The design of next-generation cleaner and quieter aircraft will rely on accurate simulations of turbulent flows. These simulations, referred to as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), are critical in the design of both the external shape of an aircraft, as well as other components such as jet engines and propellers. The industry partner, ANSYS, develops one […]

Le projet de recherche ci-présent traite de la compromission des identités des clients et des employés au sein du secteur financier et se focalise plus spécifiquement sur trois moyens qui s’y rapportent : l’hameçonnage, le « credential stuffing » et le « password guessing ». Le projet a comme objectif de prévenir ces cyberattaques par […]

Le projet vise à concevoir un outil qui aidera les administrations portuaires à faire des choix stratégiques sur les pratiques d’affaires et nouvelles technologies à implanter pour devenir des ports intelligents. L’outil proposera des résultats personnalisés afin de prendre en compte les enjeux actuels et futurs propres à un port. La création de l’outil reposera […]

Le projet proposé vise à développer des architectures d’apprentissage profond pour analyser divers types d’images d’observation de la Terre utilisées par Effigis. Il est divisé en trois sous-projets, visant chacun un type d’images et d’applications associées. Le premier sous-projet concerne l’identification des bâtiments sur les images satellites à très haute résolution (30 – 50 cm) […]

Aphasia is an impairment of language caused by an injury to the brain. Word finding difficulties often accompany aphasia and can persist even after intensive speech therapy, having a negative impact on the person’s social participation and quality of life. Today’s communication aids can improve the ability to effectively communicate but findings from focus groups […]

Le projet réalisé dans le cadre de stages Mitacs vise à renforcer et augmenter les connaissances sur la dynamique de l’écoulement traversant les turbines hydrauliques de type Francis lorsqu’elles sont opérées en régimes hors production (sans charge). Ces conditions d’opération de plus en plus fréquentes et faisant partie intégrante des régimes transitoires, telles que les […]

The research project proposed here takes a radically new approach to on-vehicle electric power generation, with the potential for developing a scalable, flexible, and conceptually very efficient method without the need for complex mechanical off-take. The new method is called the Free-Piston Direct-Drive Linear Generator, a type of Rankine Cycle expansion engine. Excess thermal energy […]

behaviours within a given organization. This will allow to remedy and/or remove the counterproductive, and to enhance and enable positive behaviours, civility and engagement. The platform that will be developed is unique and distinctly not social feedback nor 360-degree feedback. The cloud-based systems that will be developed should detect, measure, map, correct, and sustain the […]

While touch screens have become the de facto user interface for cell phones, they do not provide any mechanical feedback to the user, unlike standard keyboards and computer mouse where we can feel the buttons springing back against our fingers. This, however, could be replicated through haptic technology, which can mimic various sensations through smooth […]

Two fundamental pillars of communications/communications networks are trust and truth; in particular, we must ensure that the message (or data) that a sender wishes to transmit does indeed reach the intended receiver without being altered or eavesdropped by an unwanted party. This project focuses on demonstrating one concept of the quantum internet. The quantum internet […]

This project addresses one of the challenges confronting Vertical Agriculture (VA): the acquisition of added-value data, their analysis and their transmission to enable VA to provide a steady production while minimizing its environmental impacts, manage its yield and allow for a better understanding of its inter-related component. As a starting point, strawberry production is looked […]

Transportation systems are evolving towards intelligent transportation systems and ISR Transit is a leading provider of these systems providing solutions in fleet management. In these systems, one of the enabling technologies is wireless sensor networks in which sensors are used to obtain information about the fleets. For example, sensors are deployed on motor, brake modules, […]
