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 […]
