Analyse de l’accident d’avion SWA1380 avec la méthode Causal Analysis based on System Theory (CAST)

Ce projet vise à mieux comprendre comment les équipes et les systèmes parviennent à gérer des situations critiques en aviation. Il s’appuie sur l’accident du vol Southwest Airlines 1380, survenu en 2018, lorsqu’une défaillance moteur a entraîné une dépressurisation rapide de la cabine. Malgré la gravité de la situation, l’avion a pu atterrir en toute […]

RISC-V validation internship

This project focuses on improving the trustworthiness of a RISC-V processor design intended for use in aircraft systems by carefully checking that it works correctly and securely. Modern aircraft depend heavily on software and digital hardware, so even small design errors or hidden security weaknesses can create safety risks. The project will verify a security-enhanced […]

LoRaSat: Implementation and Evaluation of a Satellite-based LoRaWAN Network

This project will study how well LoRaWAN can work for direct communication with Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites to connect IoT sensors in remote “no-coverage” areas. The intern will use a simulation tool to model thousands of devices sending data to a satellite during a single pass and will measure how often messages succeed or […]

Analyse de la composition et la concentration de gaz plasma avec un appareil FTIR

À ce jour, les technologies de purification de l’air se base sur la filtration, où les contaminants sont emprisonnés dans des filtres, qui présentent certaines limites. Ce projet de recherche propose une nouvelle approche, une technologie de décontamination de l’air à partir de plasma froid et de la catalyse oxydative. Cette technologie permettrait non pas […]

Investigating Large Language Models as Collaborative Teammates for Human-AI Aerial Teaming Scenarios

This project investigates the use of large language models (LLMs) as autonomous teammates to perform aircraft control, strategic reasoning, and team communication in complex aviation missions. We propose to design and evaluate an LLM-based “wingman” agent for a simulated collaborative aerial firefighting scenario, in which a human and AI fly their own aircraft to detect […]

Real-time satellite telemetry anomaly detection for on-board autonomy

As the number of satellites in orbit grows rapidly, with constellations ranging from dozens to thousands of spacecraft, continuous human monitoring does not scale; ground contact is limited and quick autonomous responses are essential to protect mission assets and space safety. The project aims to create a fast, reliable method to automatically detect anomalies in […]

Relative Attitude and Orbit Estimation of Passive Spacecraft

This study focuses on parameter estimation for passive and non-operational satellites. With the increase in space technologies, space-related activities have expanded and the number of satellites has grown accordingly; as a result, non-operational satellites and potentially hazardous space debris have emerged. Information about these space objects is mostly obtained through measurements conducted from ground-based platforms. […]

Double diplôme de doctorat : Comportement alimentaire et besoins énergétiques lors d’épisodes d’inactivité physique prolongés

L’activité physique joue un rôle essentiel dans l’équilibre entre l’énergie que nous mangeons et celle que nous dépensons. Pourtant, lorsqu’on devient inactif (blessure, hospitalisation ou simplement un mode de vie sédentaire), cet équilibre se dérègle. Nos besoins énergétiques diminuent, mais notre appétit ne s’ajuste pas toujours : nous continuons souvent à manger comme si nous […]
