Development and Optimization of an Adaptive Virtual Synchronous Generator (VSG) for Stabilizing Power Grids with High Renewable Energy Penetration

The proposed research project aims to improve the stability of electrical grids, which are increasingly powered by renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, by developing a Virtual Synchronous Generator (VSG). This virtual generator would allow grids with low natural inertia, due to the presence of power electronics (e.g., inverters), to better respond to […]

Improvement in 3D printability and functional properties of plant and algal proteins by cold plasma technology

The three-dimensional food printing (3DFP) offers the food industry and consumers customizable food preparation and manufacturing possibilities. Several food products including plant proteins have been utilized in 3DFP applications. However, the printability of plant proteins needs to be enhanced to develop novel food structures with improved stability. Our previous research showed that atmospheric cold plasma […]

Enabling Customization of OS Memory Eviction Policies

The project aims to optimize memory management in operating systems by allowing user-space applications to design custom memory eviction policies. Traditional memory management policies, embedded in operating systems, often perform well on average but fail to deliver optimal performance for specific applications. This research will explore the use of eBPF technology to create more tailored […]

Une plate-forme interactive pour l’analyse des données génétiques et climatiques

Advancements in DNA sequencing technology throughout the 1980s triggered a transformative shift in evolutionary biology. This groundbreaking period led to the emergence of the field of phylogeography, introduced by John Avise and colleagues just over three decades ago. This highly integrative discipline delves into the intricate connections between xthe history of Earth, ecology, and the […]

Global Health Governance in South India

Global Health Governance is a hot topic these days but it seldom reaches the dalitbahujans (low caste and tribal peoples, the majority in India). Pairing industry with global health agendas is the wave of the future and can be more fruitful if culturally sensitive. Eight years ago, India embarked on the National Rural Health Mission […]

Fusarium avenaceum as a pathogen of cereals and pulses in Europe and Canada

Fusarium avenaceum causes Fusarium Head Blight, a devastating disease affecting cereal crops, and in Root Rot in pulses; diseases that significantly impact Canadian and European farmers. Different strains of F. avenaceum can harbor strain-specific biosynthetic gene clusters that produce mycotoxins which give rise to particularly virulent strains. In this context, the intent of this Globalink […]

Scorched Earth: The impact of increased wildfire activity on soils and associated ecosystems

We will investigate the impacts of wildfires on natural nanoparticles (NPs) in soil and water in two different regions: central Newfoundland, Canada, and the Landes de Gascogne forest, France. The Landes de Gascogne forest experienced significant wildfires in 2022, particularly impacting two major sites: “La Teste de Buch” and “Landiras.” The Landes region is characterized […]
