The proposed project aims to develop simple thermal resistance network models using experimental and CFD data to predict the performance of conventional circular sectioned heat pipes and thermosyphons. Heat pipes are a type of enhanced heat transfer device that uses a continuous cycle of boiling and condensing of a fluid to transfer heat at a […]

This project will establish the framework to extract and transform clinical data into a research dataset to conduct world-leading Comparative Effectiveness Research (CER) around concussion. The research and analyses from this dataset will inform patient care for patients with concussion and answer key questions that have healthcare and policy implications for concussion management. The framework […]

Le complexe tourbeux de Lanoraie fait l’objet de conflits d’usage de l’eau depuis plusieurs années et l’évolution récente de la tourbière montre une transformation très marquée de la végétation depuis 70 ans. La hausse des pompages pour l’irrigation des cultures de pommes de terre, combinée à une succession d’étés secs, a exacerbé les conflits d’usage […]

L’objectif du projet est d’automatiser la reconnaissance des signaux acoustiques et vibratoires d’une part, et des signaux de décharges partielles d’autres part, et ceci à l’aide d’un modèle d’apprentissage profond. Cette reconnaissance est la première étape du développement d’un modèle de pronostic et de suivi de l’évolution de la dégradation des alternateurs. Ces signaux sont […]

The project aims to facilitate the research and development of new drugs by applying machine learning and deep learning to further develop an AI-assisted molecular search database. The company has an internal dataset holding more than a billion molecules. Two main challenges are keeping the molecule catalog updated and Searching for the desired molecule or […]

AJ Min Inc. is developing a novel technology, not currently patented, to recover gold from tailings material. The technology requires little energy, little to no reagents, and little to no additional water. Past testwork has indicated that this technology can recover significant amounts of gold from some tailings material, and that the recovered gold can […]

In warm climates warm temperatures cause thermal stratification in hydropower reservoirs inhibiting mixing and leading to deoxygenation of waters at depth (hypolimnium). Turbines withdrawing water at depth result in low dissolved oxygen (DO) in the downstream flow having a large negative impact on the downstream riverine ecosystem. Legislation in the USA and elsewhere now requires […]

This project proposes the use of carboxylated cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) – developed and manufactured by Anomera Inc. from Canadian forest – as nano-inclusions to tailor a set of properties in cement and concrete composites towards enhanced performance. Due to its unique properties, CNC can significantly enhance the mechanical performance of cement and concrete composites. The […]

Earthquakes pose significant risks to many Canadian homeowners in British Columbia, Quebec, and Eastern Ontario. Many homeowners in these regions have not purchased earthquake insurance for their homes, and recent surveys suggest that most Quebec homeowners are unaware that earthquake loss is not covered in their general insurance plans. If a devastating earthquake were to […]

Les Industries Show-Canada inc. ont des problèmes de gestion de projets relativement à la communication. Les divers départements, dont l’ingénierie, le dessin et la production, n’ont pas de communication efficace entre eux. Il n’y a donc aucun suivi des différents échéanciers pour les différents projets. Ceci créé des problèmes au niveau des livrables que la […]

Les troubles musculosquelettiques (TMS) sont une préoccupation importante au Québec et diverses avenues de prévention sont mises de l’avant pour en diminuer leurs impacts : formation du personnel, conception d’aménagements et/ou d’équipements adaptés, ajustement des exigences de production, etc. Dernièrement, les exosquelettes semblent susciter l’engouement pour prévenir ces risques dans les milieux de travail. Cependant, […]

Molecular generative methods are at the heart of our computational platform. We use cutting edge deep neural networks in order to generate unseen molecules based on existing conditions or molecular space. Since external projects typically require different architectures, we are continuously expanding our generative methods toolbox with new approaches. This project aims to augment our […]
