Control of a Self-Organizing Network of Quadrotor Vehicles Interacting with Real-Time Acoustic Signals

Networks are pervasive in our world. From migrating birds flying in formation, to social groups, wireless networks, world-wide web, the examples are endless. Migrating birds, such as the Canada goose, are a good example of a network between agents where information is communicated based on real-time musical (acoustic) signals. Inspired by this example, the research […]

Defining the sphere of influence: the distribution of non-vent megafauna around active hydrothermal vents

Interest in mining deposits formed at deep-sea hydrothermal vents for minerals that are required for the transition to clean energy technologies has increased. However, animal communities at hydrothermal vents and the surrounding deep-sea have not been well characterized. Many of the animals at hydrothermal vent sites, such as deep-water corals and sponges, are indicators of […]

Linear driver PAM4 optical transceivers

Axonal Networks and Concordia University are working together to develop low-power, high-throughput optical transceivers using linear drive techniques. This technique avoids extensive in-transceiver digital signal processing and clock/data recovery in favour of modest equalization, relying on the linearity of the channel and the equalization capabilities of the host chips at the ends of the optical […]

Using Remote Sensing and GIS to Better Understand a Copper Porphyry Prospect (Peru)

Elida is a newly discovered copper porphyry prospect located in Central Peru. The overall copper reserves are unknown and cannot be estimated from field inspection alone. The proposed research by the intern is aimed at helping to solve this ‘puzzle’ by using and developing remote sensing (RS) and geographic information systems (GIS) techniques for this […]

Création de bases de données et de réseaux de neurones convolutifs pour l’analyse granulométrique par photographies

Au cours de la dernière décennie, les réseaux de neurones convolutifs (CNN) ont révolutionné l’analyse d’images dans plusieurs domaines du génie. Toutefois, on retrouve encore peu d’utilisation de CNN en géotechnique. Une des applications les plus évidentes pour les CNN dans ce domaine est la classification des sols et la réalisation d’analyses granulométriques à partir […]

Simplified technique for measuring ammonia emissions during manure management: A validation study

Manure storage and spreading release various air emissions, including ammonia (NH3), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and particulate matter. Among these, ammonia is the most common gas emitted, which can harm air quality, human health, and the environment. High ammonia levels contribute to air pollution by forming fine particulate matter, which harms human health and […]

Développement et validation des semelles en lattices imprimées en 3D pour décharger et traiter les ulcères du pied chez des patients diabétiques

Chez les personnes diabétiques, la marche régulière permettrait de réduire la mortalité, aide à contrôler la glycémie et diminue l’insulinorésistance. Cependant, elles risquent davantage de développer des ulcères aux pieds, pouvant conduire à l’amputation. La prévention et le traitement précoce de ces problèmes incluent des chaussures ou semelles optimisant la répartition de la pression plantaire. […]
