Les documents portant sur l’étalement urbain en rapport aux changements climatiques sont abondants et couvrent un large spectre (textes de politiques publiques; écrits prônant les “bonnes pratiques”; écrits scientifiques produisant de la connaissance sur cette question complexe et multidimensionnelle). Cette diversité de documents est souvent source de confusion chez les acteurs de planification territoriale à […]

Bombardier started a few years ago the development of new architectures for aircraft control systems in a of a larger Internal R&D activity named XDIMA: Highly Integrated Control Systems on Distributed Integrated Modular Architecture. The main hurtle along this activity has been the increase in complexity which requires changes of best engineering practice. One of […]

Steel production in a modern steel rolling mill involves many steps. A hot rolling process typically starts from a reheat furnace to heat the cold metal to high temperatures (800 to 1000 C or above) so that the softened metal take different shapes when it is pressed. The end products will be used to make, […]

The development of test means for aircraft flight control systems for is a complex, multidisciplinary and time consuming task. In this project a Master student will develop a reusable model-based development framework, based on an open source tool and methodology. This model-based systems engineering approach will allow the formalization of the generic aspects of the […]

Recent advances in hydrogeomorphology promote a sustainable, holistic approach to river management based on the concepts of working with nature, where mobility and flood zones are defined to give more space to rivers for fluvial processes and associated ecosystem services to operate. This sustainable and proactive restoration vision, termed “the freedom space for river” concept, […]

La majorité de la population des pays développés vivra en ville, ce qui, malgré les possibilités que la vie urbaine entraine, provoquera plusieurs problèmes reliés au trafic, au bruit et à la criminalité. Le présent programme de recherche a pour objectif de développer de nouvelles expertises et technologies visant à réconcilier la croissance rapide de […]

Non-parametric models such as supervised and unsupervised machine learning algorithms seem to be an interesting choice when trying to extract decision-making signals out of this ever-increasing volume of information. These models have been used extensively in the last decades and are now more relevant than ever thanks to the development of new techniques in artificial […]

In this project, the intern will design a decision support framework for optimizing tube utilization in laboratory tests. Given a prescription, the framework automates the tube selection process and outputs low cost tube configurations. The framework is designed to be easily adapted to different lab configurations. It consists of three processes, namely data profile configuration, […]

With the fast-moving pace of the auto industry moving to more and more computing units, connected infotainment, pairing of on-board equipment to mobile devices, cloud connectivity, V2V, V2X, and autonomous functions, architects and developers need all the help they can get to address security and safety concerns in the systems. This internship will look at […]

Today’s marketplace is moving faster than ever, and companies are challenged to distribute their products more quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively. This has led to the rise of cross-docking in the global supply chain to help keep pace with customer demand. Cross-docking refers to the practice of unloading goods or materials from an incoming vehicle (e.g., […]

Using a multiphysics approach, the intern will construct a model for the topological optimization of two distinct classes of cantilever-type sensors: one often encountered in the general industrial application and the other one customized for the specific needs of a biosensor. Altair Hyperworks will be the main software tool to be used for this particular […]
