Development of recyclable metal-infused feedstock for low-cost 3D printing in the context of circular manufacturing

In this project, we are developing recyclable metal-infused feedstock for low-cost 3D printing that mixes metal and plastic. We are using recyclable carbonyl nickel and eco-friendly water-atomized iron powders mixed with recyclable plastics. Our goal is to improve how these materials are put together, making 3D printing easier and cheaper. We will print produced metal/polymer […]

Feasibility study to determine the applicability of using reclaimed and remanufactured lumber in mass timber (CLT)

Finger-jointed lumber made from reclaimed and recycled lumber cut-offs/waste will be manufactured and used to produce mass timber panels (i.e., cross-laminated timber (CLT)). The mechanical properties of these panels will then be measured. The project therefore consists of two phases. The first one will focus on assessing the mechanical properties of the finger-jointed lumber made […]

Unravelling the optimal luminous environment for the black soldier fly for biomass production and conversion of biowaste

In recent years, the use of insects as feed has gained attention for its potential to tackle environmental, economic, and ethical challenges in traditional feed production. The black soldier fly (BSF) is a key focus due to its potential in creating a circular economy, particularly in waste management and protein production. Improving the breeding conditions […]

Design of a robust flight control for an unmanned aerial vehicle

This project proposal describes a new approach for the design, implementation, and testing of a robust flight control for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) such as a hexcopter. The motivation for this work is driven by the limitations of the current commercial controllers (e.g., the difficulty to deal with variable payloads and challenging environments). This […]

Modélisation numérique de l’écoulement diphasique au sein d’une turbine hydroélectrique aérante

La simulation numérique d’écoulements diphasiques air-eau au sein de turbines hydroélectriques aérantes sera effectuée. Le premier objectif est de déterminer la distribution de taux de vide dans l’aspirateur afin de qualifier ultérieurement le taux d’oxygénation de l’eau turbinée. Le deuxième objectif est de déterminer le rendement de la turbine après ajout de dispositifs aérants. Les […]
