This project will focus on the very first stage of papermaking, where a watery mixture of fibers is spread onto a moving screen to form a sheet. The way the fibers move and mix during this step—called “stock activity”—has a big effect on how strong, smooth, and uniform the final paper will be. Right now, […]

Rowing Precision, a Canadian sports technology startup, in collaboration with Brock University, seeks to design and test a versatile, on-boat performance monitoring platform that integrates advanced sensor modules, energy-efficient wireless communication, and an intuitive analytics interface. The system will deliver real-time performance feedback to support informed training decisions and enhance competitive performance.

Carbon Exel’s mission is to defossilize the hard-to-decarbonize sectors by generating a low-carbon electro-diesel or e-diesel fuel. E-diesel is derived by transforming carbon dioxide (CO2) and green hydrogen (H2) into e-diesel powered by renewable electricity (hydro, wind, etc.). E-diesel releases 80% less CO2 emissions than traditional diesel, making it a viable option to reduce and […]

Gingival recession affects ~50% of the population and results in the exposure of tooth root surfaces, which leads to an increased risk of dental caries. The gold standard treatment is autologous grafts involving tissue being harvested from the roof of a patient’s mouth, leading to pain and bleeding, the inability to eat, risk of infection, […]

Amylior Inc., une entreprise spécialisée dans les fauteuils roulants motorisés, travaille sur un projet innovant visant à améliorer la vie des utilisateurs de ces fauteuils. L’objectif est de créer un fauteuil intelligent capable de s’adapter aux besoins spécifiques de chaque personne, en surveillant des paramètres comme la pression et la posture. Cela permettrait de prévenir […]

Lululemon is a global leader in athletic apparel industry, focusing on high-quality, functional, and sustainable textiles. With a commitment to environmental responsibility, the partner is targeting 75% sustainable materials by 2025 and aims to source e.g. all cotton from sustainable sources. This joint project aligns with their sustainability mission by addressing two critical challenges: the […]

In this project the interns will work with a leading ultrasound imaging company, FUJIFILM VisualSonics Inc, developing advanced ultrasound beamforming techniques (the process by which images are formed) using specialized ultrasound instrumentation (the F2 system using the VADA platform) that will produce high resolution images of blood vessels in tissues. These advanced beamforming techniques (based […]

In this project, three different phases including a series of structural tests on a novel full-scale precast fiber-reinforced tunnel lining segments reinforced with FRP composite materials are proposed. The three different phases include (1) Structural testing of novel precast concrete tunnel lining segments in the structural laboratory, University of Sherbrooke; (3) field implementation, application, and […]

The proposed project aims to enhance Ciena’s existing AXI protocol tracing solution for FPGAs by adding a timing feature through synchronized counters. This improvement will allow for more accurate data flow tracking and performance within FPGA systems. By integrating this timing capability, the enhanced module will provide Ciena with better diagnostics and debugging tools, leading […]

The main objective of this project is to design an effective CO2 capture and conversion technology for alcohols and DME production. The process is based on microwave-assisted CO2 adsoprtion process integrated with hydrogen and syngas. The modelling of the novel microwave adsorption system will be performed. The process simulation tool will be provided to determine […]

Comment redonner la juste valeur aux matières résiduelles issues de la production des objets? Le projet est une collaboration entre le fabricant de luminaires Lambert et Fils et l’équipe de recherche de Guillaume Sasseville, professeur en design des objets à l’École de Design de l’UQAM. Le projet consiste à concevoir, à analyser les opportunités et […]

Housing shortage is one of the most serious societal issues that Canada is dealing with. On the other hand, the shrinking number of workforce is expected to increase the construction duration and cost of the new project. Furthermore, the influence of climate change in the form of wildfires and hurricanes threatens the conventional methods of […]
