Most large companies use software systems that were developed over decades. They comprise systems that are in different programing languages and must all communicate with one another to solve bUSiness problems. As these systems become increasingly large and complex, there is a need to develop tools and techniques to ensure their quality. Current state-of-the-art techniques […]

Environmental regulations that aim to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from new ships will become effective by 2025 [1]. A lot of solutions are evaluated by the industry to reduce their emissions including shore power, a process that aims to reduce the ships emissions in ports by turning ship engines off and supplying the ship […]

Vaccine antigen production is a process that entails numerous variables. In order to have a consistent and robust process, monitoring of process parameters and controlling output variables within a certain range is the best practice. To accomplish this objective, analytical tools are used, on-line, off-line, at line. Real time monitoring of the processes is advantageous […]

Crushing and grinding rock is the largest consumer of energy at a mining operation. Breaking rock by expansion within is a lower energy process than crushing or impact from outside, since rock tensile strength is significantly lower than rock compressive strength. This research intends to explore and develop a novel method for rock comminution using […]

The telecommunication industry is rapidly evolving towards providing faster services to accommodate the global surge in network demand. The next-generation (5G) network aims to increase the current network speed by more than twentyfold. This transition brings enormous benefits for the economy and society. A main challenge faced by network providers, however, is that the existing […]

Able Innovations is creating novel technology that eliminates the need for human involvement in transfers of individuals with restricted mobility replacing existing sling transfers systems that require significant physical labour by clinical staff that frequently results in staff injury and missed work. Sling systems are also undignified for the patient and can injure the patient […]

Antirouille Métropolitain est une compagnie québécoise fondée en 1976. Depuis ses débuts, elle prend l’innovation très aux sérieux. Œuvrant dans un marché très compétitif où elle est le chef de file, elle doit sans cesse chercher des moyens de s’améliorer. La méthodologie d’opération préconisé exige des aires de travails spacieux et une quantité minimale de […]

Vibration analysis is probably the most widely used technique to perform health monitoring of mechanical machinery. Specifically, we are interested in monitoring ‘Vibrating screens’, machines that are for example used by the mining industry to sort aggregate by size. Over the last 10 years the research group of Dr. v. Mohrenschildt has developed hardware, software […]

Le nombre de jeunes entreprises ainsi que les structures qui les accompagnent se sont multipliées ces dernières années au Québec. Plus que jamais, tous les acteurs (entrepreneurs, structures d’accompagnement, décideurs publics, etc.) ont besoin de parler un langage commun, d’avoir une vue d’ensemble et d’accéder à des statistiques et des analyses pour prendre des décisions […]

Tourism, nature-based recreation and residential development within the Bow Valley (BV) of Alberta’s Rocky Mountains are all valued and continually increasing. The BV is also important for large mammals as it provides habitat for iconic species like grizzly bears to live in and move through. The Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative (Y2Y) is dedicated to […]

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-ionizing modality; therefore, there is no known damage on human tissue as opposed to ionizing imaging modalities, such as X-ray. Interventional procedures take long time and in order to prevent ionization, interventional MRI is very promising. On the other hand, there are safety concerns because of the possible temperature […]

Le projet présenté ici vise le développement d’une technique de caractérisation lithologique automatisée adaptée pour les carottes de forage en exploration minière. La technique sera basée sur divers capteurs (optiques, chimiques et autres) ainsi que la microscopie optique. Les données obtenues (big-data) serviront à l’optimisation des procédés de traitement des minerais ainsi que la bonne […]
