Le projet s’intitule, « Vision Aéronautique Québec 2030 : Key Science and Technology Drivers ». L’objectif est d’identifier et analyser les innovations technologiques qui transformeront l’industrie aéronautique, en établissant une arborescence des différentes filières au niveau de la technologie et de l’innovation au sein de l’industrie aéronautique québécoise. Le stagiaire débutera par un travail de […]

Le projet de recherche portera sur une alimentation DEL (Diodes électroluminescentes) intelligente pour l’éclairage de bâtiments publics, d’enseignes, etc. Le stagiaire, dont le mandat sera de réaliser la partie électrique du produit, va devoir travailler en unisson avec une équipe multidisciplinaire composée d’ingénieurs et techniciens provenant de domaines comme la mécanique ou de l’informatique. Sa […]

The proposed research project is to develop and implement a motor drive based on new semiconductor technologies such SiCMOS and GaN. This motor drive will be used in eVox bikes developed and commercialized by Procycle. The objective is to increasing the operating voltage in the system from 100V to 250V. This high voltage device will […]

Le projet de recherche porte sur l’amélioration des performances d’un vélo à assistance électrique (VAE) au niveau des interactions homme-machine. L’objectif général est de rendre la combinaison de la traction humaine à celle de la machine électrique la plus naturelle possible. Afin de bien comprendre les interactions qui existent entre ces deux tractions, il est […]

The Galiano Conservation Association aims to educate the public about Rockfish Conservation areas, and monitor fisher compliance and rockfish populations, to enhance rockfish recovery around Galiano Island. Rockfish are a threatened and overfished group of fishes native to BC’s coast. Given that the underwater realm is toxic to humans, subtidal monitoring data is limited. However […]

Machine maintenance is a necessary task to keep production lines or individual machines running in a healthy condition. Predictive Maintenance (PdM) can effectively reduce maintenance cost and machine down time. However, it requires online machine condition monitoring systems to obtain the relevant parameters of the machines. Conventional distributed-control-system (DCS) -based monitoring systems use wires/cables to […]

NXTSens has developed an implantable continuous monitoring, stand-alone and potentially mass-producible microsensor for accurate monitoring of tissue pressure and temperature in damaged limb muscles to better diagnose ACS. The proposed research will involve several sub-projects that include: i) develop appropriate surgical models for the accurate and reproducible placement of the microsensors in rodent compartments; ii) […]

AV Nackawic has experienced significant variations in the quality of its final product, including, pulp viscosity. There are many variables, both quality parameters of raw materials such as, wood species, chip size, and process conditions such as P- factor, EA, H-factor, play a key role in the overall quality of the final product. Due to […]

Salt marshes are important coastal ecosystems because they provide many services to surrounding areas. Due to the high fertility of salt marsh soil, they have a long history of being converted to farmland in Maritime Canada. In recent years, there has been growing interest in restoring salt marshes to protect against coastal erosion, mitigate sea […]

A parasite present in the Bras d’Ors Lake in Cape Breton, NS has closed the oyster aquaculture and wild fishery in Cape Breton since the initial outbreak in 2002. This parasite has also affected oysters in the Eastern US. The industry in the US has survived and is stable in part due to the production […]

This project aims at designing and implementing an integrated control system for an audio power amplifier system for portable devices, having good efficiency and sound quality. The proposed design controls a DC-DC converter to produce a varying power supply to a class AB output stage. The varying power supply tracks the input audio signal and […]

Pacific salmon are important from ecological, economic, social and cultural perspectives, but many species in the Salish Sea have seen drastic decrease in marine survival rate in recent decades, likely linked to reduced survival of the young stages of salmon due to a combination of environmental, food web changes, and human impacts. This activity will […]
