Wide Field of View (WFOV) cameras can be deployed in the space environment to allow for opportunistic observation of Resident Space Objects (RSOs) for Space Situational Awareness (SSA). This project aims to deploy a WFOV camera in a cubesat, which will increase the observation window compared to the previous near-space and stratospheric missions.

Le projet s’inscrit dans la thématique “Durabilité et environnement”. Il analyse les interactions entre le droit international de l’investissement et les impératifs de développement durable. Dans un contexte marqué de plus en plus par l’urgence climatique et environnementale, force est de constater que l’ensemble des Etats, y compris le Canada sont confrontés à des défis […]

This project explores how to better model gas flows in situations where traditional fluid equations break down, such as in very small systems or low-pressure environments. Instead of relying on costly molecular simulations, the research develops advanced extensions of classical fluid models that remain mathematically stable and thermodynamically consistent, while being flexible enough to describe […]

This project investigates how the concept of resilience is used and understood in Canadian sustainability discourse, especially in policy documents and public reports written in English and French. Resilience is a key term in climate and sustainability discussions, but its meaning often difficult to grasp; resilience can be used as a property of communities, governments, […]

Timber is a sustainable alternative to concrete and steel, offering a lower carbon footprint and benefits such as high strength-to-weight ratio, ease of prefabrication, and rapid on-site assembly. However, timber floors have low mass and limited stiffness, making them prone to vibrations that can reduce occupant comfort. Steel beams, particularly the innovative Deltabeam system, enhance […]

TASTE Ukraine is a project that is inclusive as it seeks to centre the voices of the Ukrainian diasporic community in a way that can be built upon with other marginalised communities, and lead to evidence that can inform policy and practice. It seeks to lean from, and influence, food, culture, and behaviour and can […]

While telematics data with measurements of specific driving behaviors such as speeding, breaking, and turning, have shown significant predictive power in modeling accident risk, its usability has been challenged due to the low proportion of auto insurance policyholders that agree to provide their telematics data to the insurance companies. In this regard, we propose a […]

L’objectif de ce projet de stage de recherche est de réaliser une étude de méthodes de commande flexible des convertisseurs statiques en technologie de semiconducteur GaN pour la mobilité électrique. Le projet vise spécifiquement la proposition d’une stratégie de génération des signaux de commande flexible pour permettre l’optimisation simultanée du contenu harmonique de courant fourni […]

LensX: Empowering Independence for the Blind through AI Wearable Smart Glasses LensX is an AI-powered assistive technology designed to support blind and low-vision individuals in navigating the world more independently. The project uses a combination of real-time computer vision and voice-based AI to help users identify their surroundings, read text, recognize objects, and receive auditory […]

This project will develop color-changing films made from plant-based cellulose that can show visible signs when packaging is damaged. These smart films are designed to respond to pressure or impact by changing color, making it easier to detect if a product has been dropped or crushed during transport. The focus is on using sustainable materials […]

The healthcare system relies heavily on blood and blood products for a large variety of life-saving treatments. However, blood products are perishable and have short shelf lives. Given the continuous demand for these products, this issue must be addressed. As blood is stored, the profile of cell surface sugars, known as glycans, has been shown […]

This project will study how space weathering, such as solar wind radiation and micrometeoroid impacts, affects planetary surfaces, materials, and biomolecules that are important for future space exploration. Using advanced computer simulations and machine learning, we will model these processes at the atomic level to understand how they alter the chemistry of planetary and material […]
