Vers une meilleure représentation des propriétés physiques de la neige arctique dans SVS2-Crocus

Cette recherche s’inscrit dans le cadre de la préparation de la future mission satellitaire canadienne Terrestrial Snow Mass Mission (TSMM), élaborée par l’Agence Spatiale Canadienne ainsi qu’Environnement et Changement Climatique Canada (ECCC) et permettra de mesurer l’équivalent en eau de la neige à l’échelle nationale grâce à un radar qui analyse la rétrodiffusion du couvert de neige. Pour que cette mission soit efficace, il est nécessaire de comprendre la microstructure de la neige arctique, particulièrement la formation du givre de profondeur qui caractérise ce type de couvert de neige. La dynamique de formation de cette couche est intimement liée au transport de vapeur d’eau par diffusion et convection au sein du couvert de neige arctique. À l’heure actuelle, le modèle SVS2-Crocus ne représente malheureusement aucune forme de transport de vapeur d’eau, comme la prise en compte de ce phénomène comporte d’importants défis numériques. L’objectif général du projet est donc de documenter l’impact de la convection sur le flux de vapeur d’eau et de développer une meilleure paramétrisation de ce processus pour mieux capturer la couche de givre de profondeur à la base du couvert de neige arctique dans le modèle SVS2-Crocus.

Printed Electronics Metasurfaces for Industrial Quality Control

This project aims to advance real-time quality control in printed and flexible electronics manufacturing through the development and simulation of resonant metasurfaces. The work supports the commercialization of the TRAQC system—an AI-driven, terahertz-based inspection platform designed for in-line defect detection and material characterization.
The research focuses on designing printable metasurface patterns made from different conductive materials and geometries to achieve a strong resonance at a particular frequency, corresponding to TRAQC’s single-frequency operating regime. Using electromagnetic simulations, the project will evaluate how manufacturing variations—such as ink conductivity, line width, and substrate type—affect resonance frequency and signal strength. The resulting simulation library will guide the fabrication of optimized structures compatible with scalable printing techniques like screen, flexographic, and inkjet printing.
By bridging advanced modeling with practical manufacturing constraints, this work will deliver validated metasurface designs and sensitivity maps tailored to industrial environments. These outcomes will strengthen TRAQC’s capacity to provide non-destructive, high-speed, and accurate quality control across the printed electronics sector—contributing to greener, more efficient manufacturing in Canada and beyond.

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.
