Les abatteuses-façonneuses modernes sont munies d’un ordinateur embarqué pour gérer la tête d’abattage-façonnage. Aujourd’hui, ces ordinateurs ne sont pas utilisés à leur plein potentiel. Pour l’être, les instruments de mesure de la tête doivent être calibrés. Ce projet vise à réaliser une étude de type « coûts-bénéfices » pour déterminer dans quels contextes la calibration […]

Offshore Wind Energy is one among the viable renewable energy sources which could help meet our future energy needs. The main concern about the offshore wind energy is the high cost of energy. The cost of Offshore wind energy is very expensive when compared to onshore cost. The success of offshore wind energy highly depends […]

Using maps is an integral part of our life especially in our digital era whether it is for navigation, used in geographic information system,resources monitoring, surveying and many others. The pace of technological progress in the mapping sensors is rapidly accelerating. LIDAR sensors and optical sensors are two different types of mapping sensors. LIDAR and […]

Passive Action (PA) has established know-how and technology to finish metal parts for a wide range of applications (e.g. storage racks for the pharmaceutical industry). They use an electropolishing to achieve this finish of metal parts. This technology has shown its economic advantages over other conventional techniques for surface smoothening and deburring (remove sharp edges). […]

This project aims to develop a fast-response, portable and mobile-readable point of care test (POCT) device. Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology is proposed to fabricate the configuration that features components and elements functioning to accommodate and integrate all principle stages of analysis, including sample pre-treatment, fluidic manipulation and signal detection. This device is used to track […]

Regenerative fuel cells are important in a number of applications such as remote back-up power where fuel logistics are difficult. A key component of a regenerative fuel cell is the oxygen electrode which is required to perform in both a fuel cell mode and in an electrolysis mode. The proposed research project will look at […]

Le projet de recherche consiste en l’analyse de performance d’une nouvelle architecture d’éolienne à axe verticale de petite puissance. L’objectif de ce nouveau concept proposé par le partenaire est d’être en mesure de produire de l’électricité avec des vitesses de vent réduites afin de réduire les coûts de production d’électricité en milieux éloignées. Dans un […]

Design problems need creative solving method, solution and specific knowledge and experience. Design problems and solution methodologies have been studied for many decades. Environment-Based Design (EBD) method is one of the modern and comprehensive methods which reflects the state of art in the design methodologies. In this project EBD technics including environment analysis, right-questions presentation, […]

Meat contamination is a severe public health risk and therefore the development of highly precise, rapid, and reliable monitoring devices are necessary. Chemical hazards in meat such as the presence of nitrites and antibiotic residues have potentially carcinogenic, toxic, and/or allergenic effects when exceeding threshold limits set by governing health agencies. Conventional methods to monitor […]

Stamping presses are widely used to make metal parts in the automotive industry. Currently, lubrication for a die in a stamping press is applied to the whole sheet. Although this is the industry standard, this approach has a problem. By the time the sheet exits the press, the lubricant may have run out. This can […]

Current wastewater treatment facilities are relatively large and located in centralized populated areas. A major issue arises in an area such as Tianjin China because there are a number a small communities and villages located a great distance away from the centralized treatment plant within the city. Because of this, those villages require a transportation […]

La réalité augmentée consiste à superposer des éléments virtuels à notre réalité, soit au niveau visuel ou auditif. En réalité augmentée, l’ajout d’un avatar à un environnement virtuel comporte plusieurs défis jusqu’alors non présents pour d’autres médias comme les écrans 2D ou la réalité virtuelle. En effet, l’avatar est exposé au monde réel de l’utilisateur […]
