Il est possible avec des techniques spécialisées de rendre des cerveaux de souris transparents permettant ainsi de les analyser pour mieux comprendre leur fonctionnement. Toutefois, ces méthodes demeurent en développement et il est très difficile de perfectionner ces techniques rapidement. Le projet consiste à développer un microscope ayant une vision très large permettant ainsi de […]

Models quantifying the grade and tonnage of mineral deposits form the basis of important and costly decisions for planning, optimization and extraction of a natural resource. Models are initially generated from sparse exploration sampling; however, information is continuously collected until resource extraction. Predicted values that reconcile well with true values following extraction instill confidence in […]

This project is aimed for an accurate and highly convenient methodology to visually investigate the multiphase flow behavior, foamy oil stability and solvent mass transfer in solvent injection processes. Therefore, a novel real-time direct visualization methodology, focusing on the study of foamy oil equilibrium and non-equilibrium PVT phase behavior and stability in bulk and porous […]

Irwin’s Industrial Safety, as a leading provider of safety and project management services, has collected safety and efficiency data over a list of projects since 2013. As a part of Mitacs Accelerate project, those data have been analyzed and the results have been visualized to enlighten opportunities for future optimization. This research proposes a framework […]

Fish farms are a way to satisfy the increasing demand for fish without directly impacting wild stocks. In fish farms water quality significantly impacts fish health and development. Industrial fish farms rely on aerators for multiple purposes, including the oxygenation of water and the isolation of fish from plankton blooms. However, at this time, several […]

More and more distributed energy resources (smart loads, self-generation, electric vehicles, etc.) are installed directly at the customers. This causes fluctuations in the distribution network that can reverse the power flow or increase the cold pick-up effect. The infrastructures in place have not been designed for this new reality and they must be adapted accordingly, […]

Due to its versatility, time and cost saving, additive manufacturing (AM) technology, and more specifically selective laser melting process (SLM), is replacing conventional manufacturing processes, particularly for producing complex geometry components. In this technology, the near net shape parts are incrementally built by fusing layers of powder material using an intensive heating source/ Structural stress […]

Rugged transceivers, which can sustain harsh environments, are in high demand in the applications such as telecommunications, avionics, and space. Vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL)-based transceivers have been a cost-effective approach to address the demand. However, the exponential growth in the data volume, push the technology toward higher speeds at longer reaches. Reflex Photonics has been […]

Le recyclage des enrobés bitumineux gagne en popularité. Cette procédure permet de réhabiliter les chaussées flexibles dans un esprit de développement durable. Ce projet de recherche porte sur l’influence d’ajout de granulats bitumineux recyclés (GBR) dans des enrobés neufs. Plus précisément, l’impact de l’ajout de GBR sur la rigidité et sur la résistance à fatigue […]

Med-El’s BoneBridge implant provides the sensation of sound to hearing-impaired persons. The device’s transducer is surgically implanted in the skull. Key surgical problems are to find a location on the individual patient’s skull that is thick enough to house the transducer and to place and configure the transducer to maximize sound energy transfer to the […]
