Le transport informel comme composante de l’intermodalité, le cas de Hanoi

Hanoi, la capitale vietnamienne, connaît une forte croissance démographique. Les déplacements, autrefois effectués à bicyclette, sont désormais réalisés principalement à moto et, de plus en plus, en voiture, générant des problèmes de congestions routières et de pollution. Le réseau de transport collectif, en forte expansion, peut difficilement rivaliser avec le transport individuel, compte tenu de […]

Integrated organic opto-bioelectronics sensors

We are now in Polytechnique Montreal studying organic electrochemical transistors (OECT), which can be used to detect the analyte ion concentration in the liquid environment. The nature of an OECT is to convert ion concentration signal to electron signal. In this short-term cooperation, we aim to integrate OECT with an organic light-emitting diode (OLED), so […]

Establishing the Molecular Weight and the Length of Grafted Chains of PDMS Brushes Using the Ellipsometry Method

The field of research exploring slippery covalently attached liquid surfaces (SCALS), formed with Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) brushes, is fairly new and is proving pivotal in creating economically feasible and non-toxic solutions to resist fouling and prevent ice adhesion. These solutions will contribute to a more sustainable future by lowering the energy expenditure required for optimal efficiency […]

Towards a predictive understanding of glass toughening by crystalline inclusions

Ion-exchanged or chemically tempered glass such as Corning’s Gorilla glass was a break-through in the design and production of high toughness glass. However, the pace of improvements brought in by this technology is levelling off. Recently, the industry has turned to another approach to product tough glass: the addition of small crystalline inclusions. However, this […]

Practical applications of AI in sustainability

Perovskite solar cells are a specific type of solar cell that has become popular in recent years due to their low making cost and higher ability to produce electricity from sunlight. My research project aims to train a neural network that can help predict different characteristics of a perovskite solar cell, thus helping to increase […]

Impact de la sécheresse sur le niveau piézométrique des eaux souterraines de l’hydrosystème du Drâa (Maroc) et l’étude de la concentration en éléments en relation avec la présence des mines abandonnées

Au Maroc, la disponibilité en eau douce constitue un défi majeur, tel le cas dans la région de l’Oued Draa (sud du Maroc), une région dépendante des eaux souterraines pour l’irrigation, l’eau potable et d’autres usages. La sécheresse météorologique, la surexploitation et la pollution menacent cette ressource essentielle. Pour évaluer la résilience et la vulnérabilité […]

Development of computational methods for heart surgery planning.

3D modeling is crucial for effective left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation by providing surgeons with precise, personalized visualizations of the patient’s heart anatomy. The proposed technology will allows for detailed preoperative planning, optimizing the placement of the LVAD within the left ventricle. The accuracy and individualized approach afforded by 3D modeling will contribute to […]

La laïcité de l’État comme lien civil : conditions et limites

Mon projet de recherche vise, d’une part, à définir la place du religieux dans la genèse du lien social (philosophie fondamentale), d’autre part, à fournir un ensemble de recommandations pratiques dont l’objet essentiel est la laïcité de l’État (philosophie pratique). Ce séjour de recherche au Brésil aura pour but, sous la supervision de M. Bignotto, […]
