2019-08-01)
The current thinking in the nuclear energy industry is favoring by small-scale Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) with improved safety and multiple applications compared to conventional large-size nuclear power plants. The ...

(2011-08-01)
Social Networking sites are being used by post-secondary institutions to engage their prospective and current student populations. The communication that results from these online interactions can be placed within the ...
How secondary schools transition into 1:1 bring your own device blended learning environments
(2017)
Many schools have implemented one device per student (1:1) programs. While the benefits of technology in education may not be fully realized until access is ubiquitous, 1:1 programs are often unsustainable. One way to make ...
