Fall and Head Impact Acceleration Monitoring of Short Track Speed Skaters

Short track speed skating is a fast-paced sport where athletes routinely reach speed above 50 km/h. It is one of the leading Canadian sports for medal count at the Olympic games. Unfortunately, given the fast-paced and pack-style skating, athletes often fall on the ice, which may lead to concussion. There is no clear data on […]

Système de gestion intelligente des déplacements d’usagers en fonction de mesures environnementales exploitées via une infrastructure 5G

Le secteur du transport représente le plus important contributeur d’émissions de gaz à effet de serre (Hoornweg et al., 2011; United Nations, 2020). Parmi l’ensemble des moyens de transport (routier, aérien, maritime), c’est le transport routier qui pèse le plus dans la balance en matière de quantités de CO2 émises dans l’atmosphère. Dans une démarche […]

Development of a polishing treatment process (PTP) for anaerobic digester centrate

The production of biogas via the anaerobic digestion of organic waste is a growing industry in Canada. One benefit of this approach is that the resultant organic waste (digestate) can be dewatered and used as fertilizer; however, the removed water fraction remains rich in organic compounds and must be adequately treated before being discharged from […]

Towards a circular end-to-end process for fully 3D printed footwear – assessment of additive manufacturing processes, material selection and mechanical characterization

The fashion industry has recently shifted toward better environmental practices but focus has been on apparel because shoes are complex products. ARSHAE, located in Montréal, proposes an end-to-end solution that accounts for the entire life cycle of shoes by building a closed loop system that enables zero waste. ARSHAE focuses on using ecological materials in […]

Infrastructure Corrosion Assessment Magnetic Method (iCAMM) technology for macro and micro defect detection of rail track

Because of the usefulness of non-destructive testing in the assessment of different types of materials, they have attracted widespread interest in the last years. Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a descriptive term used for the examination of materials and components in such a way that allows materials to be examined without changing or destroying their function. […]

Détection et modélisation 3D d’objets à partir de nuages de points LiDAR acquis avec des systèmes de télémétrie mobile selon une architecture sans serveur

Les cartographies et modèles urbains en 3D sont des représentations indispensables afin de visualiser et d’augmenter l’environnement dans les applications exploitées par des utilisateurs mobiles, qu’ils soient des professionnels (ex. ingénieurs civils, …) ou des citoyens. Les dernières années ont vu un développement remarquable des systèmes de télémétrie mobile (i.e. LiDAR), installés sur des véhicules […]
