Les propriétés des matériaux sont intimement liées à leur organisation interne ou microstructure. Pour les aciers constituant les ailes de turbines de centrales hydrauliques, on pense que la microstructure idéale pour augmenter leur durée de vie, consiste dans le mélange de deux phases: martensite et austénite. Cependant, l’austénite n’existe pas dans le matériau de départ […]

Our goal is to research, develop and commercialize an advanced biosensor that detects many different pathogen infections and immunity for diseases such as COVID-19. We are using a new sensor technology realized with semiconductor manufacturing technology (silicon photonics) and integrated optics and electronics. Our hope is that our sensors can provide answers to individuals, to […]

Plants including Cannabis host distinct beneficial microbial communities on and inside their tissues designated the plant microbiota from the moment that they are planted into the soil as seed. Understanding the microbial partnerships with Cannabis has the potential to affect agricultural practices by improving plant fitness and production yield of Cannabinoids. Much less is known […]

The proposed project involves the development of a microgrid energy management system (or microgrid control unit – MCU) to synchronize the actions of devices such as batteries, solar panels, and other generators to achieve increased energy savings. The MCU will allow all devices to interact and exchange information seamlessly, in a “plug and play” fashion. […]

The oral history interviews will preserve for posterity first-person perspectives of the careers and achievements of eminent Canadian engineers since the 1960s. Interviewees will be individuals who have made significant contribution to Canadian achievements in biological, civil, electrical, geotechnical, mechanical, and dam engineering fields. As much as possible, they will represent a broad diversity of […]

To decarbonise, the participation of the oil industry is key. Rather than process crude oils, refineries are able to co-process biogenic feedstocks alongside their fossil fuel to reduce the carbon intensities of the fuels they produced. Our project will evaluate what’s the impact of adding these biogenic feedstocks to the existing refining units by long […]

Les producteurs de turbines hydroélectriques optimisent sans cesse leurs équipements pour des raisons concurrentiels, économiques et environnementales. C’est le cas des turbines hydroélectrique qui sont poussé à la limite de leur spécification pour répondre aux besoins du marché. Cette réalité augmente considérablement les risques de défaillance des composantes de la turbine. Estimer le niveau de […]

Petroleum hydrocarbons (comprise crude oil, gasoline, and diesel) are an important energy resource used by industries and human. At the same time, contamination by oil and oil products has caused serious harm to humans and the environment and increasing attention has been paid to the development and implementation of innovative technologies for the removal of […]

Sommaire de la vision Espace Données Réunir les données de tous les domaines d’affaires des organisations scolaires du Québec dans le but de positionner la GRICS comme référence provinciale dans la valorisation, l’accès et la gouvernance des données en éducation. Objectif de la solution Espace Données Offrir aux Centres de services scolaires, aux commissions scolaires, […]

The project is part of a desire to address the school dropout issue, particularly in multi-ethnic and disadvantaged communities. Despite the implementation of several universal interventions in Quebec, the drop-out rate remains high in numerous areas. In the Eastern Townships area, a partnership between the Sherbrooke Regional School Board and the Université de Sherbrooke in […]

Most Canadians live in the urban regions, and most Canadian cities receive snow every year. For instance, Montreal receives about 2.3 meter of snow every year. This snow accommodates various human-made pollutants in cities and accumulates over long Canadian winter. This application to support an intern which will be involved in a collaborative project with […]

3D laser scanners are common tools for data collection and monitoring in mining. However, there is a knowledge gap concerning how to effectively deploy this technology in underground mines. The objective of this research is to explore the applications of mobile- and cart-based scanning systems MineFly and CartScan manufactured by the partner organization in underground […]
