L’objectif général de ce projet est le développement d’un nouveau moteur de positionnement de Delmia basé sur les intentions de l’usager. Ce nouveau moteur positionnera le mannequin de Delmia en tenant compte de la l’équilibre postural, de l’effort exercé par les membres supérieurs sur l’environnement ainsi que la probabilité et la répétabilité de la posture […]

This project is intended to investigate and address some of the challenges in the implementation of high quality factor and compact passive components and structures and their application in implementation of active circuit blocks in integrated circuit silicon technology at millimeter wave range of frequency. Advanced deep sub-micron silicon technologies such as SiGe and CMOS […]

The main objective of the project is to provide the Institut de l’OEil des Laurentides (IOL) with the capability of receiving patients from remote locations without requiring the patients to physically come to the IOL. A remote diagnostic tool would allow the IOL to improve the comfort of patients as well as expand its activities […]

The evermore increasing complexity of gold ores is forcing operations to seek alternative gold leaching reagents to the traditional use of cyanidation. At the Barrick Goldstrike mine, the implementation of a non-toxic thiosulfate leaching process is about to become an industrial reality. With modification to the existing infrastructure and leaching circuit, this new process allows […]

Autoclave treatment of refractory sulfide gold ores oxidizes minerals, such as pyrite, containing gold that cannot be recovered through conventional cyanidation. Oxidation liberates the gold by putting iron into solution. At high temperature and pressure, the dissolved iron tends to precipitate. A problematic iron precipitate that may form is basic iron sulfate (BFS). In the […]

The current EyesIQ system has a few limitations in terms of performance and accuracy:To be able to stitch images from a 2D microscope slide, the 2D position from one image to another needs to be calculated. This process is called image registration. However, inaccuracy in the image registration algorithm introduces a slight error in calculated […]

The research involved in this internship focuses on the performance and integrity of HTML5. In terms of performance, the intern will design and implement a set of tests that will be used to analyze the performance of HTML5 applications. These tests will focus on measuring the computational performance, network performance, as well as rendering performance […]

The proposed accelerate project seeks to assess a non-destructive means for flagging failed welds in bandsaw blades in real time. The main challenge is to evaluate the correlation between the welding parameters and the properties (including microstructural and mechanical properties) of the final welds. Statistical modeling and different data analysis algorithms may be used in […]

This project focuses on the conversion of renewable resources to fuels, and thereby trains and educates highly qualified and globally aware personnel. The research involves demo-scale testing and optimization at GreenField Ethanol, laboratory experimentation, simulation and modeling, and overall economic process evaluation. The experimental work will be complemented by numerical and analytical modeling. A mobile […]

Dans un cadre éducatif, les procédés industriels sont rarement accessibles pour effectuer tests. Le recours à des outils de simulation de modèles dynamiques de ces procédés est souvent une solution pour permettre l’étude de ces procédés. Le réalisme de ces simulations est étroitement lié à la précision des modèles utilisés. Le présent projet vise à […]

The automotive industry is striving towards greater fuel efficiency, and one of the ways in which it is trying to achieve this is through light weighting. The use of aluminum alloys in engine blocks to reduce weight is part of the solution for better fuel efficiency. However, the automotive sector is always striving for innovation […]

This project will design an Apiary Management System to control and study environmental conditions that affect beehive health and honey production. Several efforts will be undertaken in developing this intelligent hive concept. In-hive environmental sensors will be implemented and thermal backplane will be developed to regulate the temperature within the hive. Sensors will be installed […]
