Avec la mondialisation des marchés et la forte compétition de l’industrie, les entreprises doivent se démarquer par des produits plus personnalisés tout en maintenant des prix abordables. L’utilisation des concepts de la production de masse personnalisée amène plus de complexité pour l’entreprise étant donné le nombre de pièces de plus en plus élevé. La recherche […]

Concevoir, développer et implémenter un système de surveillance On-line (permanent) dédié à la surveillance du comportement dynamique des machines basses vitesses. Une première phase sera allouée à l’étude de faisabilité, l’état de l’art, le choix de l’architecture (matériel et logiciel), et l’implémentation des protocoles de communication, c’est la mise en place de la chaine d’acquisition. […]

The project is designed to reduce the carbon intensity of ethylene production in Alberta. Ethylene is an important building block for the chemical industry to produce plastics, consumer goods, solvents, and paints. Ethylene is predominantly produced by steam cracking, releasing up to 2.7 kg CO2 eq./ kg of polyethylene produced. In Alberta, the production of […]

As the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect people throughout the world, the inherent possibility of SARS- CoV-2 to mutate and evolve into further novel variants and strains of which considerable dangers and public health risks apply remains prevalent. As the world has already witnessed, these new variants carry the potential to be both more […]

This project will help the drilling industry accept new technologies. This work will focus on create and testing more robust controllers for choke control, applying advanced controller techniques and designing these controllers to accommodate diverse operating conditions in different rigs.

The purpose of the research project is to identify the main soil types found within the FortisBC Electric service territory and identify the best alternatives for power pole installations within each soil type. This information will be made readily available to power line designers for use when selecting the foundation alternative during the design process […]

River management aims to balance environmental needs such as habitat against the protection of infrastructure (e.g. roads, pipelines, property) from flooding, erosion, and other geohazards. The ability to effectively navigate this trade-off stems from a fundamental understanding of how rivers function. However, management projects often rely on highly simplified models of river processes (such as […]

Slips, trips, and falls (STFs) are a major concern in occupational environments, accounting for a significant portion of all reported work-related injuries in Newfoundland and Labrador’s offshore petroleum industry. Perturbation-based training has been shown as an effective measure in developing appropriate postural responses for young and older adults. This proposed research aims to address the […]

Mactaquac Generating Station, the largest hydroelectric power plant in the Maritime provinces, is located near the capital city of Fredericton, on the Saint John River. In the mid-1970s, concrete structures at Mactaquac began to show signs of distress due to Alkali-silica reaction (ASR), resulting in cracks and leakage. The goal of this research project is […]

Designing a P2P Money Exchange platform application that creates a social network based on mutual trust will help individuals trust each other and participate in deals for Peer-to-Peer money exchange. This idea focuses on eliminating the need to use escrow mechanisms and the complexities of handling extra electronic payment and money transfer transactions and mandatory […]

Approximately 70% of software projects do not achieve their goals. The project team offers Conflux, a productivity tool for software project managers, to monitor their projects’ productivity, health, and quality. Conflux helps the development team to be productive, motivated, and quality-oriented and provides early signs to project management to help them avoid project failure.

Distribution of elite germplasm is currently achieved through the transport of gilts and boars by toad or plane. The practice is associated with an increased biosecurity risk and has animal welfare concerns. The transport of the same elite genetics through embryos offers significant advantages: biosecurity is more secure and there are no animal welfare risks […]
