The material properties of thermoplastic polymer composite parts manufactured by the fused filament fabrication additive manufacturing process are highly dependent on the thermal history. A good understanding of the heat transfer in fused filament fabrication is crucial for an accurate stress prediction and subsequently for repetitive, high-quality printing. A numerical simulation to model the thermal […]

Metal nanoparticles are increasingly used in cosmetics, food packaging, textiles, toothpaste, and other ubiquitous products. Yet, their impact on our environment, food, and health is largely unknown because measuring nanoparticles in environmental and biological systems is very difficult. Similarly, measuring the uptake of metal-containing drugs by cells to develop smart therapeutics targeting tumors is also […]

To design and produce better materials for construction and manufacturing, as well as discover new and improved drugs, scientists need to be able to predict properties of molecules or crystalline solids – ideally, before they are made in the lab. At the atomic level, these properties are governed by quantum mechanics, which makes the prediction […]

Ce projet vise à développer une méthode d’estimation du temps de production de pièces similaires par apprentissage automatique. Cette méthode fournira une estimation de chaque champ du temps de production d’une pièce d’avion en ayant comme données d’entrée l’historique de fabrication de pièces similaires. L’estimation du temps de production permettra de raccourcir le délai tant […]

There is a growing need to develop new crop protection products that are more effective against fungal disease and mitigate pathogen resistance. The fungicide product development process is time consuming and expensive and there is a great opportunity to reduce costs and time by using machine learning. In this project, an existing deep learning algorithm […]

Le projet vise à améliorer un système d’aide à la conduite pour les camions de transport basé sur des caméras embarquées et des techniques d’intelligence artificielle. L’objectif principal est de mettre à jour l’information sur la vitesse maximale autorisée, cette information étant ensuite utilisée pour limiter automatiquement la vitesse des camions. Le défi principal est […]

In shipbuilding industry, selecting an appropriate grade of steel and the associated characterization techniques, tailored well for low temperature application, have always been a challenge. This subject can be even more critical when we are talking about the materials selection and the characterization techniques for polar class icebreakers. Therefore, Chantier Davie Canada Inc. (CDCI) in […]

Acrylic Robotics is a robotics startup based in Montreal, on a mission to use technology to make fine art accessible to the general public. To make fine art accessible, this project focuses on the implementation of a larger robotic arm to recreate artists’ artworks at scale. The intern will be responsible for the development of […]

L’objectif de mon projet de recherche sera de faire ressortir les similitudes et les disparités concernant les recommandations de remboursements entre les agences d’évaluation des technologies de la santé au Canada (l‘INESSS pour le Québec et l’ACMTS pour l’ensemble des autres provinces) en fonction des différents champs thérapeutiques. Ce projet de recherche sera très pertinent […]

Alberta’s natural resource sector has resulted in the continuous and persistent loss of forest productivity. Despite huge strides in reclamation practices within the last 40 years, there is still a sizeable legacy of industrial disturbed sites that represent a significant opportunity to enhance the sustainability of the forest industry in the province. Forest companies have […]
