Our bodies respond to disease and pathogens by changing the expression levels of many different genes. These changes are currently only measurable using expensive instruments and analyzed using complex software, both of which are often unavailable at low-resource and remote settings. The goal of this project is to establish a novel technology for measuring these […]

En 2019, la société des Ponts Jacques Cartier et Champlain Incorporée (PJCCI) a lancé un programme de R&D associé à la déconstruction du Pont Champlain. Réalisé dans ce contexte, le présent projet consistera à déterminer en laboratoire la teneur en alcalis solubles d’échantillons de béton prélevées dans les différentes sections du Pont Champlain fournies à […]

Dans le cadre de ce projet collaboratif avec l’industrie dans lequel sont impliqués plusieurs étudiants-chercheurs, le stage consistera en l’exploration de différentes approches d’analyse et de mise en valeur de données par l’apprentissage machine. Les données à exploiter sont obtenues de capteurs embarqués sur des camions-toupies partout en Amérique du Nord. Ces capteurs permettent d’enregistrer […]

Afin de limiter l’impact environnemental de l’industrie de la construction, le recyclage des bétons sous forme de granulats recyclés pour la production de nouveau béton est une pratique de plus en plus courante. Néanmoins, il n’existe pas de marché pour les particules les plus fines, notamment en raison des réglementations strictes en vigueur. L’option proposée […]

This project will study how underbody components (tailpipe, muffler, rear fascia brackets and spare wheel compartment) withstand thermal loads over time through the use of a heat-transfer model (using RadTherm simulation package) of the vehicle under investigation as well as the first-order Taylor Series expansion. The Taylor Series will be used to calculate the sensitivity […]

The purpose of this project is to improve process of operational activities by creating more efficient, customer-focused, and agile technical sales team. This project aims to streamline sales processes, optimize resource allocation, and improve collaboration within the team. Moreover, this project will systematically identify, address, and optimize sales and operations process and improve overall performance […]

The main aim of this project is to utilize chitin and its derivatives to fabricate super-macroporous bioinks using our mist-based printhead technology. The proposed project fosters a circular economy by expanding the bioink and bioprinting market and contributing to sustainable economic growth, while simultaneously addressing environmental challenges associated with crustacean shell waste. Additionally, it opens […]

Canada’s international marine trade, accounting for 80% of its commerce with countries beyond North America, surged to an impressive $205 billion in 2015. In this dynamic industry, the maintenance and repair sector assume a pivotal role in managing the life cycle costs of marine vessels, with approximately 72% of the budget allocated to its operation. […]

Future ships will be greener and safer, because they will be self-driving. But testing self-driving ships in the ocean is complicated and dangerous. For that reason, we invented a new way of building smaller models of ships, to safely tests these new technologies. Building ships our way is cheaper and easier than older methods and […]

Les sources et niveaux de bruits sous-marins d’origine humaine, le bruit anthropique, n’ont cessé de croitre depuis les cinquante dernières années. Parmi les activités humaines générant ce bruit, la navigation commerciale figure parmi les principales contributrices et le bruit qu’elle émet est principalement généré par l’hélice et la machinerie des navires. Il existe des technologies […]

In this research endeavor, our goal is to develop user-friendly software tailored for scientists and engineers specializing in the study of fluid dynamics, particularly within oceanic contexts. Imagine it as an adaptable and comprehensive toolkit designed to simplify their intricate experimental tasks. Initially, we will meticulously craft the software, prioritizing ease of use and efficiency. […]

We are hoping to explore the market potential and customer base for the Antifouling and Anti-corrosive Marine Coating. There is a need for durable antifouling and anti-corrosive coating for marine applications which are made within Canada (doesn’t have supply chain issue), could be easily scale-up in production and industrial application, are economically viable, confirms to […]
