Le projet, l’IA au service de la résilience des villes a pour objectif de mettre en place des outils d’IA éthiques et responsables permettant le diagnostic et l’amélioration de la résilience des villes québécoises face aux changements climatiques, économiques et sociales. Étant donnée que de nombreuses villes ne sont pas équipées en termes de ressources […]

The project entails exploring the use of Machine Learning (ML) techniques to assist in the training of air traffic controllers. The core goal is to train models that help predict if an instruction given by an air traffic controller may put an aircraft at risk of colliding with another aircraft during landing procedures.

Spending time in natural environments and nature-based programming is associated with significant health benefits. These outcomes are particularly important for Indigenous youth, whose mental health and wellbeing continues to be a priority for healthcare in Nova Scotia (NS). There is a need for further research that includes NS youth perspectives and identifies their experiences, needs, […]

Blockchain technology and VCs, in principle, can enhance the security, privacy, efficiency, and trustworthiness of the digital exchange of credentials. However, several challenges hinder the adoption of VCs and blockchain, including resistance from the public and some authorities driven by a lack of understanding of the technologies and political motives. There is a limited empirical […]

Rosetta Stone Canada collects user demographic and performance data from Fit Brains Trainer (brain fitness training games), Cognitive Assessment, and Lifestyle Assessment mobile apps. Data from the three apps can be linked and analyzed to answer research questions such as how lifestyle factors can influence brain training habits and outcome. This internship will: 1. Statistically […]

In many industries, particularly those using steam to heat or move heavy oil, keeping pipes and equipment as hot as possible is very important. When heat escapes, it lowers the efficiency of the operation, raises costs, and increases the carbon footprint. Insulation is supposed to keep heat inside, but it does not always work well […]

Flexpipe, the industrial sponsor, is recognized as a global leader in the production of fully organic reinforced thermoplastic pipelines (RTPs). Flexpipe is currently offering non-metallic, non-bonded spoolable fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite linepipes with a maximum service rating of up to 82 °C and up to 1500 psi, for high-temperature fluid transportation, CO2 injection and other corrosive, […]

The project aims to make eco-friendly, degradable membranes and Styrofoam alternatives from forest and yard waste. This innovation aims to reduce plastic pollution and carbon footprints. It will reduce dependency on traditional, non-degradable materials with sustainable options. The technology will benefit the partner organization. It will provide a cutting-edge solution to meet new environmental regulations. […]

Ce projet vise à analyser et optimiser des dispositifs pour améliorer la surveillance des réseaux électriques. Le stagiaire identifiera leurs limites et proposera des solutions. Hydro-Québec bénéficiera de recommandations pour moderniser ses outils, renforçant ainsi la résilience et l’efficacité de ses infrastructures énergétiques.

Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often experience sound sensitivity, leading to distress, anxiety, and difficulties in daily life. The challenges for youth experiencing sound sensitivity can be both acute and downstream. This ongoing stress leads to avoidance behaviours, reduced social and community engagement, and distractions that impact performance at school or work and engagement […]

Hatch Ltd. is a global multidisciplinary consultancy company that provides engineering and business knowledge within the metals, energy and infrastructure sectors. The project proposes constructing a scaled-down, modular proof-of-concept prototype enabling extensive testing and validation studies for liquid-liquid extraction of critical minerals and metals. The design and construction of a custom-made mixer and settler unit […]

The research aims to develop a new computer algorithm for automating simulations of complex power systems when simulations are used for design. The new algorithm will be able to find multiple optimal solutions, which will give the designer the ability to scrutinize and select the most suited option. Additionally the algorithm will be parallel in […]
