Le projet proposé vise à développer un appareil portable, non invasif, sans fil et rentable pour la surveillance continue en temps réel de l’activité respiratoire et cardiaque. Cet appareil aidera à diagnostiquer et à surveiller les maladies en fournissant des mesures continues de la fréquence respiratoire avec une précision comparable aux normes médicales, ce qui […]

Carbon dioxide (CO2) atmospheric concentration has increased by 50% (from 280 ppm to 420 ppm) in the last century. Despite efforts to reduce emissions, industries vital to our economy, such as mining, marine transportation, and aviation, remain dependent on fossil fuels for their operations. These sectors are considered hard-to-decarbonize because they lack viable alternatives to […]

Le travail agricole comporte certaines contraintes contextuelles relatives, entre autres, à l’économie, aux conditions climatiques et à l’environnement. Ces contraintes de travail engendrent un stress intense chez les propriétaires d’entreprises agricoles. En effet, selon une étude canadienne publiée en 2016, près de 60 % d’entre eux était à risque de vivre de la détresse psychologique. […]

Telecom operators are demanding more flexible, scalable and energy efficient products. As a system integrator managing networks for operators, Ericsson realize that the benefits of using modern and improved systems is becoming even more critical, as they offer a reduced Operational and Capital Expenditure (i.e. OPEX and CAPEX) of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) systems. […]

Breast cancer remains a major global health concern, with high prevalence rates in new case diagnoses across the world. The primary challenge in breast cancer detection centers on achieving early and precise diagnosis as actual methods have limitations. The primary challenge in breast cancer detection lies in achieving early and accurate diagnosis. Current methods face […]

In recent years, factors like thermal comfort, indoor air quality, and energy consumption in school buildings have received increasing attention. Lecture theatres and chemistry labs pose significant challenges for HVAC design due to thermal stratification in lecture theatres and ineffective ventilation in chemistry labs, caused by large spaces and pollutant generation, respectively. Despite many studies […]

Based on the needs of community partners (Viomax and Adaptavie), we co-developed nine training modules and successfully trained kinesiologists who provide adapted physical activity services to persons with disabilities. Our proposed project aims to co-create and evaluate tools to support the implementation of these training modules within adapted physical activity community-based organizations who provide adapted […]

One of the situations that the Forensic Science needs to address is to establish the identity of a human or an specimen from a biological sample. The contribution of this project will be to obtain an optimized method for extracting DNA from hairs with and without follicles and to generate allelic frequencies suitable for use […]

Nous allons faire l’analyse par résonance magnétique nucléaire du solide de bétons contenant du métakaolin (argile calcinée). Il est considéré que le métakaolin pourrait éventuellement remplacer le ciment Portland, dont la fabrication est l’un des principaux contributeurs à l’émission de gaz à effet de serre. Ce stage se fera dans le laboratoire de Science et […]

This project focuses on revolutionizing space communication through the design and optimization of customized conical horn antennas tailored specifically for space applications. Horn antennas are pivotal in facilitating efficient communication in space, offering unmatched versatility in controlling radiation patterns and providing high efficiency. This project aims to optimize horn antenna geometries and design metrics by […]

Le détaillant Costco ouvrira une succursale à Rimouski en 2025. Ce projet mesurera les impacts socioéconomiques sur divers groupes d’acteurs du secteur bioalimentaire du territoire de l’installation d’un gros joueur comme Costco dans une région éloignée. Il vise aussi à documenter les pratiques d’approvisionnement de la compagnie et de la succursale à l’aune du développement […]

Initially within the application procedure for searching appropriate combination of care seeker/giver matches it’s observed that user must select a range of options like the type of health care worker (HCW) needed for the job, credentials they require, their estimated rate, distance from the location desired, choosing level of experience HCW possesses, and checking whether […]
