Numerical Study of the Tillage Forces on Soil Plows

The industrial drainage plow is a mechanized tool used for the installation of agricultural drainage and land reclamation. A large machine controls the depth and angle of the mole to determine the grade and depth of the tile for piping or cable to be installed. The plow is used for agricultural drainage, trenching, and installation […]

Learning and routing in last-mile delivery

The vehicle routing problem and its extensions have been successful in optimizing a measure such as time or cost, but only when these measures can be accurately estimated or approximated. However, this is not the case in complex environments. Particularly in urban routing, it is generally complicated, and efficient routing requires tacit knowledge of the […]

Exploring Alternatives with Design Analytics Interfaces: A Human-Centered Approach for Integrating Generative Design and Performance Assessment with Machine Learning-Based Surrogate Modelling

Designing built environments is a complex process that involves generating and evaluating alternative solutions using computational tools. In the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry, designers use generative design methods to explore a larger number of alternatives and ML-driven rapid performance prediction to identify potential issues early on. However, separating these tasks hampers creative flow […]

The use of virtual reality in the treatment of perinatal mood disorders

My project aims to complement the Toi, Moi, Bébé (TMB) program with a Virtual Reality (VR) system. The TMB program aims to prevent perinatal mood disorders, including depression and anxiety, by reducing experiential avoidance and improving self-soothing capacities, which are ideal targets for a VR system. Different applications will be developed for each component of […]
