Many communities are transitioning from resource extraction industries to adventure tourism. Adventure tourism is often chosen due to its ability to provide socio-cultural, environmental and economic benefits. This research will explore how resilient tourism development […]

Le KneeKG est une technologie développée par des chercheurs de l’école de technologie supérieure, du Centre de recherche du CHUM et la Teluq, commercialisé par la compagnie Emovi, qui permet la mesure précise du mouvement du genou à la marche sur tapis roulant. Un peu comme l’électrocardiogramme, elle fournit des informations sur les déficiences mécaniques […]

This particular version of a volatility model was shown to be effective using past deutschemark against dolier data. Since the introduction of the common euro currency and the recent turmoil to afflict financial markets it is scientifically Interesting and Socially !mportant to determIne if this model can be calibrated to provide an accurate fit to […]

In this project our goal is to facilitate the 3D reconstruction of assets that are found in the ocean bed for the purpose of monitoring the state of the asset, especially to assess whether there is corrosion or cracks in the equipment. Through the use of high-quality subsea imaging, we can obtain images of assets […]

ReWatt Power facilitates transactions of green energy derivatives/green attributes such as Alberta Carbon Offsets. The company uses a blockchain technology to manage all transactions on their platform. This way, all parties have access to the transaction history in a database they own, and the transactions are immutable. The first objective of this project is to […]

In most cases, the overwhelming reason behind pet abandonment is because of behavioral problems.

Avec les changements climatiques, il est attendu que les pluies seront plus abondantes (Alliance des ruelles bleues-vertes, 2018), ce qui risquerait d’engorger les systèmes municipaux de gestion de l’eau, qui subissent déjà une pression dans les centres urbains (Bruebach, 2019), notamment à Montréal. Or, ce projet s’intéresse au concept de ruelle bleue-verte comme infrastructure pour […]

Sans que la plupart d’entre nous ne le sachent, les lasers sont devenus des parties intégrantes de notre réalité. Ils se retrouvent dans des biens de consommation de la vie de tous les jours, mais ils ont surtout de nombreuses applications industrielles. Parmi les différents types de lasers, le laser à fibre optique se démarque […]

Because of the usefulness of non-destructive testing in the assessment of different types of materials, they have attracted widespread interest in the last years. Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a descriptive term used for the examination of materials and components in such a way that allows materials to be examined without changing or destroying their function. […]

Les cartographies et modèles urbains en 3D sont des représentations indispensables afin de visualiser et d’augmenter l’environnement dans les applications exploitées par des utilisateurs mobiles, qu’ils soient des professionnels (ex. ingénieurs civils, …) ou des citoyens. Les dernières années ont vu un développement remarquable des systèmes de télémétrie mobile (i.e. LiDAR), installés sur des véhicules […]
