Le film d’huile présent entre les dents d’engrenages leur permet d’avoir une durée de vie élevée. Des études démontrent que d’ajouter des microcavités de surface sur deux pièces en contact séparées par un film d’huile aurait des effets bénéfiques qui engendreraient une réduction du frottement, donc conduiraient à des augmentations d’efficacité. L’idée principale est d’appliquer […]

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Although its prevalence is rapidly rising worldwide, the pathophysiology and definite treatment of IBD is yet unknown. In particular, Canada is among countries with the highest IBD prevalence. Recently, circadian rhythm disruption has received significant interest for the IBD pathophysiology. In addition IBD patients […]

This project builds on ongoing research within the project ((Border-Crossing Books) which focused on the ways in which book cultures explicitly intersect with national identities in the twenty-first century. This project began by examining the circulation and reception of national literatures in the US, UK, and Australia from 2000–2020; this project will also be expanded […]

Big data refers to a class of applications that operate on large amounts of data. One paradigm that fits the big data applications category is the Internet of Things (IoT). Millions of IoT devices continuously produce data and exchange information to support critical applications in different scenarios, such as smart cities and smart homes. As […]

Many manufacturing companies face production planning problems. Decisions that need to be taken over multiple periods include when and how much to produce of specific products, so that demand is satisfied. In this project we consider a complex production process, in which items with a customized length need to be cut from bigger objects with […]

Il existe peu de données publiées sur les propriétés des matériaux composites, notamment à cause de la complexité des essais à réaliser pour les caractériser, ce qui rend difficile la modélisation de leur comportement mécanique. Dans ce contexte, une méthode d’essai non destructive pourrait s’avérer particulièrement intéressante afin de caractériser les matériaux composites et d’en […]

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a product construction process by adding successive layers of materials according to computer-aided design models. Recently, metal AM products have been increasingly applied in aerospace, automotive, and biomedical industries. However, the complex interactions (i.e. thermal field) between metallic components and manufacturing processes make the product qualities inconsistent and unreliable, resulting in […]

Semiconductors have been used in electronics for decades and are an integral part of every circuit. Because of this, evaluating semiconductor performance and tolerance in different environments is crucial. For example, evaluating a semiconductor’s radiation tolerance can be quite useful such as for the radiation detectors in the Large Hadron Collider and for the solar […]

My proposed internship is part of a larger research project, my thesis. In my research, I present the first critical, academic discourse on Youval Shimoni’s body of work through an examination of the concepts and aspects of space in his works, and their relation to Israeli reality. In my thesis, Shimoni’s work is mapped for […]

Plant produce large number of the bioactive compounds, among them Amaryllidaceae alkaloids has such potential. Those Amaryllidaceae alkaloids are extracted from Amaryllidaceae plant family. Galantamine is one of the drug which is derived from the Amaryllidaceae alkaloid pathway; and is the only commercialized drug for the treatment of early symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease. Although many […]

Two-dimentional (2D) materials made of few atomic layers, bring unprecedented quantum properties from their extreme thickness. The possibility to stack layers from different 2D materials into heterostructures is one of the most active areas of research in quantum materials, bringing a wide parameter space for creating previously inaccessible quantum states and device geometries. This project […]

In mathematics, a group is a set (an accumulation of items) together with a certain operation. For example: the integers with addition, the symmetries of an equilateral triangle. Being one of the simplest algebraic structures, groups are ubiquitous in mathematics and have applications in other disciplines. Informally, a group is called profinite if it can […]
