Lors de mon premier projet de recherche pour le doctorat, j’ai conduit des entrevues portant sur le stress et la douleur de personnes affectées de douleur lombaire chronique. Lors de ces entrevues, nous avons observé que plusieurs participants avec des niveaux similaires de douleur semblaient avoir de grandes variations dans leur description de la souffrance […]

The overall objective of the research is to find out to what extent air pollution affects the lives of the residents of Nanjing, China. We are going to use a well-known method in economics, the contingent valuation, to study the willingness to pay of the inhabitants of this city, for a reduction of air pollution […]

One key challenge of subcarrier phase-shift keying (PSK) system using coherent modulation is the synchronization problem at the receiver because the residual synchronization error will introduce performance degradation to the system. In the proposed research project, I will investigate the effect of synchronization error on performance of SIM OWC system in atmospheric turbulence. The performance […]

The internal combustion engine will remain the major source of transportation power for decades to come. This project will focus on the control technologies related to minimizing engine-out emission and improving fuel efficiency. Through collaborative control of the engine and its aftertreatment system, an overall optimization of emission and fuel consumption can be realized. The […]

FluidPlanet.org produces and publishes digital twins (virtual versions of real places) for academic, educational and enterprise use. By combining the latest technologies in mapping (GIS), sensors (IoT) and visualization (gaming), we create realistic looking and behaving simulations of real locations. These can then be populated with virtual people, animals and buildings to tell stories that […]

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, children across Canada have suffered in the classroom. A study conducted by Whitley, Beauchamp and Brown (2021) explains the gaps in Canadian students’ education as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. These impacts include school closures, termination on community-based services, unstable and unreliable wifi, and lack of support […]

Advancements in the development of new materials suitable for structural applications are strongly influenced by the understanding of the governing deformation mechanisms. While these deformation mechanisms are mostly understood in simpler crystal structures of the basic metals, their fundamental understanding in complex crystals, which are frequently present in commercial alloys is still lacking. In the […]

Involving some of the smartest students in Ukraine, the research project and partnership will enrich the Master of Global Affairs and Master of Public Policy programs at the Munk School. KSE students will provide Munk community a window into the Ukrainian policymaking process as well as a more general understanding of governance during conflict. Simultaneously, […]

Le projet de recherche vise à étudier comment les actions liées à la mise en œuvre et au développement des pratiques d’intelligence d’affaires et d’analytique (BI&A) peuvent créer de la valeur commerciale au sein des petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) manufacturières dans le contexte de l’industrie 4.0. Grâce à une approche méthodologique mixte combinant des […]

This research project aims to study the involvement of civilians in the war in Ukraine, focusing on their use of modern technologies like cyberwarfare, memes, and DIY drones. I will spend time in Ukraine, meeting different citizen groups and conducting interviews to understand their values and principles in defending their country. The study also includes […]

The proposed research project aims to address a limitation in serverless computing, which is a popular technology for building scalable applications in the cloud. Currently, serverless functions are restricted to run within a specific region, which can lead to performance and cost implications when dealing with external requests from different geographical locations. The project proposes […]

Écohabitation développe une démarche complète de services afin d’aider les municipalités à effectuer leur transition écologique et éco-énergétique (accompagnement, développement de programmes, service d’expertise, formations, conseil…), et ce, afin de répondre à une demande et une urgence exprimées. La question de la voie à prendre pour réussir ces transitions est un sujet de débat à […]
