Transplantation is the preferred treatment for patients whose kidneys have failed. There is an ever-growing gap between patients in need for a transplant and available donors. In response to this need, there has been an increase transplantation of donors who experienced circulatory determined death (DCD). However, many potential DCD donors fail to end up in […]

The A220 aircraft, former CSeries, is the first commercial aircraft certified by Bombardier with fully augmented Fly-by-Wire Control Laws. The longitudinal controller gains are usually scheduled across the flight envelope according to relevant aerodynamic variables. Their tuning can be a lengthy and, sometimes, sub-optimal process. Hence, it is key for Airbus Canada to continue developing […]

This project aims at creating a model for forecasting ice formation in the St. Lawrence Seaway between the Welland Canal and Quebec City. This will improve drastically the planning of all maritime operations during the winter transition period, before the freeze-up.

Dans le but de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre, l’industrie aérienne a tout intérêt à électrifier leur système de puissance. Par contre, un aéronef entièrement électrique n’est pas présentement possible en raison de la masse ajoutée par une batterie qui serait trop grande. En fait, étant donné leur densité de puissance […]

II ya une dizalne d’annee, une epidemie d’insectes, la livree des forAts, a provoque de la mortalite au sein des peuplements de peuplier faux-tremble en AbItibi et dans Ie Nord-duQuebec, O’ordinaire, les perturbations naturelles dans ces peuplements n’empachent pas la regeneration de s’etablir, mais ce ne fut pas Ie cas suite 8 I’epidemie d’jJ y […]

This project aims to design new highly compact and highly effective filters for a multi-level power converter based on wide-bandgap (WBG) transistors that integrates an Active Front Ends on the grid-side. Leveraging the high switching speed of WBG, new light weight multi-stage filters suppressing all switching frequency are designed for both the utility and motor […]

Le projet consiste à développer un système et une application web qui permettra aux aménagistes forestiers urbains de choisir la meilleure espèce d’arbre à planter à différents endroits de la ville afin de maximiser les retombées économiques et sociales et la résilience du couvert arboré face aux changements globaux. Nous développerons un système qui regroupera […]

Phagelux has developed a cocktail of bacteriophages (bacterial viruses) that treat infections with bacteria resistant to antibiotics. During the curse of treatment, bacteria may become resistant to bacteriophages included in the cocktail. This project aims at determing the bacteria surface markers on which bacteriophages can bind and start their therapeutic function. This will help Phagelux […]

L’état des connaissances sur les pratiques des consultants de la RSE pour accompagner des gestionnaires, les stratégies qu’ils développent pour gérer la complexité liée à ces parcours d’intégration demeure largement parcellaire. Cette recherche vise, d’une part, à caractériser les interventions des consultants auprès de gestionnaires de PME et, d’autre part, à établir comment ils font […]

In recent years, the interest given to disease biomarkers has boomed. Biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies are exploring ways to use biomarkers to speed up the drug development process, as well as to rapidly assess a diseases state, staging, progression and response to therapy. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) Mass Spectrometry (MS) has been shown to be […]

The emerging 360-degree video applications provide the user with an immersive experience. This comes at the price of high computational complexity to process the high-resolution content (e.g. 4K or 8K) and of high data rate to deliver it in real time to the user. The user’s experience can be made more realistic using stereoscopic 360-degree […]

The aviation industry connects people, markets, and cultures around the world and aviation is the key to ensuring that air transport continues to play a major role in driving sustainable economic and social development. The International Air Transport Association (IATA), as the trade association for the world’s airlines, representing some 280 airlines or 83% of […]
