The application of road salt to our roads, parking lots and sidewalks, is causing long-term corrosion to infrastructure and vehicles, and damage to the environment. Various alternative de-icing salts have been proposed but a holistic understanding of their ice-melting performance, corrosion effects and environmental impacts is limited. The goal of the broader project is to […]

Composite structures are very popular in industries due to their lightweight and high strength. They degrade and cause huge economic losses or even serious disasters. Structure health monitoring has a great significance in the operation and maintenance of industrial assets. Current commercial software for structural health monitoring uses traditional and common methods which are only […]

Pelvic floor disorders, such as pelvic organ prolapse (POP), negatively affects millions of women each year. POP is the descent of the vagina resulting in symptoms of vaginal bulging, pelvic pressure or heaviness, pain, and incontinence. A nonsurgical option for POP symptom relief is the use of pessaries, removable vaginal prosthetics; however, current pessary designs […]

The aim of this project is to help improve construction efficiency by promoting and advancing OSCM techniques. The specific objective is to develop a two-stage BIM-enabled Decision Support System (BeDSS) for the selection of a suitable IBS for OSCM for multifunctional components or parts of buildings. The partner organization will get a reliable comparison between […]

This project will develop an artificial intelligence-based data fusion framework for activity duration forecasting in project scheduling. Task duration estimation is an important component for project scheduling and optimization for many industries. This problem is significantly more acute for projects with a very large number of activities such as ship building and refit or when […]

Ce projet vise à augmenter les performances environnementales de la production acéricole moderne via deux objectifs, soit dans un premier temps par la conception et l’optimisation d’un système d’évaporation à faible empreinte de GES, puis par l’implantation d’une nouvelle technologie de purification des effluents industriels aqueux issus de la production acéricole. Dans la première portion […]

MIScoliTM est un dispositif innovant pour le traitement de la scoliose chez les jeunes adolescent.e.s. Ce dispositif vise à corriger la déformation de façon moins intrusive que les approches de fusion vertébrale en misant sur la modulation de la croissance vertébrale à l’aide d’agrafes fixées sur les corps vertébraux et d’une attache polymérique qui applique […]

Le bois est un matériau de construction pouvant atteindre une grande longévité lorsqu’il reste au sec ou dans des conditions ne menant pas à la croissance de champignons pouvant le décomposer. La mérule pleureuse est un champignon ayant causé la perte de plusieurs dizaines de bâtiments résidentiels dans les dernières années au Québec. Le présent […]

Increasing demands for electric vehicles and more portable electronics have also increased the demand for rechargeable batteries with higher energy capacity. This project aims to develop novel manufacturing methods to produce advanced rechargeable batteries in a time and cost-efficient way. In this project, the interns perform hands-on experiments to investigate the application of the novel […]

Cette recherche a pour objectif d’élaborer un modèle conceptuel de gestion de l’innovation pour une PME œuvrant dans le secteur de l’environnement afin de permettre d’innover rapidement dans le contexte de la monétisation des crédits de gaz à effet de serre (GES) au Canada et à l’international. En plus des caractéristiques inhérentes à la mesure […]

Water contamination poses a serious risk to health and economic development in Canada and around the world. The ability to inexpensively and quickly detect the pathogen contamination in water will mitigate the risks associated with water contamination. The LAMP-based biosensor described in this proposal will be able to provide these capabilities, and enable fast and […]
