Le Festival de Lanaudière est une organisation d’envergure au Canada. Rassemblant des dizaines de milliers de spectateurs depuis 1978, ce festival a pour mission de rassembler les gens de partout autour de la musique classique. C’est dans cette perspective d’engagement dans la collectivité que s’inscrit mon projet de recherche qui suivra les débuts du développement […]

Since the onset of the digital age, the need to process tremendous amounts of data has become of critical importance for healthcare, financial, and government sectors. This has made information processing tasks increasingly complex, and thus far, there exists no realistic platform that can meet the stringent requirements of the computation industry, e.g., in terms […]

The aviation industry is a significant contributor to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, and the influence of these emissions is exacerbated by the fact that they are emitted at high altitudes. This project advances the development of fully electric Urban Air Mobility (UAM) systems, which have the potential to significantly reduce emissions relative to existing jet […]

The PDF will start by validating the use of the open-source Stanford University Unstructured (SU2) RANS-based CFD solver for rotorcraft design. This includes generating a mesh and configuration file with SU2 and performing a grid convergence study to validate SU2 and the chosen turbulence models against the reference experimental data. Following this, PDF will generate […]

Having an efficient and scalable manufacturing production process of Adeno-Associated Virus (AAV) vectors remains one of the most challenging problems in the industry for meeting the high demand of AAV for clinical application in gene therapy. The current production process of AAV relies on the co-transfection of three plasmids containing the main virus structural and […]

L’ensemble de la filière agricole est confronté aux maladies fongiques et les phénomènes de résistances face aux fongicides qui en découlent. Depuis 1990, des méthodes de Lutte Antiparasitaire Intégrée (LAI) tendent à faire évoluer les pratiques agricoles en prenant en compte l’apparition de ces résistances et les quantités d’intrants appliqués en champs pour prévenir les […]

Les infections respiratoires virales sont une problématique importante pour les systèmes de santé mondiaux. Plusieurs virus respiratoires tels que les coronavirus, responsables notamment de la COVID-19, et les virus de type influenza responsables de la grippe mutent rapidement ce qui leur permet d’échapper au système immunitaire et de résister aux traitements. Conséquemment, nous voulons bloquer […]

Les documents d’ingénierie sont essentiels aux projets d’infrastructures. Plusieurs de ces documents sont toutefois dans des formats dits non-intelligents, c’est-à-dire qu’ils ne peuvent directement être interprétés par un ordinateur. Dans certains cas, ces documents sont même uniquement sur papier… Le projet vise à donner aux logiciels Bentley une capacité d’analyse de ces documents similaire à […]

The Canadian company Algae-C is developing innovative platforms for the growth of different kinds of phototrophic algae around the world. The algal biomass from its modular units is used for the aquaculture, biofuel, nutraceutical, chemical, and personal care markets. Algae-C wants to expand the use of their technology in more areas such as the pharmaceutical […]

This project focuses on the development of a tool to monitor electricity use in Quebec households. This tool intends to assess in near real-time the energy use of each appliance (electric space heaters, electric water heaters, etc.) to identify and diagnose its energy usage for providing feedback to utility and customers. Accordingly, several developments and […]

The main objectives for the industrial partners Hydro Québec and Cascades within the MITACS Elevation program are threefold: a. Ensure their industrial voice is represented on this international consensus building process b. Being proactive, influence the process and anticipate the developments on the consensus around water footprinting methods c. Generate industry specific case studies to […]
