L’impact de la phénologie de la neige et de la glace sur la qualité de l’eau des lacs alpins

Le projet vise à mieux comprendre les effets d’un couvert de neige et de glace sur le fonctionnement des lacs alpins (en termes
de biogéochimie). Dans ce contexte, l’étudiant réalisera un état de l’art des connaissances, deux échantillonnages de terrain avec
analyses complémentaires en laboratoire. Un échantillonnage l’hiver au niveau des lacs des Chic-Chocs afin de caractériser la
chimie de la glace, de la neige et de la colonne d’eau des lacs sous-jacents. L’autre, l’été suivant afin de pouvoir relier les impacts
des conditions hivernales sur le fonctionnement des lacs pendant les saisons suivantes (ouverture sur un projet plus global).
Résultats attendus :
Analyse préliminaire des données de terrain de 30 lacs de montagne (ampleur, composition chimique de la neige et de la glace ;
propriétés physiques et chimiques de l’eau sous la glace ; morphométrie hydrologie des lacs ; propriétés du bassin versant), avec
rapport apportant des éléments de réponses à la problématique du projet.

EarlyDetect: a cloud based mental health screening tool

Mental illness is the leading cause of disability in the world. Diagnosing mental health syndromes have proved challenging for clinicians. This has led to delay in diagnosis or misdiagnosis. Furthermore, the majority of individuals who have mental disorders have more than one condition (co-morbid), which are essential to screen and diagnosis early to achieve symptom remission and achieve full functional recovery. Recognizing the need for an effective assessment tool to foster early detection of mental health disorders, the goal of this Mitacs project is to launch EarlyDetect (ED), which has a machine learning based scoring engine integrated with a cloud based API. ED will improve health outcomes of numerous Canadian patients, improve wait times to receive appropriate treatment, as well as benefit Canada economically by promoting health care efficiency. It will also advance Canada technologically in pace with other international peers on precision mental health applications.

Drawing and Diagnoses: Therapeutic Arts in Refresh Wellness App

Barriers to mental health care include distance, cost, wait times and more (Moroz, Moroz & D’Angelo, 2020). Canadian mental health systems are also becoming increasingly burdened with demand. To prevent ever-increasing wait list times, mental health care systems require a focus on preventative care. A stronger prevention system, one that supports Canadians so they learn to support themselves, will reduce the stress placed on crisis centers, professional waitlists, and individuals with nowhere to turn.
The current project will explore concepts of therapeutic arts as a tool for preventative care while addressing the lack of digitalized options for visual arts-based interventions. It also will further explore the ability and market need to regard art as a tool for developing emotional intelligence.

Inventory Management Internship

Vivigro is currently developing and implementing a customized inventory management system which will allow us to track inventory movement throughout all of its warehouse locations, trace landed and other costs, and will allow Vivigrow to easily report, both internally and externally, on fully costed inventory. This new inventory management system will be integrated with Vivigro’s existing fertilizer blending system, COMCO, allowing real time data flow to update the inventory management system. This will significantly reduce the amount of time required to input consumption and production data, reduce the risk of human error in data entry, and substantially reduce reporting lag times.

From Waste to Hydrogen: Assessment of Alternative Hydrogen Production Processes

With the Focus around the world shifting to net-zero emissions as a solution to the climate crisis, countries are
stepping up with hydrogen strategies and committing large amounts of funding to make hydrogen a reality.
However, the main problem remains: On the supply side, hydrogen currently cannot be offered competitively
with Diesel/NG prices, and on the demand side, technologies, such as fuel cells, are not widely commercially
available yet to offtake hydrogen on a large scale. Hydra Energy offers to link supply and demand by engaging
with large chemical providers to take off their by-product hydrogen. At the same time, Hydra works with trucking
fleets to convert their trucks to run on a diesel/hydrogen co-combustion to offtake the hydrogen and reduce
GHG emissions from freight transportation. Beyond by-product hydrogen from chemical processes, various
alternative technologies can make use of a waste feedstock (wood, food, municipal, etc.) to produce hydrogen in
a cost-effective matter. The goal of this proposed research project is to explore these alternative sources of
hydrogen.

Understanding the drivers and strategies of entrepreneurial exit

Harris Computer provides mission critical software solutions for the Public Sector, Healthcare, Utilities and Private Sector verticals throughout North America, Europe, Asia and Australia. One of the focus of Harris is to acquire businesses with growth potential, manage them well and then build them for the future. The challenge of this acquisition process is to understand different motives and routes of entrepreneurial exit, based on which viable and innovative strategies are formulated to optimize the growth potential and competitiveness of the acquired businesses. Exit has profound psychological implications for the entrepreneur, disrupts work routines and increases employee insecurity, and changes the competitive balance in the industry. The failure to take into account different exit patterns and their associated underlying reasons would cause tremendous negative impacts on not only acquired firms and their stakeholders but also Harris’ strategic objectives and reputation.

Design and development of a mobile robotic platform for performing automated visual inspection on pipelines, automobiles, and infrastructures in extreme environmental conditions

An early damage/anomaly detection on objects such as: pipelines, turbomachinery, vehicles, and structural elements can save thousands of dollars that goes in the repair and maintenance costs. Various contemporary robotic inspection technologies exist that aim to solve this problem. However, a challenge arises when the objects of interest are present in remote regions with extreme/harsh environmental conditions that are unsuitable for humans. Such environments can potentially pose a threat to human safety. Therefore, a fully autonomous mobile robotic solution is needed to perform inspection procedures directly on the object. The objective of this research project is to design and develop an autonomous mobile robotic platform that has the ability to withstand every kind of extreme condition such as; strong winds, snow storms, extreme high and low temperatures, nuclear decommissioning sites, and uneven road surfaces. This mobile robotic solution will aim to not only decrease inspection costs and overall maintenance costs but also deliver high quality inspection procedures within minimal time. Moreover, the robot will be able to operate autonomously and thus, there will be no concern about the safely of the human workers.

Successful schools: Building a better measure of success

There are two interconnected processes required for this project to succeed: a process of consultation and engagement of the public and stakeholder groups, and the more technical development of measures. Both areas involve key methods for applied research and knowledge mobilization within the social sciences. CONSULTATION AND ENGAGEMENT To succeed, the Broader Measures project must reflect the aspirations and expectations of the public and the professionals responsible for the provision of education. The strategy is founded on two related assumptions: All consultation and educational engagement efforts must (A) build interest in and support for the assessment tools to be developed and their use both by professionals and the public, and (B) help identify and address any concerns or issues that arise over the course of the project. The primary OBJECTIVES of the engagement and consultation process are to: A. Introduce Broader Measures of Success as a significant opportunity to better represent the contributions that elementary and secondary schools should make to the individual and to the society. B. Engage a variety of audiences in the project in a manner that builds interest and support. Anticipated audiences include students, parents, Ontario’s Ministry of Education, teacher federations, business leaders, and media.
