Driving automation is becoming increasingly available with the advancement in sensors and computational power. The next generation, i.e., conditional automation, allows drivers to engage in other activities like sleeping. If the system cannot operate in certain conditions due to limitations, the driver is required to takeover vehicle control. However, sleepy drivers might not be fit […]

Human health is impacted every day by metal contact, ranging from direct contact with metal surfaces to exposure to corrosion by-products, nanoparticles, or ions. The interaction of human proteins with these materials remains poorly understood, but metal-protein contact has been implicated as the cause of many adverse physiological reactions, such as allergies, contact dermatitis, and […]

Eye movements and visuospatial memory constantly interact to shape an efficient representation of the world. The behavioral link between eye movements and holistic scene memory has been extensively demonstrated, yet it remains elusive how visual item memory dynamically unfolds in active vision. Understanding the interplay between eye movements and memory, and identifying its neural mechanisms, […]

The proposed project aims to use a non-invasive method of analyzing brain chemistry, known as proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy, to characterize changes in specific brain metabolites that are indicative of disease-processes occurring in the brain as a consequence of repeated subconcussive head trauma in high school football athletes. This project offers an opportunity for biomarker […]

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries occur frequently in field/court sports and often require surgical reconstruction (ACLR) and a long rehabilitation that can last 12 months or more. Return to sport (RTS) criteria are not well defined and this may be one factor contributing to the high ACL reinjury rate and sport participation attrition. A central […]

Ce projet de recherche vise a etudier la privatisation des espaces publics a Hanoi et l’impact qu’elle peut avoir sur l’accessibilite des citoyens aces espaces-la. Sous un contexte d’urbanisation rapide et de croissance demographique dans plusieurs villes au Vietnam, l’analyse de ces enjeux devient incontournable et demande plus d’attention de la part de la communaute […]

Comprendre aujourd’hui l’origine de la supraconductivité demeure un problème fondamental essentiel à la société, car les matériaux quantiques comme les supraconducteurs promettent de révolutionner divers secteurs en tension, notamment l’énergie, les transports et l’information. Le stage présenté vise à élucider un mystère clé de la supraconductivité non conventionnelle en étudiant les oxydes de nickels (nickelates) […]

Graphene sulfur is a composite material of growing interest due to its unique properties and its potential for multi-sector innovation. Since its discovery in 2004, graphene, a carbon atomic monolayer, has sparked a research effort to modify its properties by modifying its chemistry. In fact, graphene-sulfur is graphene onto which sulfur atoms are grafted. Its […]

Wind energy technology plays a crucial role in the global strategy for a green transition, with a significant acceleration in deploying new wind power plants being essential to meet global CO2 reduction targets. In this context, research in numerical simulation can provide the renewable energy sector with reliable tools for new wind farm design, land […]

The potential trophic niche overlap between native and non-indigenous species of a coastal lagoon in Portugal will be studied with the use of multi trophic biomarkers (fatty acids and stable isotopes). This project will focus on two pelagic species (the native blue mussel – Mytilus edulis, and the non-indigenous pleated sea squirt – Styela plicata) […]

The use of electric fields to enhance or better control boiling heat transfer, particularly in microgravity conditions, has been identified for several decades by various space agencies. Two-phase heat transfer is an efficient way of transporting high heat flow densities. They are used in many thermal management systems, such as heat pipes, which were first […]
