Étude du comportement en flambement des cornières en carton

Les cornières en carton sont des produits d’emballage. L’entreprise Abzac et l’Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières travaillent conjointement à rendre ces produits plus écoresponsables et à développer des essais pour évaluer leur performance. La norme actuelle pour évaluer les cornières en compression présente une lacune majeure en négligeant le flambement, sous-estimant ainsi la performance réelle […]

High-speed assessment of bread quality through optimal non-contact methods

Being a bio-process, the quality of yeast-fermented bread is highly dependent on several factors such as temperature, static time, and humidity as well as on the type of flour. As such an active control/feedback strategy is often needed to monitor and optimize the baking process. Many studies have focused on post-baking the assessment of the […]

Management of Powdery Scab of Potato in Alberta

In 2022, the potato industry contributed $2.87B to the Canadian economy and $2.31B to the Alberta economy. Powdery scab has been present in Alberta for decades but because of no above-ground symptoms it has been ignored and no registered products are available to mitigate it. Syngenta suspectsthat the pathogen’s population levels are increasing because of […]

Vessel-mounted lidar for navigational depthfinding, underwater bathymetry and environmental assessment: Data Collection and Analysis

Sonar, a widely used technology aboard vessels for tasks such as depth measurement and fish identification, has drawn significant environmental concerns, particularly regarding its impact on marine mammals like whales and dolphins due to its high-frequency sound emissions. In response, Envisioning Labs, an innovative company based in Vancouver, has developed a groundbreaking solution: a quieter […]

Forest Carbon Storage in Southwest British Columbia: a remote-sensing approach to scale from individual trees to the landscape level

Addressing the harmful effects of climate change presents an urgent challenge for society. The intern will assess the amount of carbon storage within the forests of southwestern British Columbia in order to facilitate carbon storage accounting. To do this, the intern will conduct forest inventories to measure the diameter and height and identify the species […]
