AI-Enabled Satellite Communication Networks

Due to the fast mobility of LEO satellites, ground users need to switch between LEO satellites frequently to keep the connection with the satellite network. The process of switching between satellites is called the handover process. Every handover process is associated with signalling overhead, processing delays, and data packet losses. The optimization of the handover process is crucial for an efficient and resilient satellite network. In this regard, intelligent resource allocation can reduce the handover rate while maximizing the network utility and ensuring the satisfaction of users. Hence, the first sub-project aims at jointly optimizing the resource allocation and handover management processes in future satellite networks. Various ML-enabled techniques will be developed to implement these resource allocation-based mobility management schemes in an intelligent and computationally efficient manner.
Data packet routing is the process of relaying and forwarding a data packet originated from a source to a certain destination. In satellite networks, the source and destination points are distant terrestrial endpoints/users located thousands or tens of thousands of kilometers away from each other. TOBECONT’.

Inventaire des insectes ravageurs et bénéfiques du saule à croissance rapide

Le saule à croissance rapide (SCR) est une plante pérenne qui est depuis récemment exploitée comme source bioénergétique au Québec et elle commence à connaitre une certaine notoriété en phytoremédiation grâce à sa capacité à décontaminer les polluants des terrains sur lesquels elle est implantée. Cependant, comme les plantations de SCR deviennent de plus en plus abondantes, il devient important de s’intéresser à une des problématique fréquente: les problèmes liés aux insectes ravageurs. Ces insectes peuvent fortement diminuer les capacités photosynthétiques des plantes et réduire leur biomasse, leur efficacité et donc leur rentabilité. Comme peu d’information est disponible sur leur prévalence au Québec dans la culture du SCR et qu’il existe encore moins d’informations quant aux dépistages et aux méthodes de lutte, il est nécessaire d’étudier la guilde de ravageurs et d’insectes auxiliaires dans le but de déterminer les insectes problématiques à cette culture et de proposer des méthodes de dépistage et de lutte efficace afin d’assurer la rentabilité de cette culture

Intelligent Health and Performance Monitoring of Infrastructures

Aging and degradation of infrastructures pose significant safety concerns, especially in light of increased use of these structures. The economic downturn further exacerbates such concerns, especially for critical structures such as bridges, where replacement is infeasible, and maintenance and repair are expensive. The significance of implementing long-term structural health monitoring systems for large-scale bridges, in order to secure structural and operational safety and issue early warnings on damage or deterioration prior to costly repair or even catastrophic collapse, has been recognized by bridge administrative authorities. Developing a long-term monitoring system for a large-scale bridge—one that is really able to provide information for evaluating structural integrity, durability and reliability throughout the bridge life cycle and ensuring optimal maintenance planning and safe bridge operation—poses technological challenges at different levels, from the selection of proper sensors to the design of a structural health evaluation system.

Design, Development, and Testing of a Solar/PV-Grid-integrated EV Charger/Converter for a Pick-up Truck Tonneau

Worksport has recently launched TerraVis®, a photovoltaic (PV), folding tonneau cover, that stores solar energy into a bed-mounted Lithium batteries. The solar tonneau cover will incorporate high-efficiency monocrystalline solar panels whose cells are modular, so any dead ones can be swapped out. A battery bank installed in the bed will house modular Li-ion batteries that can store more than 2 kW of power. There will also be a mobile, breakaway power pack, with a 4.0 kW AC power inverter and two, 2.0 kW outlets. Phase 1 of this project involves realizing version 1.0 of the TerraVis®, leading to prototyping and pre-production. Thereafter, the project involves the design and development of a novel power electronic converter topology to implement version 2.0 and above of the TerraVis® tonneau infrastructure. Another objective in developing version 2.0 of the TerraVis® is to enhance PV performance using thermal interface materials.

Improving Production Management in a Modular Construction Facility Using Data Modeling and Analytics

Prefabricated construction, as an alternative to the traditional stick-built construction, has its advantages in shortening the schedules and reduce onsite construction exposure. The prefabricated construction components are often produced in offsite controlled environment and shipped to site for installation. Due to its similarity to manufacturing, prefabricated construction provides opportunities for continuous productivity improvements. Through such improvements, production data is required and critical to construct analytical models for measuring progresses. Alantra Leasing (hereinafter “Alantra”) is a New Brunswick-based modular manufacturer for mobile office trailers. In this proposed research project, the intern will work closely with the team at Alantra to develop an analytical model to analyze its ongoing production by incorporating Lean manufacturing principles. The intern will collect data at the Alantra facility and use it for modeling and validation. The outputs from this research can be used by Alantra to continuously evaluate its production, identify, and resolve bottlenecks and plan for increases production capacity.

The role of data intelligence software in assessing materiality: what is the potential and their limits?

This research project aims to determine how small and medium-sized businesses can use data intelligence software to improve reporting on their environmental footprint. The number of companies choosing to transparently report on their entire environmental and societal impacts have been increasing, including smaller businesses. As larger companies and corporates have been experimenting on the best methods and practices to report their impacts using data intelligence software to inform their stakeholders like the public and government, the smaller businesses usually face challenges in knowing the demands of their stakeholders. This study would closely examine the role played by data intelligence software for SMEs in improving their outreach to their stakeholders. This would ensure enhanced understanding between them and efficiently achieve social and environmental sustainability.

Education as a Capacity Building Mechanism to Foster Economic Development of Local Mining Communities.

This SEF/MITACS proposal seeks to develop a curriculum about mining and local economic development. The content of the curriculum is divided into two main parts: a) mining life cycle and its phases and b) the opportunities that mining activities can create to local communities. The ultimate goal in developing this curriculum is to create a workshop series that can be delivered to local community members, local leaders, aboriginal people, government representatives, etc., with the intention of building community capacity to identify and take advantage of the economic opportunities that a mining project can create. The development of this proposed mining education curriculum for communities in addition to fill a gap not fulfilled by the mining industry nor governments also becomes a business opportunity to SEF that can eventually provide its consulting services to the industry and / or communities.

Caractérisation de levures pour la production de bière faible en alcool et leur capacité à promouvoir la réduction des aldéhydes.

Les bières faibles en alcool ont souvent un goût de moût résiduel. Ce goût est causé par certains aldéhydes; des molécules qui proviennent du brassage de la bière et du touraillage du grain. Heureusement, durant la fermentation, ces aldéhydes peuvent être transformés en molécules aux arômes agréables. Ce projet s’intéresse aux différents facteurs qui peuvent maximiser cette transformation. En premier lieu, les pouvoirs réducteurs de différentes levures seront comparés. En second lieu, les conditions de fermentation seront modifiées afin de mieux comprendre la transformation des aldéhydes et les flaveurs qui en résultent. En dernier lieu, une étude qualitative sera menée sur les bières produites lors du projet. Mieux comprendre les interactions des levures et des aldéhydes et trouver des moyens de réduire leur concentration dans la bière aidera Lallemand à améliorer ses produits et développer de meilleures pratiques pour leur application.

Prédiction intelligente des défaillances dans les structures mécaniques et procédés

L’une des orientations majeures de la quatrième révolution industrielle est de rendre intelligents les systèmes de contrôle des structures et des processus industriels, par l’intégration de capteurs au cœur du procédé. L’installation d’un nombre considérable de capteurs à travers les endroits les plus à risque a permis d’obtenir des bases de données, structurées, massives et hétérogènes. Par conséquent, les stratégies de collecte de données, de leurs traitements et d’intervention doivent être continuellement à jour et fiables afin de garantir le meilleur indice de santé des machines et la prédiction la plus précise des modes défaillances. Ainsi, l’objectif principal de ce programme est le développement d’approches intelligentes d’aide à la prise de décision. Ces approches seront appliquées à des problématiques industrielles propres à chacun des partenaires. La formation du personnel hautement qualifié dans les domaines d’apprentissage automatique, de fiabilité des systèmes mécaniques constitue aussi un des objectifs de ce programme.

Development of an effective process with aid of micro-organisms and fungus for reduction of environmentally destructive effect of spill oil toward ocean ecosystem protection.

The risk of an oil spill in the marine environment always exists during offshore oil production and transportation. The oil spill can affect the marine ecosystem, including seabirds, aquatic organisms and even humans health, both directly and indirectly. The best solution to the oil spill incident is collecting the spilled oil, extracting that from the marine environment and potentially taking it back to the energy cycle. However, depending on the situation and severity of the oil spill incident, it can be partially possible or even impossible. The hydrocarbon degradation using microorganisms is a crucial step toward sustainable spill oil treatment and minimizing the spill oil footprint. This study aims to screen and select effective indigenous microorganisms such as bacteria and fungus that can decompose all types of hydrocarbon substances in crude oil.
