Icebergs pose serious risks to subsea infrastructures operating in the Arctic and Atlantic regions. They can damage pipelines, cables, and foundations by scraping the seabed or directly colliding with offshore structures like floating systems and platforms. To prevent such impacts, icebergs are towed away from the facilities using specialized vessels and equipment. However, this process […]

With the advances of medical imaging, cardiac images have posed great challenges in processing and analysis due to the large amount of data generated. Dynamic Computer Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images, also referred to as 4D (3D+time) imaging, for example, have great capacity for screening, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of cardiac diseases. […]

The intern will conduct research to analyze subsurface conditions at a potential geothermal site by utilizing fracture assessment and optimization techniques, along with analytical solutions. In terms of fracture assessment, the intern will identify the most effective methods and parameters for stimulating the reservoir to boost productivity. This process is crucial for ensuring the economic […]

In order to make the drilling tools more efficient and easier to control, some methodologies inspired by former researches are used in designation of the control system for electrical submersible pumps working underground. This system will be consuming less energy than former ones since the thermal loss is reduced, which would be realized via a […]

This project will determine if underground detention systems provide an equivalent level of service for stormwater treatment as stormwater management ponds. This will be achieved through water quality measurements collected from a StormTrap system and through the development of a pollutant-transfer model. The intern will work with both the Toronto Region Conservation Authority and Con […]

It is important that heart failure patients monitor their condition at home. We are exploring devices that can improve the self-monitoring required of patients and send this information back to their doctors. A technology that we are testing is ballistocardiography (BCG). BCG is a mechanical vibration generated by your heart and is recorded using a […]

Le développement de produits et l’introduction de nouvelles technologies dans la production des produits récréatifs se sont considérablement accélérés chez BRP, Leader mondial dans la conception et la fabrication de produits récréatifs. Cette cadence de croissance a généré un niveau élevé de complexité dans l’organisation. Le département de stratégie manufacturière est présentement à la recherche […]

In this research project, we plan to explore potential uses of generative AI models, such as ChatGPT, to enhance financial modeling. Trusting financial advice from Generative Pre-Trained Transformer (GPT) models is a challenge due to model “hallucinations”, necessitating careful verification and validation of the output. Therefore, we plan to take an alternative approach. We would […]

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

Riverbank erosion is a major concern around the world, caused by high river floods. Occurrences of intense floods in rivers, attributed to climate change, such as the recent (July 2023) incidents of cloudbursts and accompanying riverbank washouts in several parts of northern (Himalayan) India provide glaring examples. Protection against riverbank erosion is, therefore, a formidable […]

Atherosclerosis is a chronic disease of the cardiovascular system that involves hardening of arteries due to the deposition of plaque [1]. Atherosclerotic lesions in different locations may lead to a variety of diseases such as Coronary Artery Disease, Cerebrovascular Accident and Peripheral Artery Occlusive Disease which should be detected at early stage [2, 3]. To […]

Le projet vise à modéliser la consommation énergétique d’une grande tour à bureaux à Montréal à l’aide d’un logiciel dans le but de simuler sa performance avant et après l’application de différentes mesures permettant de réduire l’intensité énergétique et l’empreinte carbone. Ce projet sera utile pour le client qui obtiendra des pistes de réflexion pour […]
