The integration of large-scale renewable energy sources in power grid is challenging and requires new power transmission infrastructure such as high voltage Direct Current (DC) transmission and interconnected AC-DC grids. Real-time power system digital simulators are essential for the development of new AC-DC grid technologies. The aim of this MITACS project is to develop numerically […]

As industry undergoes revolutionary changes with the integration of advanced controls, intelligent sensors and the machine to machine connectivity the limitations and expectations of autonomous systems are quickly rising. Well the autonomy of manufacturing robots is proving to be a key growth factor for efficient manufacturing, a new frontier is presenting itself. The next challenge […]

Small modular reactors have been identified by the Canadian government as a “source of safe, clean, affordable energy […] for Canada and Canadians”. Several of these reactor concepts rely on molten salt heat exchange loops, rather than traditional water-based heat exchangers. A key issue is that molten-salt driven corrosion is much less understood. This is […]

The project focuses on using novel method to maximize oil recovery. It is carried out through both experiment study in core scale and simulation research in field scale. The new knowledge that will be accrued will be the culmination of a truly collaborative approach. First and foremost, Canada and Newfoundland and Labrador will gain immensely […]

Cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) are attractive eco-friendly and renewable materials for replacing the petroleum-based synthetic fibers in high-performance composites applications. Performance Biofilaments has developed a proprietary processing technology for producing CNFs from sustainably harvested Canadian wood fiber, using mechanical means without the need for additional chemical or enzymatic pre-treatment. The process thus allows for large volume […]

5G and beyond mobile networks are expected to support a variety of emerging use-cases, such as holographic telepresence, immersive extended-reality, cloud gaming, and autonomous driving. Such a diverse set of services imposes strict requirements on the mobile network along several dimensions, such as throughput, latency, and reliability. Network slicing has been envisaged as a key […]

This project seeks to advance the discovery of future cancer therapies by comparing healthy cells with abnormal cancer cells. By examining how proteins, the key functional components of cells, change between normal and diseased states, the intern(s) will help identify novel targets that may point to new therapeutic opportunities. The work uses established, quantitative proteomic […]

Fondée en 2000 et basée à Québec, Photonique indie Canada inc. (ancien nom : TeraXion inc.) est reconnu comme l’un des principaux fabricants mondiaux de technologies photoniques de pointe, notamment dans les domaines des réseaux de Bragg à fibre optique (FBG), des lasers à largeur de raie étroite et de l’optique intégrée, son équipe dédiée […]

Recreational fishing is seeing increasing numbers of fish caught and released, either because individual fishers choose not to harvest for personal or conservation reasons, or because fishing regulations allow few numbers or sizes of fish to be harvested. However, if released fish become less catchable for future fishers, this may lead to decreasing catch rate, […]

The rapid growth of artificial intelligence workloads, cloud computing, and resource-disaggregated services is significantly increasing traffic inside data centers, pushing conventional electrical switching architectures toward limits in bandwidth density, power consumption, and I/O scalability [1]. Electrical switching fabrics require multiple tiers and repeated opticalelectrical-optical conversions, which increase latency, energy consumption, and operational complexity as network […]

(Bciti+), is a Canadian technology company specializing in smart community platforms that connect citizens, cities, and organizations through a universal digital citizen card and an AI concierge called ATNA. Its mission is to enhance citizen & membership engagement and trust while enabling services & data-driven, transparent decision-making for public […]

1) Aperçu du problème de recherche : CGP-Expal exploite à Bromont une usine de fabrication de papiers anti-glissement destinés à l’industrie du transport. En conditions hivernales, l’usine fait face à des difficultés opérationnelles récurrentes qui l’obligent à réduire la vitesse de ligne d’environ 20 %. Cette réduction est attribuable à certains procédés plus lents durant […]
