Dans les fermes porcines, le suivi du comportement et l’analyse des données biométriques sont indispensables pour l’amélioration du bien-être, du niveau de santé, de l’efficacité des traitements, la prise de décision en matière de reproduction et plus généralement, la durabilité de la production porcine. Additionnellement, avec la pénurie de main d’œuvre au Québec, les fermes […]

Graduate students working on the NSERC RDC program titled: Clutched redundant Rotary Motors for Aircraft Primary Flight Control will have the opportunity to pursue their respective research projects at the locations of the two industrial partners supporting the project. Bell Helicopter will accept 5 fulltime 4 months internships and Bombardier will accept 4 fulltime 4 […]

Ce projet vise l’amélioration d’une méthode de mesure, utilisant la norme ISO 18437-5, permettant de mesurer les propriétés élastiques de matériaux poreux à squelette élastique. Ces matériaux sont couramment utilisés en combinaison avec des panneaux métalliques ou composites pour contrôler leur comportement vibratoire et acoustique. De tels panneaux forment notamment les coques d’avions et panneaux […]

Electric vehicles have been adopted around the world as an alternative to combustion engine vehicles. It has been a focus for academic and industry research efforts to develop battery materials with reduced cobalt, but the removal of cobalt comes at a cost. Reduced cobalt often decreases the stability of these materials. Further improvements to the […]

Eden Valley Poultry (EVP) is one of the main suppliers of chicken products in Atlantic Canada with 10.3M broilers and turkeys processed in 2018. Currently, the EVP planner manually manages various factors that contribute to the selection of barns for broiler pick up to be processed every day. This research proposal aims to improve the […]

L’industrie de la valorisation de bois fait face aujourd’hui à des défis de plus en plus complexes. En plus de leur quête continuelle de performance et de compétitivité, des facteurs tels que les changements climatiques, la disponibilité des ressources, l’augmentation des sources de variabilité ou bien même la rareté des compétences augmentent la pression sur […]

Culture of cells in three-dimension (30) allows cells to interact with their surrounding and grow in all directions and behave in a manner that is more closely associated to how they would in vivo as long as their nutrient and environmental requirements are maintained. In this context, bioprinting offers an advantage over 20 cell cultures […]

The research proposed in this document will build upon and extend the previously funded CRIAQ (AUT-1701) and MITACS (IT12130) projects on the development of a UAV platform for search and rescue activities in the ski facilities of Domain Saint Bernard in Mont Tremblant in collaboration with SII Canada. The goal of this research is to […]

There is a large need for custom orthotic insoles that meet user’s needs in terms of comfort, pressure distribution correction and impact absorption integrated a in more extensive and flexible way. The limited reliable control of these factors in current manufacturing processes has led to frequent orthotic adjustments, reduced device compliance, lowered effectiveness and increased […]

Emerging research indicates that a variety of short (

Ubisoft’s cloud-based video game ecosystems experience the workload up to 5+ millions players in a typical week. Workloads on game servers are of different scales, ranging from tens of clients per game server to thousands of clients for traditional workloads. To guarantee game player user experience, a pool of servers is launched to react to […]

Warmwater shrimp are dominant in Canada’s shrimp market, and they are mainly imported from Asian countries. Final market value of the imported shrimp can be increased if they are alive; however, shipping live shrimp in water is cost-prohibitive. To reduce the weight-associated cost, shrimp growers are interested in transporting live shrimp in waterless conditions. Unfortunately, […]
