Effective monitoring is an important component in safety and security related applications. Equipment failure, trespassing, theft and vandalism are all regular occurrences that the companies must deal with. These kinds of problems emphasize the importance of designing a state-of-the-art system for monitoring. In this project a system will be devised and trained to detect different […]

For many whales, we still know little of where they occur and even what species exist. This is true for an elusive group of whales known as beaked whales. One method to study these deep-diving, offshore animals is acoustic recordings. Each beaked whale species is thought to produce a unique sound, called a click. Many […]

De récents changements d’orientation dans la recherche et le développement de la robotique ont conduit au développement de robots collaboratifs sûrs et intuitifs. Pourtant, ces robots sont généralement confinés aux tâches d’automatisation traditionnelles et travaillent en mode non collaboratif. Ce projet de recherche vise à étendre les capacités des robots collaboratifs au-delà des applications d’automatisation […]

The main objective of this research is to assess the feasibility of high-power microwave assisted comminution of kimberlite ores. The idea is that high-power treatment for a short time will yield microfractures and result in a reduction in the production of fine particles, therefore improving dense media separation. This study will involve material characterization studies […]

L’objectif général de cette recherche est de mieux saisir la contribution de l’action publique locale et régionale au développement de la région des Laurentides. À partir de trois sous-projets, 1) le rôle du PAGIEPS comme levier de la lutte à la pauvreté et en faveur de l’inclusion sociale dans les Laurentides, 2) les fonds régionaux […]

Medelys Laboratories is a manufacturer of innovative premium products to improve health ailments and the quality of life. Their commercially available liquid collagen-based products for example are important in pain management, regaining bone strength and improving skin elasticity. Over the past two years, they have newfound interest in a novel strain of bacteria that rapidly […]

There are increasing demands from the mining industry for automated measurement of key process parameters so the operators can have more control of the process and rapid reaction to the change of conditions such as feed properties. SRC is developing an automated and online measurement platform which can detect and quantify active clays, water hardness […]

This study is focusing on using real demand (number of passengers in each station) and historical weather data to find the best (optimal) location of charging station and their charging duration for a bus route that deploys battery electric buses. In addition, this study tries to find the best arrangement of using holding points for […]

Recent years have witnessed a boom in the construction of modern high-rise buildings in megacities around the world. Since many of these megacities are also located in seismically active regions, it is important to design a high-rise building that can effectively withstand both wind and earthquake loads. Nonetheless, in current practice, the design of high-rise […]

Ce projet vise à créer un guide d’accompagnement à l’intention des intervenantes communautaires qui oeuvrent auprès des parents afin de les soutenir dans la mise en place d’un environnement et de pratiques familiales propices au développement de la littératie de leurs enfants âgés de 0 à 5 ans, en accordant une place centrale à la […]

Au Canada, en 2019, 35 000 patients ont subi un arrêt cardiaque. Le taux de survie est seulement de 10% et seulement 8% des patients auront un état neurologique leur permettant de retourner à la maison. L’objectif de notre projet global est de développer un système automatisé de gestion de la réanimation cardio-respiratoire. Le développement […]

An excessive amount of end-of-life (EOL) textile in Canadian thrift stores have been reported since the first wave of COVID-19 in March 2020. The donated clothes have gradually filled the thrift stores and a management plan is urgently needed. The quantity and composition of EOL textile, as well as the seasonal variations, are poorly understood. […]
