The project goal is to extract motions of high-level divers to quantify technique and outcome (key indicators) markers. We need to measure some discrete variables (maximum height, flight time, springboard depression and others) and explain why the athlete is able to reach those results by calculating spatio-temporal variables (coordination with the board, lower and upper […]

In order to produce orthopedic knee prostheses for a patient, it is necessary to produce an accurate three-dimensional model of the knee cartilage. The overall goal of the project is to develop a new segmentation method of knee cartilage on MRI images that is both automatic and robust. Laboratoires Bodycad inc. is currently developing innovative […]

This project will offer a comprehensive review of the latest battery electric-powered equipment addressed to UG mining industry. Consequently, the research will contribute to a better understanding of the technology. Westwood mine will assist the student with his research with the opportunity of acquiring experimental data on battery electric prototypes. The enquiry will serve to […]

Dans la nature, certaines plantes peuvent relâcher des substances biochimiques ayant des effets positifs ou négatifs sur d’autres organismes végétaux. Elles sont appelées substances allélochimiques. L’étude de leurs effets sur les semences de mauvaises herbes et d’organisme ciblés, dans un contexte d’agriculture urbaine, pourrait mener au développement d’un bioherbicide de faible toxicité. Ce projet a […]

Ce projet de recherche traite des bases granulaires de chaussées non revêtues traitées avec des matériaux cimentaires. Le traitement des bases granulaires rallonge la durée de vie de ces chaussées. Dans le cadre de cette étude, une formulation de base granulaire traitée au ciment sera établie, et la possibilité de préfissurer cette couche de matériaux […]

Planetary boundaries can be understood as limits for the Earth’s tolerance towards environmental impacts in the form of, for example, greenhouse gas emissions, water use and the release of nitrogen and phosphorous. This project aims at making planetary boundaries useful to the environmental management within companies. This will happen by developing a method that quantifies […]

La stabilité des parcs à résidus est une priorité pour l’industrie minière due aux conséquences graves qui peuvent être associées avec une rupture. Le taux de défaillance de ces ouvrages est dix fois plus élevé que celui des barrages conventionnels et 25 % des défaillances sont attribuables à la séismicité. En raison de leur permanence, […]

The project’s main objective is a further reduction of dependence on fossil fuels in our everyday electric appliances. Fossil Fuels are used to generate electricity and they emit dangerous greenhouse gases to the environment which one of its consequences is the familiar global warming phenomena. By integrating a heat exchanger to the original solar PV […]

Biodegradable polymeric biomaterials have been used extensively for medical applications such as implants, drug/gene delivery, and scaffolds. To determine the end applications, the molecular characteristics of these polymeric biomaterials are important which must be characterized. The development of reliable and fast analytical tool to detect, separate and characterize polymeric biomaterials in medical devices and drug […]

Different types of the interconnected suspension systems have been suggested, designed and demonstrated. Although the ample work has been done in the area of interconnected suspension, the work for overcoming or satisfying practical limitations and commercialization of the suspension considering all the space and size constraints is not sufficient. The proposed research work involves In-Lab […]

Counting coins, with speed and accuracy, has been a challenging issue for banks and stores. People used to count coins manually before the arrival of coin counting machines. The process of counting coins manually is a very time consuming and tedious job. Moreover, mistakes are likely to occur due to various reasons such as fatigue, […]
