L’objectif de ce projet est de développer les matériaux biosourcés en collaboration avec les membres chercheurs au Canada, en France et au Brésil. Ce volet sera divisé en trois sessions mais la stagiaire Mme Khouloud Swalmi participera à la session sur la production de matériaux biosourcés, spécifiquement de gels à base de tanins commerciaux venant […]

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

In power systems, dynamic simulation studies are required to ensure safe and secure operation of electrical grid. In these studies, different devices, such as generators and transmission lines, are represented by a mathematical model with a number of predefined parameters. The accuracy of the simulation studies highly depend on the models used for different components. […]

This project aims to support the development of an automated chick sorting device that uses software, cameras, and conveyors. Techniques to increase the consistency of chick reactions to maintain separation along a conveyor and to induce wing spreads will be explored. The wing spread is required to expose to biological markers that exist on the […]

Plastics play a vital role in our daily lives, touching various sectors such as construction, healthcare, automotive, agriculture, and packaging. Packaging films, in particular, serve diverse purposes for both food and non-food items. However, the widespread use of disposable plastics leads to a significant waste issue. To address this, there’s a growing push to replace […]

Numalogics is a company that uses finite element models of the spine to offer consulting services for other companies, assist in the design of new spinal implants and surgical tools, and simulate surgical procedures. Currently, they apply pre-established loads to their models when running simulations of basic spinal movements. They require to assess whether these […]

Face masks play an important role in preventing droplets and filtrating exhalations coming from infected subjects or against various threats in the wearer’s surroundings. Approximately 129 billion single-use masks were discarded per month worldwide during the pandemic. The inadequate handling and management of single-use face masks cause many environmental problems. In contrast to disposable masks, […]

L’objectif principal de l’étude est de documenter le modèle de la Centrale agricole en effectuant une collecte de données permettant de réaliser une évaluation environnementale et économique du modèle mutualisé sur l’activité de ses membres. Pour la coopérative, les présents travaux permettront de préciser et de générer de la donnée sur les impacts du modèle […]

In Canada, one out of every nine hospital patients acquires infections annually, resulting in a minimum of 8,000 deaths. These infections often stem from inadequate sealing of transepithelial medical devices, which breach the skin’s protective barrier. While current treatments rely on antibiotics, the prevention of infections could be achieved through effective integration of medical devices […]

PCB stator motors are an emerging research area with cost and efficiency benefits compared to traditional motors. PCB stator motors with integrated variable frequency drives have the potential for significant power density improvements if Galium Nitride (GaN) power semiconductors are used in the drive. In this project, emerging high voltage GaN semiconductors will be used […]
