Mon projet consiste a se pencher sur l’etude d’un systeme de planification presentement en place dans une organisation se specialisant dans les travaux d’asphaltage. Presentement le systeme en place est plutot de type informel et repose sur l’expertise d’une seule personne qui est le proprietaire.Donc, mon mandat consistera a analyser et de faire un diagnostique […]

Mining induced stress in the area around tunnel openings represents a major design consideration in today’s potash mines. The actual induced stress is currently monitored using an array of techniques derived from the hard rock mining industry, one of the key assumptions being linear-elastic deformation behaviour of the rock. When using these methods in an […]

L’automatisation des tâches de fabrication dans les laboratoires de prothèses dentaires revêt un intérêt considérable, à la fois pour les techniciens et pour les patients. En effet, une partie importante du travail consiste en des tâches répétitives, longues et qui exigent un effort de concentration et de minutie soutenu. Par conséquent, il existe une grande […]

This research project aims to expand Symgery’s line of surgical training products by simulating cutting and tearing of physical models in real-time. Cutting and tearing of simulated models typically requires additional computational overhead due to post-processing of the volumetric mesh. However, our approach will render the process to be more efficient by using a hybrid […]

L’usage excessif des plastiques à l’échelle mondiale engendre de grands défis liés au control de la pollution, particulièrement dans les océans, mais aussi au niveau de l’empreinte carbonique de leur production. Dans le contexte de crise sanitaire actuel due à la COVID-19, les équipements de protection personnel sont nécessaires et leurs utilisation, obligatoire, a augmenté […]

Many drugs, such as those made of antibodies, are produced using cells from bacteria and other organisms. Companies such as BioVectra use this approach to produce antibody drugs efficiently and cost-effectively. At the end of the production process, residue such as protein from the “host” cells (called host cell proteins, or HCPs) must be removed […]

Orthotropic bridge deck is lightweight steel deck, typically fabricated by welding “ribs” to the underside of a flat steel plate. The potential benefits of these deck systems are compelling. For example, from 1991 to 1993, the deteriorating deck on the Champlain Bridge was replaced with orthotropic steel deck panels weighing 25% less than the original […]

Whether it is for research, development or diagnostics, life sciences typically require the quantitation and characterization of samples with assays that classically measure molecules one at a time. Considering that the development and execution of such assays are time consuming and requires considerable investment, the uses of multiplexed analysis would be highly advantageous. Mass spectrometry […]

Medicinal mushrooms possess compounds with beneficial properties, including anti-microbial, anti-tumoral, and anti-inflammatory, which support their role and application in current healthcare practices. In this proposal, we will measure the impact and role of extracts from medicinal mushrooms provided by Wake Network Inc. to identify how immune cells and an animal model change their response to […]

This project is about better understanding talents and managers to help them reach their professional goals. For professionals, it might be about growing their career, getting their dream job, or finding the most efficient way of getting it. For managers, it might be about discovering interesting talents to join their team, or finding the most […]

Hydro-Québec faces numerous challenges to inspect and maintain its infrastructures. Robotics used for infrastructure inspection can lead valuable gains in efficiency. However, large-scale adoption of inspection robots requires higher autonomy levels, like the capacity to autonomously inspect specific assets. AI-based object detection and localization is a key capability to complete autonomous inspections with robots. This […]

In this project, we propose the use of blockchains to provide reliability, security, and transparency for collecting and querying IoT data in the energy sector. In particular, we will implement and evaluate our blockchain solution for enabling transactions in local energy markets, where homeowners have the capacity to generate energy (through renewables), stock energy (through […]
