There is a global effort to replace fossil-derived polymers with more sustainable, and better performing renewable polymers. As Canada is planning to put a ban on single used plastics by the end of 2021, putting an effort to replace these plastics with bio-based, compostable and biodegradable plastics could be a potential solution. The proposed work […]

Lors de la période hivernale, les municipalités du Québec doivent effectuer des opérations de déneigement et de déglaçage des rues, trottoirs et pistes cyclables afin de favoriser la circulation automobile, piétonnière et cycliste. En fonction des changements climatiques anticipés, les municipalités devront modifier la planification de leurs activités en adoptant de bonnes mesures d’adaptation aux […]

Residential wastewater is one of the largest sources of water pollution in Canada. Before being discharged to the environment, the wastewater needs to be treated to reduce risks posed to human health and the environment. However, the vast territory of Canada and the disparate locations of communities makes it a huge challenge to set up […]

Suitable nanomaterials will be selected to be used as nano-absorbents for CO2 capture (CC). The nano-absorbents will be suspended in a base fluid used for CC to create a nanofluid. The performance of both the pure base fluid and the developed nanofluid for CC will be evaluated experimentally in the lab and compared. Similarly, the […]

A video game livestream is when one or more “streamers” broadcast themselves playing a video game to an online audience in real time. Our research project will explore the design of video games that allow large audiences (50+ people) to directly control aspects of a game during a livestream. We will investigate ways the audience […]

En conformité avec le Plan d’action numérique en éducation et en enseignement supérieur, les bibliothèques scolaires tendent à devenir des carrefours d’apprentissage (mesure 17). Pour ce faire, il importe que le personnel scolaire et les élèves aient en main de l’information de qualité quant aux usages pédagogiques des livres à leur disposition en bibliothèque. À […]
