Aircraft Pilot Coupling (APC) may arise when airframe structural modes encroach into the frequency range of human senses, biodynamics and control, which is becoming more relevant given the increasingly flexible and optimized airframes of next-generation aircraft. The phenomenon is characterized by oscillations sensed by the aircraft crew and passengers that negatively impact the ride quality. […]

Molecular imaging (MI) is a tool designed to help clinicians better understand disease, and potentiates effective clinical patient management through efficient diagnoses, patient stratification and monitoring of treatment response. As such, MI has a rapidly emerging role in the transition toward personalized medicine. One key enabler of MI are radioisotopes, many of which are produced […]

À ce jour, les modélisations d’impacts environnementaux du cycle de vie des briquets de poche démontrent que la phase de production des briquets de poche est celle qui a le plus d’impacts en raison des matières premières utilisées. D’autres paramètres peuvent également avoir une incidence importante sur les résultats, comme, le niveau de combustible encore […]

Mechanical wear and chemical corrosion are the two main dominant factors that limit the service life of industrial machinery. Wear and tear of tools and equipment are significantly intensifying due to the increasing demand for superior efficiency, productivity, and throughput of industrial apparatuses. Since the surface of the materials is more exposed to abrasive wear […]

Il s’agit d’identifier les besoins potentiels de services à proposer afin d’accroître son marché et son positionnenemt. Elle permettra à l’entreprise de décider d’engager ou pas le développement d’un pan de ses activités au Canada, à court terme. Cette étude est aussi une opportunité d’utilisation des outils de gestion de connaissance afin de mieux s’imprégner […]

Canada is a global leader in the aerospace manufacturing industry. Canadian companies produce complex assemblies and system solutions including carbon fiber composite panels used in the body of airplanes. Manufacturing of such panels requires a significant number of operations such as trimming, drilling, and abrasion. Currently, some of these operations are performed manually, which is […]

Few characterization techniques are available to study solid-state battery materials. The resolutions required to obtain insightful results are below 10 microns. Additionally, both information about the mineral phase for solid-state electrolytes and the elemental analysis are crucial for material research. Current methods have poor sensitivity to light elements such as lithium, therefore the need for […]

During surgery, a neurosurgeon must refer to three levels of image information: macroscopic from the patient’s MRI or CT, providing anatomical context of the surgical target; mesoscopic information from a surgical microscope or exoscope providing a highly magnified view of the region surrounding the surgical target; and the most important microscopic information provided by histology […]

As the heat fluxes produced by modern high-performance microprocessors continue to rise, so too must the effectiveness of the removal of these fluxes. Accordingly, a large amount of research has focused on developing techniques to enhance cooling in computer systems. A novel method of doing so involves replacing the single-phase liquid or two phase-liquid vapor […]

Many studies suggest that genes, environment, and age contribute to the onset of late-life neurodegenerative disease like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Epidemiological studies have shown correlations between environmental chemical exposure and neurodegeneration, but no direct and causal relationships have been established. Conversely, there may be environmental actors that suppress or delay neurodegeneration outcomes. The human body […]
