In early 2020, cannabis edibles will be introduced into the Canadian markets. Although these products will offer a safer alternative to smoking or vaping cannabis, they can still pose certain health risks to consumers and must be controlled for dosage and stability over the product’s entire shelf life. This research project centers on developing a […]

A new generation of composites-intensive aircraft designs promises to dramatically accelerate the growth of a market currently valued at more than $7 billion (USD). The objective of this research program is to propose experimental and modeling methodologies to determine endurance limit for damage onset in composite based on fracture mechanics and fatigue crack initiation monitoring […]

Solar panel cost has decreased dramatically over the year, but to fully displace fossil fuels from the power sector panels must further decrease in cost, and must increase in efficiency and durability. TLC is a novel solar panel design that combines high efficiency, high durability and low cost. TLC uses three very-low-cost optical stages to […]

Le projet, affilié au projet CRIAQ UAS MaSu mobilise deux PME canadiennes appuyées par deux universités spécialisées en génie, soit l’Université de Sherbrooke et l’École de technologie supérieure, afin de développer plusieurs concepts et technologies dans le domaine des drones maritime. Les partenaires feront la démonstration à la fin du projet d’un système sans pilote […]

Les start-up sont des entreprises émergentes qui contribuent positivement au développement socio-économique de la société. Les entrepreneurs à la tête de ces entreprises cherchent souvent un accompagnement entrepreneurial offert par des organismes nommés incubateurs. Des différences de perceptions entre ces deux parties freinent la mise en place d’une relation collaborative à long terme. Cette recherche […]

In an atmosphere of dwindling research funding availability, making sure that the limited money is wisely invested is of critical importance. In our study, we propose to investigate how applied research has been funded in NB over the last decade, and how this funding has impacted economic growths. This study will attempt to make a […]

Mon projet de thèse s’intéresse aux impacts d’investissements dans le logement social sur la santé mentale de familles inuites. Il a été développé en partenariat avec plusieurs organisations inuites du Nunavut et du Nunavik qui ont identifié les conditions de logement comme étant un levier majeur pour l’amélioration des conditions de vie et de santé […]

Angiospermas, or flowering plants are the most successful group of plants on the planet. The reproductive structure of angiosperms known as gynoecium is the responsible for the success of flowering plants. In this project, we want to understand how growth, patterning and tissue differentiation interact during the gynoecium initiation. Currently, there is only hypothesis of […]

Ce projet a pour objectif d’améliorer notre connaissance des processus qui ont mené à la formation d’un important gîte aurifère en Guyane Française. Ce site d’étude fait partie d’une région au socle géologique particulier et qui est exploré par diverses compagnies canadiennes, notamment Reunion Gold, le principal partenaire de ce projet de recherche. La géologie […]

The evolution of aerospace technologies and automated systems has been accompanied by the phenomenon of “de-crewing”. A large body of current research focuses on how to move to single-pilot operations (SPO), but a major barrier to the implementation of SPO and other autonomous commercial aircraft operations is that advances in human-machine interactions and human factors […]

Paints are complex colloidal suspensions that usually contain binders (resins), solvents, pigments and rheological modifiers. From production to applications, these raw materials should remain uniformly mixed and stable during pumping processes and storage, as well as after application with brushes, rollers, spray guns, etc. It is very important to know how the paint behaves under […]
