Dust and biomass debris have serious negative effects on the performance of material handling farm equipment, such as reduced efficiency, increased maintenance costs, and heightened fire hazards. However, there is a lack of understanding of dust and debris generation and dispersion within farm equipment. CNH Industrial is searching for innovative solution for dust and biomass […]

Demand for higher-capacity batteries has been rising exponentially from industries such as zero-emission vehicles, smart grids, unmanned aerial vehicles, and many others. However, current battery technology is limited by graphite anode materials, which have a low specific capacity. Furthermore, the manufacturing process of battery-grade graphites is criticized for the amount of GHG and environmental damage […]

Le projet de recherche sera réalisé sur le site de Muskrat Falls, le nouveau barrage électrique situé au Labrador. Ce projet rendra disponible, d’ici 2016, 450 000m3 de bois coupés en prévision de la construction du réservoir hydraulique. Le projet de recherche constitue à réaliser des études technico-économiques et environnementales (analyse du cycle de vie) […]

This research project aims to improve the safety and maintenance of bridges by using advanced technology and methods to predict how bridges will respond to stress due to temperature fluctuations over time. Several sensors are installed on different elements of the bridge to measure strain and temperature values every second. The data is then analyzed […]

La recherche vise à explorer des solutions pour augmenter la capacité et la résilience des infrastructures urbaines en eau face à la densification urbaine et aux changements climatiques. La densification urbaine, bien que bénéfique sur le plan environnemental, exerce une pression sur les infrastructures vieillissantes, augmentant la demande en eau potable, les rejets d’eaux usées […]

Magnetic confinement of the extremely hot plasma necessary to achieve controlled nuclear fusion has made tremendous progress in recent years towards the ultimate goal of operating as a commercially viable long-term source of energy that can greatly facilitate the decarbonization of our energy system. As part of this research effort a fusion reactor prototype is […]

The proposed research project aims to improve how information is managed for bridge construction and maintenance using advanced technology. The intern will create a system that combines Microsoft Power Apps, Power BI, and Autodesk Forge’s digital twin environment. This system will make it easier for engineers to input, store, and access important information related to […]

The proposed research project will focus on the development of novel techniques to improve the assessment of psychological functions. Current psychological tests are limited in their ability to provide quantitative information on an individual’s ability to move and interact with their environment. Many psychological tests are computer-based systems that have been developed to assess psychological […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW.

During rainfall events, it is nearly impossible to prevent water from entering into a sanitary sewer system. When this does occur, the capacity of the systems is decreased while the amount of water sent to treatment plants is increased. Current design practices do not offer any insights into the variability and other statistics characterizing this […]

The attractive physicochemical, thermal, and mechanical properties of PHAs, combined with their biodegradability and biocompatibility, make them exciting materials that can support an environmentally sustainable circular bioeconomy. In this research project, we plan to develop an extraction and purification process for recovering PHAs from bacteria. The recovered PHAs will be further characterized with a focus […]

The aims of this proposal are to enhance technical support through design processes, internal management, and quality assurance of TROES. The objective is to optimize the design process to improve customer support, strengthen collaboration between the technical support and business development teams, and implement quality assurance protocols. Additionally, the project seeks to enhance operational efficiency […]
