Materials fatigue has a detrimental impact upon the lifetime and cost-effectiveness of turbine equipment in Hydro-Québec’s energy production division. Metal fatigue, in turn, is linked to it internal microstructure, that developed in a metal during its fabrication or repair through welding, as is often done to damaged hydroelectric turbine blades that break during operation. The […]

In 20 years, CEATI has accumulated a large volume of highly detailed and industry leading intellectual property in the form of topic-specific technical reports and benchmarking studies. We would like to modernize the portfolio of content and diversify the ‘form factors’ to improve the usability of the key technical findings (training presentations, implementation guides, etc.) […]

EERS Global conceives and develops advanced in-ear technologies to accelerate the go-to-market phase of game-changing products such as advanced hearing protection & communication devices. A big challenge for EERS is to understand the trends in the newly labelled hearable industry, to build a bridge between these trends and its own research initiatives, and to commercialize […]

Terry vise a aider les personnes vivant avec un handicap à bénéficier des subventions disponible avec le régime enregistré d’épargne-invalidité (REEI). Avec notre technologie, nous facilitons le processus d’ouverture ce régime canadien. Ce régime donne plus de 90 000$ de subvention du gouvernement mais il est estimé que seulement 30% des Canadiens admissible en bénéficient. […]

While much of how we interact with the world is grounded in the body, embodied forms of knowledge have received little attention in research and practice. The inherent difficulty in communicating embodied experiences, and the paucity of tools to do so, poses a significant barrier to sharing it—a problem which is only exacerbated by our […]

Bowel cancers and diseases are treated with surgery. But recovery from surgery is difficult. Patients can experience long hospital stays, complications after surgery, and a delay in the return of their usual daily activities. The 6-min walk distance (6MWD) is a test performed before surgery to evaluate physical fitness. If a patient is unable to […]

Cannabinoid uniformity is paramount to cannabis product quality and marketability. The objective of this study is to compare and evaluate two overhead lighting strategies to maximize yield and THC content in cannabis plants. The experiment will be replicated three times. This study will benefit the partner organization by determining which lighting strategy is superior for […]

Surgical manipulation (e.g., injections, electrode placement) in the developing mouse brain is essential for neuroscientists in order to study the structure and function of the brain and behaviour. Unfortunately, most atlases used in targeting are based on static adult mouse anatomical brain features. Here we propose the use of 4-dimentional (4D) brain atlases (time being […]

Hydro-generators and transformers are expected to last beyond 40 years; however, most typically last only 30 years (there are currently 50,000 operating power transformers, of which 95% are close to 30 years old). Condition monitoring, and in particular, the ability to monitor partial discharge (PD), will allow power generation companies and transmission utilities to identify […]

The creation of an immersive space requires the precise connection of audio, visual and haptic systems. Current methods for connecting these systems rely on software engineers to rebuild the tools each time a change is made to the mappings, making it difficult for designers to experiment with new interaction methods. This internship will support and […]

Levansucrase (LS) is an enzyme that can catalyse reactions converting sugars, alkyl and phenolic compounds to complex oligosaccharides. In-depth studies are still needed regarding the reactions with alkyl and phenolic compounds which show high potential in increasing their antioxidant properties. In addition, further work is necessary to investigate the ability of LS to produce functional […]

Collogh Cares Inc is a digital health technology and advocacy start up, committed to preventing kidney failure, one family at a time .We are building an end-to-end solution to the problem of kidney disease and the inadequate follow-up of Chronic Kidney Patients. Our solution constitutes of a Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) management “ecosystem” comprising of […]
