Thermo-hydraulic performance of Lithium Battery in extreme weather conditions

The project is part of ‘InfiniBatt’ which is a smart battery system designed and developed by Motsai. This particular task for intern students aims to investigate the thermal simulation modeling of large range temperature (-40C~50C) controlled battery systems, with an emphasis on optimizing their performance, efficiency, and safety. The study involves the development and implementation […]

Developing an Advanced Vessel Relocation Tool for Extending Subsea Riser’s Lifetime

Subsea steel catenary risers (SCR) transfer the hydrocarbons from seabed reservoirs to floating vessels for processing, storage, and eventual transportation to shore. These risers are under wave and current loads and have a limited lifetime. There is strong demand from oil and gas companies to safely prolong the operational life of steel catenary risers. “Vessel […]

Experimental and modeling approaches to optimize repetitive task analysis in the automotive industry

Despite being a significant predictor of musculoskeletal injury, mitigating muscle fatigue in automotive assembly remains a significant challenge. Administrative controls, such as job rotation and work relief, are often employed to reduce fatigue exposures, but little guidance is available on their optimal use-cases. The first objective of this project is to evaluate different relief/rotation schedules […]

Simulation of the underwater vehicle

The internship will be centred on the simulation of the dynamics of the Proto towed vehicle platform. Go Beyond will produce an initial design for the intern to work with, which will strongly resemble a torpedo-shaped AUV. The Proto simulation research will take that design and study various aspects of its dynamics. The outcome of […]

Optimisation de l’enroulement amortisseur et de l’épanouissement polaire des grands alternateurs hydrauliques

Ce projet a pour objectif d’améliorer les alternateurs que l’on retrouve dans les barrages hydroélectriques. Les travaux se concentrent sur la partie tournante de l’appareil et plus spécifiquement dans la région qu’on appelle l’épanouissement des pôles du rotor, soit la partie près de l’entrefer. Cette région de l’alternateur est le siège de phénomènes complexes qui […]
