Le projet est d’implanter une norme ISO 9001 dans une PME Québecoise, pour cela le stagiaire devra étudier l’ensemble des processus de l’entreprise, effectuer des audits internes, mener des actions correctives, former le personnel aux nouvelles procédures etc… La qualité en entreprise repose sur l’amélioration continue, le projet ne repose pas uniquement sur des audits, […]

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

Wastewater treatment plants contribute to greenhouse gas emissions through the release of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O), which are produced during various treatment processes. During biological nutrient removal in wastewater treatment, processes such as activated sludge can generate N2O (a potent greenhouse gas) during total nitrogen removal processes. Further energy consumption […]

Le projet de recherche consiste à explorer et à développer de nouvelles méthodes pour accompagner les startups spécialisées dans les technologies matérielles, appelées “hardtech”, telles que l’Internet des objets (IoT) ou les technologies énergétiques. Contrairement aux startups axées sur le développement de logiciels, les entreprises hardtech font face à des défis uniques, notamment en matière […]

Ocean industries, such as shipbuilding and offshore energy, face challenges in selecting materials that can endure corrosive environments, high pressures, and mechanical stresses. While materials like composites and aluminum offer promise, their adoption is slowed by their inherently complex and nonlinear mechanical behavior, which is sensitive to environmental conditions, as well as by the time-consuming, […]

This project is focused on the design and optimization of a helmet, the Regulated Multi-stage Air-pressurized Chambers Helmet (R-MACH), that incorporates a unique idea aimed at effectively mitigating rotational forces without compromising on weight or performance at high impact velocities. Our novel design leverages interconnected air-pressurized chambers and elastic materials, instead of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) […]

This work focuses on solar-driven hydrogen production and the valorization of glycerol into value-added chemicals using advanced photocatalysis techniques. By combining renewable energy with glycerol waste management, this research addresses two critical challenges: reducing greenhouse gas emissions through clean hydrogen production and creating a sustainable, circular economy by converting biodiesel byproducts into useful chemicals. There […]

Brain aneurysms are blisters on brain arteries caused by high blood pressure and smoking. Every 18 minutes, a brain aneurysm ruptures, leading to 1,370 deaths a day worldwide. This project seeks to develop an innovative brain implantable device to treat brain aneurysms through prototyping, lab validation, and customer discovery and feedback. The partner organization supports […]

Global navigation satellite systems have significantly improved aeronautical navigation over the past decades, providing a safe and precise means of navigating airspace. Unfortunately, recent years have seen a worrying increase in GPS interference incidents in aviation, which is alarming because GPS is crucial for modern aviation navigation and safety. GPS interference, through jamming and spoofing, […]

In recent years, lignin valorization has gained increasing attention in both academic and industrial sectors, hoping to achieve salient breakthroughs in lignin metabolism. Many studies have pointed to a promising approach using microorganisms particularly bacteria for lignin valorization through a bio-funneling approach, converting it into products of biotechnological interests. Thus, this project aims to contribute […]

This Mitacs Globalink project, part of a PhD thesis titled “Exact and Heuristic Methods for the Quadratic Knapsack Problem (QKP),” aims to develop new optimization techniques for solving the QKP, a problem with significant applications in industries like logistics, finance, and electronics. Building on prior successes, including a dynamic programming heuristic and an algorithm using […]

This research project aims to solve the problem of fragmented data in the aviation industry by developing a system that integrates and analyzes various data sources. The goal is to create dynamic dashboards that provide real-time insights into safety, compliance, and operational status for different users, such as airlines and ground service providers. The focus […]
