2020 and 2021 have seen an unprecedented number of natural disasters. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce, 2020 was the 5th warmest year ever recorded with a record number of tropical storms and wildfires throughout North America. Considering only 2020, the cost of these weather and climate […]

This project will apply the theoretical framework of Activity Theory to Agile product development methods in order to decompose them into salient components, using an integrative literature review of Agile methodologies to do so. This decomposition will then be used to adapt the open-source education management/planning software CourseFlow for use in Agile development. This software […]

Frailty is becoming more frequent for patients and the healthcare system as the Canadian population ages. Frailty is defined by a reduction in physiological reserves, which is linked to an increased risk of mortality. Sarcopenia, or age-related loss of muscle mass and function, is a key component of frailty that can be measured. Sarcopenia can […]

Battery life is a key concern for smartphone makers, and the power consumed by smartphone applications is directly tied to battery life. In this project the intern will develop fast, early and accurate models of smartphone power consumption, before the hardware and the operating system are available. These models will be useful for early optimization […]

Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircrafts are being developed to revolutionize the transportation industry. They fly over traffic industry to their destination, drastically reducing commuting time. Limosa Inc. is a leading company to design and manufacture eVTOLs in Canada. This research is devoted to design, analyze and manufacture a composite initially curved wing-stabilizer of […]

The outcome of the proposed research on heritage buildings could benefit the industry, including EVOQ Strategies’ work as they have been involved in a number of projects on heritage buildings. Keeping the above in mind, the following general objectives are identified for the current research: – Provide a detailed overview of existing technologies as well […]

The aviation industry is a significant contributor to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, and the influence of these emissions is exacerbated by the fact that they are emitted at high altitudes. This project advances the development of fully electric Urban Air Mobility (UAM) systems, which have the potential to significantly reduce emissions relative to existing jet […]

The PDF will start by validating the use of the open-source Stanford University Unstructured (SU2) RANS-based CFD solver for rotorcraft design. This includes generating a mesh and configuration file with SU2 and performing a grid convergence study to validate SU2 and the chosen turbulence models against the reference experimental data. Following this, PDF will generate […]

Today’s customer desire more and more personalized products and often want to get involved in the design of them. The manufacturing of personalized furniture is a good example of this trend. NavCamper is a SME in Quebec, producing personalized camping cars. The production of personalized cabinets for these camping cars is currently very labour intensive. […]

Osmotic power or salinity gradient energy is one type of the renewable energies which is produced by mixing fresh water with salt water. This new environmental friendly energy based on the advantages such as carbon dioxide free and generating power continuously seems to be a good option in which to invest as it will be […]
