Finite element modelling (FEM) can be used enhance the understanding of physical testing results and will be applied to two distinct structural problems. The first problem will involve combined loading of concrete masonry walls, and the second problem will involve the performance of adhered stone veneer under wind loading. Combined compressive and out of plane […]

Copper, a conductive metal, forms the basis of much of our manufacturing and electrical infrastructure. Yet, despite high demands for the metal, supply is not keeping pace. One of the chief reasons is that copper extraction faces steep technical challenges that have steadily pushed up capital expenditures. We propose to use a recent innovation called […]

Machine Vision (MV) is a technology that aims to translate visual data from images or videos into useful information for industrial processes. The use of MV in precision agriculture is currently expanding and has helped to accelerate and improve sorting, grading and yield estimation. The goal of this research project is to develop a MV […]

La fabrication additive par soudage ultrasons combine la soudure par ultrasons de métaux et l’usinage de ces derniers à l’intérieur du même appareil. Cette méthode de mise en œuvre est principalement présente dans les domaines de l’aéronautique, de l’aérospatiale, de l’automobile et de l’électronique. Il s’agit d’un type de soudure dit « à froid » […]

Au Québec, malgré les investissements massifs récents pour maintenir le réseau routier dans un état acceptable, nous faisons face à des conditions climatiques rigoureuses qui endommagent plus rapidement le réseau routier. En période hivernale, des interventions palliatives d’urgence sont nécessaires afin d’assurer la sécurité des usagers. Dans le but préserver « les actifs » de […]

Manufacturing system reliability is significant in modern industry that requires high speed and low cost in production. The proposed work is aiming to establish a systematic and applicable approach for machine condition monitoring and condition based maintenance with the help of large amount of data from the industrial internet of things. Deep learning, as an […]

In this project, carbon-based nano-materials were used not only to capture CO2, but also function as a nano-carrier platform to uptake the drugs and genes for cancer therapeutic applications. In other words, the main objective of this project is to tackle two major issues in our society: greenhouse gas emission and cancer.

Tannins, natural renewable molecules, have exhibited excellent corrosion inhibition properties, comparable to those of non-renewable counterparts. TGWT Clean Technologies Inc. has a portfolio of tannin-based corrosion inhibitors, which are being used in industry to protect mild steel (MS) steam boilers, high efficiency condensing aluminium boilers, as well as multi-metal heating and cooling closed-loop systems. Copper […]

Ciena Corporation is a global supplier of telecommunications networking equipment. It develops this equipment in a high product mix, low volume environment. Due to this environment and the short cycle times of its products, the company has product categories, which are highly dynamic both in volume and number of customers. Ciena wishes to be more […]

Le composite de thermoplastique (Polyéthylène) renforcé de fibres de bois pourrait théoriquement remplacer le Nylon (PA) dans la fabrication de certaines pièces mécaniques. Ce stage de recherche a pour but le développement et l’étude du comportement mécanique des roues et rondelles en composite de fibres naturelle, d’élaborer du composite de Polyéthylène renforcé de fibres de […]

Using modern machine learning techniques and analytical tools, the intern will create a joint recommendation and inventory management system that will be able to automatically choose the ideal package for Chic Marie’s customers. This package will include curated clothes for each customer based on their tastes, buying history and any other data they wish to […]

L’objectif principal est de mettre à disposition de nos partenaires industriels des outils informatisés innovants afin d’améliorer et d’enrichir leurs technologies (plateforme d’imagerie d’EOS Imaging, orthèse du genou de Médicus, outils pour la planification chirurgicale de Spinologics) pour aider une population, de plus en plus vieillissante, à demeurer autonome, mobile et active.
