This project is a part of a collaborative research program between Canada and France, through a joint supervision thesis. The ongoing first phase in Canada involves utilizing a numerical simulation method, namely COMSOL software, to predict mass (water) and heat transfers through biobased building walls, with the incorporation of mechanical loading on the wall. However, […]

Jake is going to join the projects using a large-scale boundary layer wind tunnel, a thermally stratified wind tunnel, a climate chamber, and wind tunnel projects conducted at various companies if possible. Lastly, based on the understanding of wind tunnel technologies, he is going to conduct research on the evaluation of wind loading on tall […]

Transport infrastructures are the backbone of our society and bridges are the bottleneck of the transport network. Climate change resulting in higher corrosion rates, and extreme climatic events are important threats to the reliability and safety of the transport network. This has led to growing concerns for the remaining service life of infrastructure under normal […]

Acrylic Robotics is a robotics startup based in Montreal, on a mission to use technology to make fine art accessible to the general public. To make fine art accessible, this project focuses on the implementation of a larger robotic arm to recreate artists’ artworks at scale. The intern will be responsible for the development of […]

This project aims to provide a sustainable and low-cost packaging machine for small businesses in the cosmetics industry. This machine will be able to fully automate the packaging process for cosmetics, while also providing a near zero-waste usage. The material used for the packaging and for holding the cosmetic samples will be optimized to find […]

This project aims to continue an academia-industry collaboration between INRS and Applied Nanotools Inc. (ANT) to collaboratively develop high-accuracy nano-positioning using an optical imaging approach. The major goals include (1) the development of the second-generation moiré-fringe-based optical nanopositioning system (MONAS-2.0), (2) the technology transfer of this system to ANT, and (3) the exploration of new […]

The abradable rub strip (ARS) material’s main function is to minimize the clearance between blade tips and the fan case, thereby increasing the overall engine efficiency. Under tensile and compressive loading, the abradable material behaves different, and has a significant post-failure compaction under compressive loading. Therefore, its characterization is complex and requires a wide range […]

One of the most important pieces of equipments used in maritime transportation for Self-Unloading (SUL) bulk carriers is the “conveyor belt,” which allows the ship to be a very effective and competitive solution. However, the conveyor belts use much energy, which means huge consumption of fuel materials that lead to the emission of polluting gases […]

Our research is related to developing mathematical tools for analyzing power systems with massive penetration of renewable power resources, mainly wind, solar and small hydropower: that convex optimization, dynamical systems, model predictive control, optimal control, and passivity-based control. The objective of this small project is to develop model-predictive controls for the integration of renewable energies, […]
