Superconducting Quantum Circuits Laboratory – Sydney University

This project explores how to make quantum computers more reliable by implementing how we control and measure a special kind of quantum bit called a “cat qubit.” Quantum bits, or qubits, are the basic units of information in a quantum computer, much like bits in a regular computer. This research aims to find ways to manag these cat qubits using advanced experimental tools. As a Canadian student, I will collaborate with the Sydney Quantum Control Laboratory (SQCL) at the University of Sydney’s Nano Institute to implement and test these qubits in real experiments. By working together, the Canadian and Australian teams will combine their expertise to advance quantum technology and strengthen international research partnerships.

Influence of cryogenic treatment of microstructure evolution and mechanical properties enhancement of high strength AISI D2 tool steel

Cryogenic treatment will be considered as a promising process to attain better mechanical properties and higher wear resistance. Previous researches have shown very bright perspectives in achieving significant improvement in mechanical properties and wear resistance of tool steels However, a cohesive picture about what exactly modifies microstructure at cryogenic temperature does not exist. In addition, the influences of cryogenic process parameters on mechanical properties are not documented. Hence, the main objective of this research is to develop a method accounting for operating micro-mechanisms in microstructural evolution at cryogenic temperature. In addition, the developed knowledge and documentation during this project will help the industrial partner to implement the findings into its manufacturing process. The commitment and technical and operational contribution of the company is a clear indication of its interest to increase its technological level and produce high value added products.

Evaluation of Cryogenic Machining and High Pressure Cooling in Turning of Hard-To-Cut Materials

The main objective of this project is to investigate the performance of LiN-cryogenic technologY, as well as, high pressure cooling (HPC) in turning of hard-to-cut aerospace materials. The performance of cryogenic machining and HPC will be compared to flood coolant to establish the optimum conditions for each cooling technique, in terms of material removal rate, tool life, and surface integrity (surface finish, microstructure and residual stresses). Additionally, the performance of the MQL/cryogenic combined with Laser assisted machining (LAM), as well as, combined with MQL will be studied. The study will be carried out through experimental investigation, as well as, process simulation and modeling. Process modeling, through FEM and CFD, will help understand the fundamental aspects of the cryogenic machining (CM) process, and optimize the CM setup and cutting parameters to improve the productivity and the surface integrity of machined parts

Investigation of a novel Spatially-Sensitive Transmission Detector for real-time verification of radiation beams during Radiation Therapy

Unprecedented advances have been made in Radiation Therapy during the past two decades. High precision treatment plan is generated using sophisticated optimization methods, and treatment is delivered with complex intensity modulation techniques. Due to the complexity, the burden of Quality Assurance (QA) for modern radiotherapy has also increased dramatically. Many staff and machine hours are devoted to verify the integrity and accuracy of treatment plans before the start of a treatment course; however, no verification is performed subsequently for multi-fraction treatment provided over several weeks. Therefore, a small risk may exist in the current practice of radiation therapy. The proposed research project aims to refine a previously developed real-time QA system, which will require minimal user interaction and can verify the accuracy of dose delivery for each and every fraction of radiation treatment, and hence will reduce risk to the patient. A positive outcome of this project will allow the partner organization (iRT, Germany) to manufacture and market this unique QA system in the Radiotherapy community across the globe.

Création d’un panel pharmacogénomique et élaboration d’une base de données translationnelle

À chaque année, des milliers d’individus souffrent ou décèdent suite à l’administration d’un médicament qui n’était pas approprié pour eux. Grâce aux récentes découvertes en génétique, il est maintenant possible de mieux prédire comment un individu va répondre à divers médicaments en analysant ses variations génétiques. Hors, un service de séquençage génétique n’est toujours pas disponible pour la population canadienne. Le projet de recherche du stagiaire aura pour but de développer un panel de variations génétiques présentes dans la population canadienne et qui pourra être utilisé pour mieux prédire la réponse à plusieurs médicaments couramment utilisés. Le stagiaire produira ensuite une base de données qui servira de référence pour la production d’un rapport génétique. Les travaux effectués durant le stage seront d’importants avancements dans le développement scientifique de l’entreprise partenaire, BiogeniQ. Avec ce partenariat, BiogeniQ pourra faire avancer son développement scientifique afin de mieux servir sa clientèle.

Evaluating Egress for People with Disabilities using Virtual Reality

Fire safety remains a global challenge, especially for people with functional limitations who face additional barriers when evacuating buildings during emergencies. As populations age and accessibility improves, more people with disabilities use public buildings yet evacuation designs rarely reflect their needs. This project, conducted at Lund University, forms the first phase of a broader PhD research program focused on inclusive evacuation design. This first phase will specifically develop and validate virtual reality (VR) evacuation scenarios that realistically represent building fire emergencies for diverse users, including individuals with mobility disabilities. These scenarios will later be used in controlled experimental studies to compare real-world and VR-based evacuation behaviour.
Using immersive VR allows researchers to study evacuation safely and cost-effectively, without the risks or ethical challenges of traditional physical experiments. The project will draw on principles from fire safety engineering, accessibility, and human factors to design realistic and inclusive virtual environments.
Outcomes from this phase will establish the foundation for future experimental work, advancing both the methodology and evidence base for egressibility research. Ultimately, this research aims to improve building design, policy, and evacuation planning to better protect people with disabilities during fire emergencies.

Design and Seismic performance of Ductile Steel CBFs in Canada

Steel Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) are widely used seismic-resistant systems in Canada and Europe. Despite their popularity, previous experimental and numerical investigations have revealed significant shortcomings, highlighting opportunities to refine the current seismic design provisions in both regions. The aim of this project is first to evaluate the seismic performance of moderately ductile steel CBFs designed to the Canadian standard, and then to assess the feasibility of braced frame designed with higher ductility capacities. Based on the outcomes, this project seeks to propose new design rules to improve the behaviour of these systems under seismic loads in both Canada and Europe. The improved seismic design rules are expected to reduce structural damage, economic losses, and risks to human life during major earthquakes. In addition, the proposed guidelines will enable the construction industry to achieve safer, more cost-effective, and optimized structural solutions. Moreover, the dataset and knowledge generated through this research will constitute a valuable resource for future investigations, advancing the state of the art in earthquake engineering and fostering the development of next-generation seismic design standards for steel CBFs.

High fidelity remote manipulation of microrobots by a new generation of electromagnetic control system

The proposed research intends to develop a generalized approach for the remote control of untethered effectors with less feedback required for stable control. Effectively, this approach doesn’t attempt to control effectors directly, instead aiming to control a weighted distribution of possible locations. In situations where imaging bandwidth is sufficient for stable control, the controlled distribution collapses to a single point, instead serving as a safety net in the event that an effector gets “lost” or otherwise cannot be resolved against the surrounding tissue. This approach translates seamlessly to controlling swarms of effectors, which are effectively weighted distributions of effectors themselves. To achieve this, a simplified polynomial form has been developed to express the controlling electromagnetic potentials, which serves as a simplified, universal interface across different controllers, effectors and designers. This inherent portability is a crucial step towards extending Machine Learning and AI into nanorobot design and control, allowing an initial human-designed model of field-effector and effector-environment interactions to be progressively refined by identifying patterns in the model’s random diffusion term.

Analyse comparative d’une formation en présentiel et d’une formation basée sur un jeu sérieux dans le cadre d’Hydro-Québec

Depuis quinze ans, Hydro-Québec organise des formations sur l’Initiation au code de sécurité des travaux Postes et centrales et Initiation aux risques d’induction, mise à la terre et foudre. Ces formations de trois jours s’adressent à toute personne appelée à intervenir chez Hydro-Québec. Visant un meilleur coût d’opportunité, Hydro-Québec a choisi d’intégrer une nouvelle modalité de formation constituée de deux jours de jeu sérieux suivis d’une journée en présentiel. Les jeux sérieux sont des jeux vidéo adaptés à l’enseignement. Leurs dimensions ludiques, informationnelles et communicationnelles s’articulent aux dimensions pédagogiques, didactiques et instrumentales pour en faire des instruments facilitant l’apprentissage. Cette étude consiste en une analyse comparative des deux modalités de formation, afin de permettre aux gestionnaires d’Hydro-Québec de faire un choix basé sur les résultats d’une recherche scientifique menée dans un cadre universitaire. Elle porte sur les apprentissages visés, les approches pédagogiques, l’évaluation des apprentissages et la motivation des apprenants.

Accompagnement entrepreneurial et nouveaux outils de développement du modèle d’affaires : analyse de leur utilisation comme dispositif de support dans le passage du temps R&D vers le temps client

Le passage d’un « temps long » de R&D vers un « temps client » est souvent charnière pour les jeunes entreprises et caractérisé par de nombreux « bouleversements » pour une équipe qui doit composer avec un nombre de plus en plus grand de partenaires externes qui ont tous leurs exigences vis-à-vis de la proposition de valeur et du modèle d’affaires de l’entreprise. Le projet d’étude consiste à accompagner une entreprise spécialisée dans la conception et l’opération d’une plateforme web et mobile de réaction et diffusion nommée Liveshout dans cette période de transition. L’objectif est double puisqu’il vise, d’une part, à tracer la réflexion de l’équipe à l’aide d’un processus de type ethnographique et de l’autre, à mobiliser des outils de stratégie associés au concept de BM pour permettre à l’équipe de conserver une vision partagée du projet dans un contexte où l’augmentation du nombre de parties prenantes autour de la start-up peut induire des changements importants sur son modèle d’affaires.
