The fault ride-through (FRT) capability of a wind farm is major challenge because the disconnection of a large wind farms caused by network disturbances may lead to system instability and cascaded failures. Recent studies mostly focused on FRT capabilities for the voltage-source converter (VSC) based wind farms. Although, the current-source converter (CSC) based wind energy […]

Although several attempts have been carried out to derive statistics about eN Tower lightning current waveform parameters, which are essential for the design of appropriate protection systems, the results have been limited use because of the nature of the collected data. The absence of both the continuous and continuing currents from the collected data, made […]

Approximately 70% of data collected by ITOps is not actionable, either due to lack of timeliness or context, and real-time normalized data stored in a data lake is needed to produce actionable data. Also, AIOps tools are often poorly configured and lead to alert fatigue. The benefit to the partner organization is that they will […]

L’argousier est un petit fruit nordique bien adapté au climat boréal. Son fruit, l’argouse, se distingue des autres petits fruits par la diversité de ses composés bioactifs. Il est notamment riche en caroténoïdes et en polyphénols. Notre projet vise à comparer la composition chimique des fruits de 15 cultivars d’argousier actuellement cultivés au Québec. Il […]

To broadcast a video across the internet, digital video is first encoded to remove the spatial and temporal redundancy. The encoded video data is then transmitted at a lower bit rate or stored in a smaller hard disk without sacrificing too much displaying quality. Various video encoding standards have been developed in last decades. H.264/AVC […]

The objective of this research project is to study the perceptions of internationally educated nurses who are taking a language proficiency test, the Canadian English Language Benchmarks Assessment for Nurses (CELBAN) in order to practice nursing in Canada. Since effective communication is critical to quality healthcare, the CELBAN has an important role in evaluating the […]

Dans un contexte de manque de main d’œuvre pour répondre à la demande croissante des personnes en perte d’autonomie à domicile ou dans les CHSLD, nous prenons les devants et élaborons un produits qui saura augmenter la sécurité et le confort de cette clientèle. Notre projet est de concevoir le cerveau de ce robot aidant […]

The pharmaceutical industry spends more funds on drug detailing than on any other marketing instrument. Previous studies have shown a positive effect of detailing on physicians’ prescription behavior. Similar to the effect of advertising, the effect of drug detailing can last for more than one period. This carry-over effect implies that the decision of how […]

Microwave welding is proposed as a fabrication technique for joining thermoplastic polymer based composites. Microwave welding uses microwave energy and in the present study, a domestic microwave has been proposed to carry out the microwave welding of the thermoplastic components. Thermoplastic materials studied in this project will be considered after referring technical literature and in […]

A hi-directional converter is proposed to implement the integration of electric vehicle to the grid and household electric system. The proposed converter has two stages: a grid-connected convener. and a dc/de converter. The grid-connected converter can operate in three modes. The first of which is a battery charger. The grid-connected wi II control the power […]

This proposal aims to improve the capability, precision, and durability of the Ignition Quality Tester (IQT™). This project includes an experimental investigation of the following areas; Testing of new primary reference fuels, PRFs, and Check fuels, CFs to expand the range of ASTM D6890-11a standard from (33 to 65 DCN) to (15?100 DCN); Investigate experimentally […]

Le Cirque du Soleil dispose d’une expertise pratique importante pour la conception de matelas de reception. Toutefois, due a I’absence de donnees approfondies, cette expertise repose sur peu d’evidence scientifique, rendant difficile la conception de surfaces de reception optimale pour de nouvelles performances acrobatiques. Le stage propose vise a caracteriser experimentalement et simuler numeriquement Ie […]
