This project is associated to the creation of a circular economy around styrene-based plastics such as polystyrene, acrylonitrile-styrene copolymer (SAN) and ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) terpolymer. Polystyvert has developed a technology that transform ABS post-consumer materials that come from electronics, car parts, toys ect. in a recycled SAN (rSAN) of high purity. This solvent-based technology is green […]

Multidisciplinary automated design-optimization (MDO) is a rapidly growing field of interest in sectors as diverse as architecture, engineering, science, and more. Often the computational cost of doing such optimization can be staggeringly high, requiring hundreds of computers connected through high-performance networks with complex custom designed software to support it. To address these problems, we propose […]

Advancements in the development of new materials suitable for structural applications are strongly influenced by the understanding of the governing deformation mechanisms. While these deformation mechanisms are mostly understood in simpler crystal structures of the basic metals, their fundamental understanding in complex crystals, which are frequently present in commercial alloys is still lacking. In the […]

Ce projet a pour objectif de développer un système d’intelligence artificielle avancé capable de détecter et de classifier les baleines dans des images capturées par un drone équipé d’une caméra thermique. Pour atteindre cet objectif, il utilise des techniques de pointe telles que les réseaux neuronaux convolutionnels (CNN), la segmentation d’images, l’extraction de caractéristiques et […]

Le projet de recherche vise à étudier comment les actions liées à la mise en œuvre et au développement des pratiques d’intelligence d’affaires et d’analytique (BI&A) peuvent créer de la valeur commerciale au sein des petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) manufacturières dans le contexte de l’industrie 4.0. Grâce à une approche méthodologique mixte combinant des […]

Engineers that design and enhance buildings widely rely on computer simulations to understand wind flows. Wind flows around buildings can affect human safety, comfort, structural safety, and the surrounding environment. Therefore, accurate and fast simulation of urban wind flows is critical to ensure safe, comfortable, and sustainable designs. If architectural engineers have access to a […]

L’entreprise se concentre sur la mise en œuvre de ses inventions dans des applications ayant un fort impact social et économique. L’entreprise a […]

AWL-Électricité travaille actuellement au développement d’un chargeur sans fil pour la mobilité en utilisant une technologie de couplage capacitif résonant. Dans le but de fabriquer et de lancer un premier produit sur le marché, AWL-E cherche à développer un système de communication entre l’émetteur, le récepteur et une interface. Le but est de faire de […]

Les turbines hydrauliques dans les barrages sont fabriquées en acier inoxydable martensitique. Cet acier contient du Chrome, du Nickel et moins de 0.06% de Carbone. Notre étude se concentrera sur trois types de cet acier avec différente teneur carbone. Afin de ne mettre en valeur que l’effet du carbone, on leur fait subir des traitements […]

SFU will be collaborating with partners of a supercluster on the Continuous Connected Patient Care (CCPC) Platform, which is being developed to provide safe, responsive, and high-quality outpatient care at home. We will be working directly with our partner, Medtronic Canada. SFU’s will focus on the research, development, and testing of medical grade wearable sensor […]

The future of energy supply in Ontario is uncertain. We are faced with an aging nuclear fleet and pressure to avoid future energy generation near communities. Building demands are a strain on energy supplies. A solution is to reduce building energy needs while providing sufficient distributed energy generation on a community-scale. A net-zero energy (NZE) […]

Robotics will transform the construction industry in the next decade, yet Canada is lagging in producing the highly qualified professionals needed to support that transformation. With a high percentage of the construction workforce retiring in the next five years, Canada must find ways to integrate robotics into the processes of design and fabrication of our […]
