Research of metalic organic frameworks (MOFs) in direct air capture application. MOFs are a class of porous materials, often crystalline in nature, that are made of inorganic nodes bridged by organic linkers. MOFs are highly tunable porous materials, and the metal nodes can be metal ions, chains, or clusters. Given that MOFs can be constructed […]

Since prior research on performance feedback has primarily focused on the effects of underperformance, our understanding of the mechanisms through which positive performance feedback affects firm innovation is relatively limited. To address this gap, we will explore why, how, and when positive performance feedback spurs firm innovation and technological development. Drawing on previous studies on […]

The world’s economy is changing at a rapid rate. Resources and population growth are becoming concentrated in a small number of larger cities, while other cities have become “left behind”. The dissatisfaction of living in poorer economic conditions and the resentment toward economically successful cities, has prompted resident political discontent. Left-behind places are also prone […]

The development of lunar rovers requires research in terramechanics to understand the interactions between wheels and loose terrain. While extensive terramechanics research has been conducted on Earth, few studies have focused on adapting these findings to the Moon’s different gravity environment. This project will focus on the Granular Scaling Law (GSL), a recently utilized mechanical […]

The proposed project aims to develop a new method for finding unusual patterns in data represented as graphs, such as social networks, communication networks, or financial transactions. We proposed a novel method Graph Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks(G-KANs) to improve how we detect anomalies, which are important for identifying security threats or fraudulent activities. This project will help […]

The proposed project aims to identify functional brain differences between people with different types of central disorders of hypersomnolence (narcolepsy type 1, narcolepsy type 2, and idiopathic hypersomnia) By combining data from over 1,800 participants from research sites across 21 countries, the project will reveal key brain differences that enhance our understanding of the underlying […]

In this project, the intern student is expected to develop develop a data collection tool that can collect data traffic from IoT devices and label them accordingly. The intern student will then use the tool to collect and label traffic from over 100 IoT devices.

Rolling is an important process in metal forming. Through the rolling process, metal billets are turned into sheets or strips for use or further processing. Due to worsening global environmental conditions and higher demands for industrial products, lightweight design has become a trend in fields like automotive and aerospace. Traditional rolled metal sheets and strips […]

In Networked Control Systems (NCS), computation is outsourced to an external party, which we call a controller. This type of service has been gaining popularity in recent years. However, there is the threat of the controller wanting to read the commands passed onto it, thus violating confidentiality. To avoid this, we seek to incorporate cryptographic […]

This research project aims to analyze and compare the environmental impact of various architectures used in activity recognition systems, with a focus optimizing the balance between (enough) quality of service (QoS) and sustainability. Specifically, the project will focus on the data life-cycle that flows through the three distinct architectural approaches—device-based, edge-based, and cloud-based— considering the […]

We aim to develop new techniques in 5-axis Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining and 5-axis 3D printing, which are advanced methods used in modern manufacturing. Our project focuses on creating collision detection algorithms to prevent accidents with expensive machinery, ensuring safety remains a top priority. We also plan to develop tool path planning algorithms to […]

Le stage contribuera à un projet de recherche visant à développer un programme de prévention précoce des cancers professionnels auprès d’une population d’adolescents faiblement scolarisés empruntant le Parcours de formation axée sur l’emploi au Québec. Ce programme vise à préparer ces jeunes au marché du travail en proposant des stages de pré emploi dans un […]
