Modern cloud-based applications are deployed as isolated processes in containers or virtual machines. These applications frequently require tuning by the application developer (or a DevOps engineer) in order to extract the requisite performance. For example, a Java application executing within a Docker container may have radically better performance if the host JVM runs with a […]

Liver cancer is the fifth most common cancer and has the third highest death rate world-wide. Patients are usually diagnosed once the disease has progressed to a point where a cure is not possible. An emerging treatment to help manage this type of cancer uses small particles to block blood from reaching the cancer while […]

De nos jours, le vieillissement de la population ainsi que l’augmentation du poids moyen sont à l’origine de nouvelles problématiques dans le secteur médical et paramédical. En effet, la majorité des aides-soignants souffrent de problèmes musculo-squelettiques (lombalgie, etc …), qui peuvent trouver leurs origines dans le transfert des patients “handicapés ou blessés”. Ces déplacements, et […]

Dans une perspective de développement durable et d’économie circulaire, les industries sont forcées vers des pratiques plus durables de traitement et de valorisation des matières résiduelles, telles que les boues provenant du traitement de l’eau. Ainsi, les pratiques conventionnels d’enfouissement et d’incinération des matières organiques seront bannis au Québec à partir de 2022. C’est dans […]

La place importante du pétrole aujourd’hui amène le constructeur d’avions à développer des avions consommant de moins en moins avec des performances de plus en plus élevé. C’est dans cette optique que Bombardier Aéronautique a lancé la fabrication des CSeries, avion de ligne à faible consommation. Une saine gestion du programme CSeries est indispensable face […]

To address the diverse requirements of Internet of Thing (IoT) applications, Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) networks represent an innovative communication paradigm. Unfortunately, scaling the networks to massive number of devices and managing higher levels of interference are still open issues. Most studies suggest that end devices should adapt their communication parameters. Therefore, the main […]

This project proposes the use of carboxylated cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) – developed and manufactured by Anomera Inc. from Canadian forests – as nano-inclusions to tailor a set of properties in latex-based PSA nanocomposites towards enhanced performance. Due to their unique properties, CNCs can significantly enhance the mechanical performance of latex-based PSAs. Project results are expected […]

Mi5 is planning a business transition to advance production and […]

Precision ADM is a global engineering and manufacturing solutions provider who uses Additive Manufacturing as a core technology, complemented by multi-axis machining to manufacture high value components and devices for the medical, aerospace, energy, and industrial sectors. Precision ADM specializes in PBF based additive manufacturing. For that reason, Precision ADM wants to design and develop […]

The project is building analytics models that will predict competitive pricing reactions, for example if we change the price of a product will that lead to more sales or less sales. This can also be achieved by running a simulation model with multiple price scenarios to find the ideal price range for clients.

The objective of the internship is to concentrate on the below aspects to bring a significant impact for B&R 1. Build an operations management model to handle new and current orders for creating/closing manufacturing lines and managing items to buy whilst simultaneously updating the inventory 2. Develop a pricing model based on costs and historic […]

The main goal of this project is to develop a platform that helps to optimal design of a power converter for switch reluctance motors. The research will focus on multi-domain models and multi-objective optimization routines. Due to the high complexity of developing such a tool, the component models will include loss, thermal, and cost aspects, […]
