Wearable devices are a promising technology for collecting and analyzing physiological and environmental data for various applications, including healthcare, sports and fitness, and occupational health and safety. In some settings, these wearable devices can also be integrated with actuation capabilities to interact with users. The proposed research project focuses on applying wearable technologies to thermal […]

The proposed research aims at developing control strategies under the paradigm of Demand Response (DR) in the context of the Smart Grid in order to improve energy efficiency and to reduce operational cost in commercial buildings and communities. The emphasis will be put on consumer side energy management strategies that able to balance energy demand […]

Ce projet a pour but d’établir un modèle considérant la dépendance dans l’espace et dans le temps, entre les tempêtes de grêle causant des dommages assurables. Nous utilisons un modèle hiérarchique Bayesien, où la fréquence des pertes assurables sera scindée en partie que nous définirons comme faisant partie du noyau et des extrêmes. Nous utilisons […]

Aux Îles-de-la-Madeleine (Qc), les mytiliculteurs s’approvisionnent en jeunes moules (naissain) dans une lagune côtière, le Bassin du Havre-Aubert (BHA), car les stocks récoltés (captage) présentent une résistance particulière au stress, en lien avec une diversité génétique plus importante. Toutefois, face au manque d’espace disponible au BHA et à une variabilité interannuelle du succès de captage, […]

Lorsque des prothèses et outils sont développés pour la chirurgie de la colonne vertébrale, leur conception exploite des simulations numériques. Cependant, les simulations de colonne qui sont utilisées ne représentent souvent qu’un individu caucasien de sexe masculin, dans la trentaine, et sans maladie. Ceci ne correspond pas aux patient·es susceptibles de recevoir une chirurgie de […]

To ensure optimal physical development and competitive performances, specific training parameters such as intensity and volume (i.e., the training load) should be appropriately manipulated during and across training phases. Athletes in biathlon perform large amount of physical training that can lead to excessive fatigue and ultimately hinder physiological adaptations. Monitoring fatigue is therefore paramount to […]

Water injection in the industrial gas turbines is frequently used to improve the turbine performance during hot days. Injected water evaporates in the compressor section providing effective cooling leading to increased gas density and improved performance. Water injection technology poses several technological challenges. The injection system needs to be optimized to provide a uniform droplet […]
