Detection and recognition of crisis using Markov models and Case-based reasoning

This project pertains to the modeling, detection and monitoring of crises in geopolitical dynamiC environments. As risks are inherent to crises, we need tools to cope with the uncertainty factors involved in these situations. The objective of this project is to conduct research activities to support the understanding of crisis situations and to model their […]

Développement, implantation et étude des retombées de capsules vidéoorthophoniques sur l’autonomisation des personnes vivant avec la maladiede Parkinson

La maladie de Parkinson touche plus de 1,5% des personnes de plus de 65 ans et jusqu’à 90 % des personnes atteintes développent des difficultés à avaler ou à s’exprimer au courant de leur maladie. Ces difficultés nuisent aux relations sociales des personnes qui vivent avec cette maladie. Des thérapies en orthophonie peuvent aider à […]

Unraveling the electrophysiological basis of auditory entrainment from a gender perspective

An important challenge in developmental psychiatric research is to understand which are the neural mechanisms underlying language acquisition and speech comprehension. Auditory entrainment is the mechanism by which the brain faithfully entrains electrophysiological activity to rhythmically modulated stimuli, and it is seen as the mechanism that the listening brain use to attune to acoustic regularities […]

Punching Shear Behavior of Glass Fiber-Reinforced polymer Reinforced Concrete Slab-Column Edge Connections Under Lateral Cyclic Loading

The applicability of reinforcing slab-column edge connections with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars in resisting gravity loads has been validated through several investigations. The elastic nature of FRP reinforcement raises concerns about the feasibility of using this type of reinforcement in reinforced concrete (RC) structures in seismic regions. To date, only one study has been conducted […]

Développement d’un système de microplaque chauffante à induction

Dans le domaine de la spectroscopie infrarouge, nous utilisons des sources infrarouges à large bande afin d’illuminer les échantillons observés. La méthode traditionnelle est d’utiliser des éléments chauffants avec une bonne émissivité à haute température, environ 1,000 °C. Actuellement, les défis majeurs pour la conception de source de lumière infrarouge sont i) la grande consommation […]

Wind Field Estimation, Exploitation and Guidance for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become increasingly used in the fields of data collection, surveillance, and search and rescue missions. For many UAVs, knowledge of the instantaneous wind speed and direction and overall wind field are of interest, as this knowledge can help better control the position and orientation of the UAV in heavy wind. […]

Maximizing Plant Production using Light Emitting Diode Arrays

This proposal is for the development and optimization of light emitting diodes (LEDs) for plant growth. The development of LEDs over the complete range (and beyond) of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR: 400 – 700nm) now allows focused research into the effect of wavelength on specific plant responses. The LEDs produce light in a narrow spectrum […]

Étude des états limites en pression des pompes centrifuges Technojet multistage

Les pompes centrifuges multiétages sont des équipements sous pression travaillant sous des conditions sévères où le débit et la pression de fluides varient d’une façon cyclique. Le fluide est aspiré au niveau du premier étage à une faible pression et est refoulé à haute pression au dernier étage à travers la section dite de décharge. […]
