Comme les limiteurs de courant de court-circuit supraconducteurs sont appeh~s a jouer un role ch~ dans Ie futur des reseaux d’energie electrique. Cependant, leur design requiert des outils de simulation numerique sophistiques, qui ne sont pas accessibles presentement. Ce stage MtTACS, couple a un projet de recherche MITACS de plus grande envergure, vise a mettre […]

The result of this project (which will be demonstrated by a use case) can make health equipments to be used outside of hospitals. This is achieved by reducing the computation cost of running Deep Learning models by 3rd party tools and use our accelerator solution to run the size reduced and optimized model. This greatly […]

Biocides are defined as substances used to control unwanted microorganisms. These substances can be used in paints and coatings to control the growth of microorganisms on different surfaces. However, uncontrolled application of biocides can lead to release of biocides from the painted surface and thus health and safety issues, growth of microorganisms after a short […]

Biking is a common physical activity enjoyed by children and adults around the world. Children with disabilities may not be able to use a standard bike but can participate using bikes that are customized based on their individual needs. There is some indication that adaptive biking has physical and psychosocial benefits. However, there is a […]

L’entreprise Rheinmetall Canada développe un véhicule militaire autonome qui a la faculté de se déplacer dans des environnements jugés dangereux et accidentés, sans l’intervention d’un pilote. Ce véhicule peut accomplir des missions telles que la protection des soldats et le ravitaillement des troupes. Toutefois, son système de navigation interne se base sur deux technologies, la […]

Les contraintes concurrentielles et environnementales poussent les producteurs d’energie, a utiliser leurs equipements a la limite de leurs specific~tions, augmentant ainsi les risques de defaillance. II est donc necessaire pour ces producteurs de developper des methodes analy1iques pour evaluer I’impact de nouveaux scenarios d’utilisation sur la fiabilite de leurs equipements. La fatigue est la cause […]

Le sujet de la recherche concerne l’évaluation de l’ergonomie de l’interface graphique et la mesure de la charge cognitive ainsi que l’évaluation des cas d’utilisation du casque intelligent pour pompier en situation d’intervention en vue de proposer des ajustements ou améliorations ou encore de nouveaux cas d’utilisation

Chitin is an abundant resource in the form of shell waste from food industry in Canada and the world. BOCO Bio-Nanotechnologies has currently the infrastructure in place for scalable extraction of chitin nanowhiskers (CNWs) from crab shells. CNWs are the crystalline form of chitin molecules, possessing high strength, stiffness and aspect ratio, making them an […]

Thermochemical conversion of waste tires to useful energy resources is attractive to obtain pyrolysis oils with potential economic value. However, the high sulfur and nitrogen contents prevents its direct application as a drop-in fuel in refineries. Though, catalytic hydrotreatment can reduce these heteroatoms, the prohibitive costs of high pressure equipments and harsh reaction conditions necessitates […]

Lubricant is the substance used to decrease the friction generated between the two surfaces undergo relative motion. There are many applications for naturally occurring lubricants in medical field to improve a patient’s quality of life. Fucoidan is one of the naturally occurring lubricants that has the potential of reducing adhesion after an abdominal surgery. ARC […]

In this study, an integrated model will be developed to forecast oil and gas productions in the next 20 years for Canadian basins. Using the output of the model, supply costs estimation, economic impact analysis and GHG emissions calculation will be conducted over the forecast period from 2020 to 2040. The developed integrated model will […]
