Dans ce projet de recherche, l’organisme partenaire, la Fondation Jasmin Roy vise à dresser, avec le soutien de la chercheure principale et des stagiaires, un portrait du bien-être à l’école et des pratiques de soutien aux parcours d’apprentissage en contexte COVID. Les consignes sociosanitaires imposent certaines limites aux interactions en classe. Alors que certaines pratiques […]

Newly developed additive manufacturing (AM) techniques, also known as 3D-printing, are able to fabricate complex geometry components at a relatively high deposition rate, the lowest possible number of production cycles, and minimum materials waste in contrast with the conventional subtractive fabrication techniques. By drastic reduction in the fabrication time and production steps, minimizing the on-hold […]

Peu de connaissances existent sur la quantification des émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) et sur les pistes concrètes de réduction à l’échelle d’entreprises d’économie sociale oeuvrant en gestion des matières résiduelles. De telles démarches doivent être soutenues par une politique de développement durable pour implanter ces actions à long terme. Ce projet […]

This project aims at developing an automated system for water sampling along the coast of Nova Scotia using a swarm of flying robots. Currently, water is sampled by hand by teams of 2-5 people each on a number of boats, that must regularly travel to different sites, collect samples, and bring them to land for […]

The Limits of Solidarity is an original transmedia research/creation project for new screens, creatively and critically investigating various practices and projects of global solidarity that engage with issues of gender and sexuality. Using imaginative hybrids of fictive, experimental and documentary forms (in the expanded essay tradition of such artists as Farocki, Biemann, Fung) and in […]

The research aims to help the partner company, Analytic Design Group, assess the market potential for developing an Idea Management application, use experience-based analysis to investigate the functionality of an innovative idea management application, and to evaluate the expected returns for undertaking this project. This is carried out by researching the software market for similar […]

The recent rapid growth of web-based applications and information systems has increased the risk exposure of databases and, thus, the security and protection of data from internal and external threats is more crucial than ever. Damage and misuse of data affect not only a single user or application, but may have disastrous consequences on an […]

Le bitume est un composé essentiel des enrobés bitumineux qui sont utilisés pour la construction de chaussées. Il s’agit d’un produit issu de la distillation du pétrole brut et qui n’est donc pas renouvelable. Il est important de trouver des alternatives à l’utilisation du bitume afin de rendre l’industrie des chaussées plus écoresponsable. Au Québec, […]

A sailor needs to obtain real-time information about the status of the sailboat and also derive an accurate approximation of the behaviour of the surrounding environment, in order to safely and successfully sail a boat. We also aim to investigate how providing vital knowledge using an immersive approach will affect the cognitive load on the […]

From women-only taxi companies in New Delhi to smokeless stoves in Uganda, innovation can transform the lives of women and girls around the globe. While it is well known that social innovation and women’s empowerment are each processes that drive change, there is little research to date connecting social innovation to the empowerment of women […]

This research work will establish a systematic workflow for analyzing transient equilibrium foamy oil phase behavior by coupling the CCEC tests, depletion rate and presence of water-in-oil emulsion which are seldom performed for heavy oil. It will provide a strong connection and comparison with previously studies which was conducted in the absence of water-in-oil emulsion. […]

Le projet vise à développer un dispositif intelligent permettant l’autodiagnostic et l’auto-orientation de personnes formatrices qui souhaitent développer leurs compétences professionnelles et plus spécifiquement leurs compétences dans l’usage du numérique pour enseigner et apprendre. Ce dispositif innovant s’appuyera sur un moteur intelligent rigoureux fondé sur un cadre théorique en éducation validé. La stagière contribuera à […]
