WP 1.1.5 – Analog, RF, and SPIC Testing On a Low-Speed Tester

This project will address the production test needs of a silicon-based high-speed photonic transceiver solution for metro-reach terabit optical modems. For this project, the partnership will be between Ciena, DA Integrated (test development contractor) and Prof. Gordon W. Roberts from McGill University (academic expert in DFT and mixed-signal design and test). The scope of this collaborative research will be to devise low-cost test techniques and DFT circuits beyond the current state-of-the art that will potentially be used in production testing, characterization, and calibration of Ciena’s next generation optical transceiver chips (>100 Gbps). Of particular interest is the need for the analog/mixed-signal/RF circuits to be tested on a digital test platform. TO BE CONT’D

An Integrated Interface for a Mixed Reality Based Medical Education System

How to build a medical education ecosystem and improve the learning outcome? Currently a medical education system based on mixed reality is missing and bad user interfaces can leave students confused and struggling instead of learning efficiently. The goal of this project is to leverage mixed reality technology, develop a medical education system, and make it easy to use. An interactive system with an integrated interface will be created, enabling real object recognition, responsive information assistance, and coordinated collaboration between users across platforms with a consistent and intuitive educational experience. This system enables users to interact with three-dimensional virtual objects in the physical world, and collaborate cross platforms of mixed reality devices, virtual reality devices, mobile devices, laptops, and desktop computers. Therefore, the complex medical concepts and deeper human structures will be seen, studied, discussed, and shared beyond the limitation of time and location, and medical students and health professionals in many areas will benefit from the system. The improvement of interfaces will greatly enhance the usability, facilitate seamless integration of mixed reality into medical education ecosystem, and accelerate mixed reality technology and innovative devices to be widely used in medical education and various fields

Gaze behavior as a novel marker for stroke recovery

The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of eye movement measures as an index of cognitive function after stroke. The development of new more revealing approaches to reveal the changes after stroke are important to better understand the process of recovery and to the develop of new treatment. This study will explore the use of eye movement as a measure of one’s ability to maintain and direct attention after stroke. This is important since the ability to control attention is fundamental to return to everyday activities and for success during the rehabilitation phase. It is expected that the measurements of eye movements will be more sensitive to the progress of stroke recovery than standard test outcomes. This information will help rehabilitation teams to better control the progress rehab sessions.

Urban agroecology : the case of Madrid

In order to meet the various challenges of food systems, significant support for agroecology can be observed, and more recently in urban areas. This project is a part of my doctoral process, in which I am interested in the rationale, trajectory, functioning and consequences of urban appropriations of agroecology. To study this phenomenon, Madrid is a very interesting case study that brings together a wide variety of agroecological initiatives.
This project aims to enrich the experience surrounding my data collection by integrating a research team directly mobilized around the questions that are at the heart of my research.TO BE CONT’D

3D Time-Domain Finite Element Modeling of Nonlinear Conductive/Ferromagnetic Thin Films

This internship project proposes to develop a new approach to model electromagnetic nonlinear thin regions, such as those encountered in various electrical devices and, for example, constituted by superconducting materials. In fact, it seeks to reduce the computational costs in simulations of devices made of thin layers and consequently allowing more realistic simulations, which is often impossible because of the particular geometry of these layers and the high costs associated to its discretization. In addition, the extremely nonlinear behavior of the materials is difficult to be represented without a fine discretization inside the thin region. Thus, with this project, we propose to represent the thin region by a lower dimension model and to include the behavior of the material mathematically on the model. Consequently, gains in terms of computational costs and faster devices design and optimization are expected. TO BE CONT’D

Croissance in situ dans un microscope électronique à transmission de germanium et d’arsenic de gallium sur couches de graphène mono et multi-feuillets

Le projet porte sur la croissance in-situ de germanium et de GaAs sur membranes de carbones (graphene). Ces croissances seront réalisées dans le microscope électronique en transmission « Nanomax ». Le but du travail est d’étudier la germination initiale de ces deux semi-conducteurs sur membrane de graphene. Il s’agira, précisément, d’étudier les processus de germination/ croissance du germanium et de l’arséniure de gallium sur des membranes de graphène suspendues. Nous étudierons les relations d’orientations entre le semi-conducteur et les couches de carbone en fonction des conditions de croissance. Avec cette étude, nous visons à déterminer le mécanisme d’interaction entre les matériaux semi-conducteurs 3D et la surface des matériaux 2D lors de la croissance cristalline mais aussi à diminuer le coût élevé des substrats non-silicium en effectuant le transfert de ces couches cristallines.

Evaluation and improvement of Streptococcus suis bacterins

Swine production is a major branch of Canadian economy. Bugs, such as bacteria, can kill small piglets or compromise their welfare, and have a major impact in swine industry performance. One well-known dangerous bacterium is Streptococcus suis, which is very difficult to control because lack of effective vaccines. Consequently, antibiotics are overused to fight this important disease with consequent increase in antibiotic resistance (i.e. the antibiotics are not anymore able to kill bacteria). It is thus important to improve control strategies, such as vaccination, to reduce the use of antibiotics and improve animal welfare. Vaccination helps to protect animals against virulent microbes, such as Streptococcus suis, by activating the immune system to combat them. Vaccines are made with the whole bacterium (or its parts) and mixed with a substance called “adjuvant” which acts as booster agent of the immune system. This project will help design the best “adjuvant” to be used in Streptococcus suis vaccination and thus improve its effectiveness.

Improving Social Justice and Economic Stewardship along the Global Value Chain: The Effectiveness of Interventions within Fragile Environments

Governments and consumers increasingly are demanding that companies take concrete action to improve environmental stewardship and social justice along their entire supply chain. In developing countries, however, this effort is hampered by lack of knowledge as to what kinds of initiatives yield positive outcomes. This research is a pilot project to develop new insights into the conditions under which local mining communities can improve their living conditions. Our interns will be directly involved in organizing and analyzing newly gathered data and they will also be working towards improving our ongoing data collection methods and the theoretical framework that underpins this much needed effort. The partner organization, IMPACT, will benefit from the data management and statistical management skills of the interns to derive novel insights that can be disseminated to Canadian business.

Modélisation d’un système composé d’une machine synchrone de forte puissance entraînée par un actuateur thermique

La production de l’énergie électrique nécessite des actuateurs mécaniques de grande puissance. Au Canada, la puissance mécanique provient principalement des turbines hydrauliques activées par les rivières. Cependant, dans plusieurs pays, elle provient des turbines thermiques qui utilisent de la vapeur générée par des centrales à combustibles fossiles ou nucléaires. En Amérique du Nord, plusieurs de ces machines thermiques installées dans les années 50-60 sont arrivées en fin de vie et devront être remplacées dans les prochaines années. Évidemment, la technologie qui permet le contrôle de ces machines a largement évoluée durant cette longue période et il devient important de pouvoir l’adapter aux nouvelles machines thermiques. Pour assurer une adaptation efficace, il est mandataire de bien connaître les propriétés des machines thermiques (leurs caractéristiques dynamiques ainsi que tous les éléments qui l’entoure.

Changes in the impact attenuation performance of field-used hockey helmets over time

A hockey helmet should be capable of protecting the user over the helmet’s intended life span. There is currently little evidence quantifying the changes in the impact attenuation performance of field-used hockey helmets over time.
This study will collect a large sample of field-used hockey helmets from the hockey community for impact testing. The sample is expected to include helmets over a large age range. The impact testing and subsequent statistical analysis will identify age effects over the continuum of helmet age specific to individual helmet makes/models, impact attenuation materials and the entire helmet population. This data will inform an evaluation of the expiry dates applied to helmets and guide future evaluation of helmet standards essential to continual improvement of injury reduction and prevention strategies.
