La récolte d’énergie (“energy harvesting” ou “energy scavenging”) a connu une croissance importante au cours des dernières années. C’est le processus de récupération de l’énergie (voir Figure 1) des sources externes (solaire, thermique, éolienne, acoustique, mécanique/cinétique, etc.) et de conversion en électricité utile à petite échelle. Dans l’industrie aéronautique en particulier, la conversion d’énergie vibratoire […]

Currently Bombardier Aerospace uses the Doublet Lattice Method (DLM), incorporated into a structural solver, to perform aeroelastic calculations such as flutter. This method is able to provide very good results in the subsonic regime, but looses accuracy in the transonic regime due to the high non linearity of the flow. A methodology was developed where […]

I’ll be helping ShapeMeasure create software that will help with scaling the business and improving process efficiency.

Les portes palières sont des portes automatiques situées généralement en bordure des voies le long des quais des stations de métro, pour séparer physiquement le quai des voitures du train. Les portes palières sont de plus en plus intégrées directement en amont de la conception des nouvelles stations de métro, ou alors elles sont rétrofitées […]

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and is currently the most common cause of dementia, affecting approximately 50 million individuals worldwide. RetiSpec has developed a non-invasive, label-free retinal imager that can uniquely detect and quantify AD biomarkers – namely, signatures of A? aggregates. The combination of hyperspectral imaging and machine learning may be […]

Leather manufacturing is a by-product of the meat and dairy industries, and leather can come from any animal. More than a billion animals are slaughtered every year for their skins. But, the most popular type of skin used is coming from cow, calf and buffalo, and accounts for 64% of leather. Turning skin into leather […]

Innovasea produces fish tags and receivers to track the presence and motion of fish and marine mammals while underwater. Fish tracking (acoustic telemetry) is used by researchers worldwide to determine the abundance and habits of marine life, make decisions about fishing seasons and allowed catches, and help protect marine mammals. Innovasea has developed a novel […]

The use of new technologies, such as Gallium Nitride electronic switches, allows very efficient and compact power converters to be manufactured at reasonable cost. This is particularly interesting in applications such as electric vehicles. This project focuses on developing software simulation models and techniques for deploying these latest high voltage switches, in particular focussing on […]

Le projet vise a mettre au point un nouveau systeme de depot de vapeurs chimiques capable d’assurer une production continue et en grande quantite des nanoperles de carbone de qualite. Ces nanoperles constituent un nouveau type de materiau a base de carbone avec des proprietes exceptionne!!es pouvant assurer leur utilisation dans de multiples applications e!ectro-optiques. […]

A solar wireless charger makes use of the power of the sun to charge your mobile phone. The benefit of this portable device is that it makes it possible to charge your phone outdoor or when someone does not have access to electricity right away. It also helps people in undeveloped countries where access to […]

Combustion continues to be the major source of power for electricity, transportation, and material processing. Modem day combustion devices such as automobile engines rely on computer simulations for analysis and optimization of geometry or operating conditions. Combustion problems that are solved to perform such simulations are described by complex multi-scale non-linear mathematical equations that entail […]
