Les infrastructures en béton armé (ponts, routes, ports, canaux de navigation) ont un impact majeur sur la société. Les bénéfices économiques reliés à l’utilisation de ces infrastructures sont considérables, cependant ils sont contrebalancés par les coûts directs des travaux de remplacement ou de réhabilitations récurrentes. Le projet Développement d’éléments préfabriqués et de réparations pour les […]

OSSimTech develops and sells virtual reality (VR) surgical simulators. This proposal aims to improve the efficiency of the simulation of cutting and deforming organs. The current simulator used by the company is appropriate for a range of surgery scenarios, but for several scenarios, it is too long to compute. The company has plans to expand […]

Identifying fungal effector proteins and understanding their function is of great importance in efforts to control losses to plant diseases. Modern high-throughput sequencing technologies have facilitated the availability of several fungal genomes and 1000s of transcriptomes. There is minimal consensus over the annotation and functionality of effector proteins. With the characterization of avirulence (Avr) genes, […]

Les activités de recherche prévues au cours de mon séjour à l’University of South Australia consistent à développer un spectromètre à peignes de fréquences dans l’infrarouge moyen intégré sur une puce optique. Un spectromètre dont la plage spectrale d’opération s’étend jusqu’à 3-5 µm permet la mesure de spectres d’absorption de gaz. Bon nombre de molécules […]

The present project will evaluate the techno-economic and environmental performance of an Integrated Biorefinery System that employs an innovative state-of-art fast pyrolysis processes for the production of bio renewable fuels in the bio-economy. A systematic design methodology will be defined using state-of-the-art process systems engineering tools which include market analysis, techno-economic assessment, cost accounting, energy […]

Mines produce large amount of waste rocks, mostly disposed on ground surface in form of pile. In underground mines, waste rocks are increasingly used to construct barricades to retain mining backfill in the stopes. Waste rocks can also be used as inclusions to accelerate the drainage and consolidation of tailings. To properly evaluate the stability […]

Mines generate large quantity of tailings. In most cases, they are transported by pipes and deposited in tailings ponds and confined by dams. To limit the footprint and land area of tailings pond, the dams have to be uplifted progressively with the increase in the tailings level. Several methods exist to uplift the tailings dams. […]

Hot rolling is one of the most significant processes during modern steel production. Complex metallurgical phenomena could take place during and after the application of high pressure and temperature, which largely affect the product properties. A simulation or model that could predict these microscopic events real time is extremely beneficial in the production. Therefore, the […]

Il est possible avec des techniques spécialisées de rendre des cerveaux de souris transparents permettant ainsi de les analyser pour mieux comprendre leur fonctionnement. Toutefois, ces méthodes demeurent en développement et il est très difficile de perfectionner ces techniques rapidement. Le projet consiste à développer un microscope ayant une vision très large permettant ainsi de […]
