There is a simple way to have great skin, be more attractive, and improve one’s health, but most of the global population refuses to do it. Worldwide fruit and vegetable (FV) intake is below recommendations reducing the intake of yellow-red plant pigments that have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and anti-obesity properties. These plant pigments are called […]

In a time where energy use awareness is more and more prevalent due to its significance in global warming, all sectors of society are putting effort to participate in finding new ways to reduce energy consumption. The industrial sector in Canada consumes nearly 1/3 of total energy. A challenge for industrial organizations is to define […]

This project will investigate violations of safety and consent that transgender and gender-diverse people face while dating. This project will uncover how trans and gender-diverse people have experienced and addressed dating violence, in both online and offline contexts. In this research, I will apply an intersectional framework to remain critically aware of how gender identity, […]

Annually, 2 million individuals in North America suffer mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) or concussion (cost: $75 billion), with 200,000 in Canada. An objective tool is required to distinguish concussed subjects acutely from ontrols, and to predict who will develop chronic symptoms. The frontal lobes, the corpus callosum, and the thalamus play key roles in […]

The majority of license producers (LP) Cannabis producers have witnessed evidence of powdery mildew and grey mold and bud rot diseases. Plant yields and ultimate profitability can be severely undermined by these diseases. Medicinal plants produce essential oils in the form of secondary metabolites. The essential oils have the potential to be used as antibacterial, […]

Current needs for renewable and emission-free technologies imposes hydroelectric power plants to generate power in a predictable and reliable fashion. Replacing metallic to polymeric coatings in thrust bearings allows hydroelectric turbines to operate at a wider range of operation parameters. However, the sensibility of polymeric materials to the manufacturing method imposes important uncertainties on the […]

Since Amazon robotics expanded the use of drones to package deliveries to customers, drone applications have been expanded to many industries along with its ability to perform various tasks autonomously. The fundamental technology of drones’ autonomy comes from perceiving its surrounding, creating its own map based on onboard sensors and estimate its location within the […]

Facial expression is a universal language to convey emotions and significantly affects social interactions. While psychologists have investigated facial expressions for decades, they have recently found their way into human-computer interactions and the gaming industry. A lot of research has been published on automatic detection of human emotions given either a single image or a […]

The goal is to create a conversation loop between 3D designers and artificial intelligence programs. This will help the AI provide suggestions to the designer, while the designer provides the AI with feedback. This can help make it easier for designing complicated objects as well as complicated textures that belong to the surface of 3D […]

Given a time series of returns for a portfolio of financial instruments, develop a model that accurately predicts returns which maximize profits. The objective function will take an input of financial indicators from the previous time interval and the returns from the current time interval. These indicators can explain relationships between financial instruments in the […]

The proposed project aims to understand and optimized the performance of hydrogen production from renewable energy sources using PEM electrolysis cell. Experimental study of PEM electrolysis cells will be conducted at the University of Tokyo along with numerical simulation. Three-dimensional numerical model using ANSYS Fluent Electrolysis module will be developed. Fluid flow, heat and mass […]

Ce projet propose de définir les enjeux socio-environnementaux et socio-économiques reliés à la présence de microplastiques (MP) marins dans l’estuaire et le golfe du Saint-Laurent, une région hydrologique complexe sous-étudiée vis-à-vis cette problématique. Ceci permettra d’orienter les décisions visant à protéger l’environnement tout en soutenant les secteurs maritimes, notamment ceux reliés aux ressources marines commerciales. […]
