Pour bien fonctionner, l’électronique de puissance, par exemple les moteurs électriques, doit être refroidie avec des liquides qui conduisent bien la chaleur, tout en étant de bons isolants électriques. La disponibilité de ces fluides est actuellement une limite importante si on veut utiliser des puissances plus élevées. L’objectif général de ce projet est de développer […]

L’objectif du projet de stage sera d’améliorer la convergence et la vitesse de résolution des problèmes électromagnétiques et thermiques fortement couplés pour simuler le phénomène d’emballement thermique (i.e. « quench ») dans des électro-aimants supraconducteurs soumis à des variations rapides de courant et/ou de champ magnétique. Les électro-aimants ont de nombreuses applications pratiques, la plus […]

Les tueries de masses font maintenant partie du quotidien aux États-Unis. Depuis 1966, le nombre d’incidents à augmenter de manière significative et la fréquence semble s’accélérer depuis 2012. Afin de mieux comprendre les dynamiques sous-jacentes à ce phenomène, nous proposons d’explorer un angle particulier: l’influence des médias sociaux sur l’idéation de violence des tueurs et […]

With two Indigenous communities, one in Northern Canada and one in Southern Australia, my research explores Indigenous water ethics and water governance models. During my proposed project, using a Participatory Action Research approach, we will video document interviews and collectively edit them to make a short video documentary focused on caring for water. This proposed […]

I would like to reposition the viewer in the spaces within the “Park-Monument of the Bulgarian Soviet Friendship” in Varna, Bulgaria, to question the purpose and value of this monument which is carrying an ideology from a communist past, into the present Bulgarian society. As I understand it, to place something in its context, be […]

The process of cell division and polarization is a relatively well-known phenomenon in yeast and animals. The gene expression during development and growth in multicellular organisms is key for the formation of body axis and cell division. If gene expression is altered, the body of the organism of interest can undergo modifications during growth. In […]

Sham marriages or marriages for immigration purposes have been a common occurrence in many parts of the Global West for some time now. A highly controversial subject, sham marriages has been shunned by the gatekeepers of the western countries. The very core and understanding of what a ‘marriage’ looks differs from culture to culture, in […]

The aim of this project is to evaluate non-marketed ecosystem services that arise in Hungarian agriculture when producing market outputs by implementing and calibrating the Biome-BGCMuSo 4.0 ecosystem model adapted to the Hungarian setting (AgroMo), and by developing econometric models for evaluating the impact of rural development support schemes in facilitating the provision of environmental […]

The aim of the study is to examine the opportunities for adaptation to climate change in rural fisheries communities. Rural Indigenous fisher populations in particular have been identified as being uniquely sensitive to the effects of climate change, reflecting their often-close relationship to the environment and their dependence on natural resources for their livelihoods, culture, […]

Variational quantum circuits allow to do machine learning on near-term quantum hardware. The success of the algorithms strongly depends on the choices made during the model design. These choices can be quantified and are called meta-parameters. Examples are the number and type of quantum gates in the circuit, the number of layers of circuit template, […]

This research involves observing and evaluating sustainability experiments in the small business community, which will contribute to a database that will integrate knowledge from previous research created at the university. The web-based repository will highlight case studies of transformative sustainability entrepreneurship endeavors and supporting legal, political and governance arrangements. The research will focus on the […]

This project consists of archival work on the lecture notes taken by Winthrop Pickard Bell at Universität Göttingen in the beginning of the twentieth-century. Bell was a Canadian philosopher who taught at Harvard University in the 1920’s after completing his doctorate with Edmund Husserl, a prominent German philosopher, at Universität Göttingen. Bell took meticulous notes […]
