Modeling and simulation for predictive building control using high-resolution climateforecasting

The state-of-the-art of building energy management systems uses model predictive control to compare alternative control strategies prior to implementation. Climate conditions dramatically influence the control strategy selection. These rely on conventional climate forecasting that provides coarse resolution with respect to both time and space (e.g. 1 hour, 50 km). The industrial partner Green Power Labs […]

Climate-smart circularity: Guiding decision-making through data-informed standard protocols

Organizations are trying to manage their waste streams using circular economy principles to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Without proper assessment, organizations that follow a standard waste hierarchy often lack proper awareness and understanding about the amount of GHG emissions individual options actually reduce. They can use sophisticated (and systems thinking) approaches such as life […]

Optimization of Myelin Water Imaging

The purpose of this research project is to optimize a magnetic resonance technique designed to measure myelin in brain and spine. This technique holds great promise for diagnosis and management of neurodegenerative diseases as well as abnormal brain development. The finalgoal ofthe project is to have a magnetic resonance protocol which could be offered as […]

Pea protein de-flavouring by ultrasound cavitation

The global demand for protein is increasing at a rapid pace. Certainly, the animal-based proteins alone will not be able to respond to the anticipated rise in demand. Among various sources, plant-based proteins have been identified as the most reliable option. However, they carry an undesirable taste or odor. The aim of this project is […]

Thales : Humain-Autonomie Teaming (HAT) pour les véhicules aériens sans pilote

Le contexte du projet se situe dans le domaine de l’interaction entre l’humain et les agents autonomes (humanautonomy teaming; HAT), plus particulièrement dans le cas d’usage touchant l’aérospatiale. Thales souhaite étudier les mécanismes pour que ces deux agents (humain et machine) puissent devenir coéquipiers formant un système cognitif conjoint (joint cognitive system). L’étude consiste à […]

Development of Graphene-Based Anode Materials for Li-Ion Batteries

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become a critical energy storage device in various applications, such as portable electronic devices, electric vehicles, and grid storage, due to their high energy density and good rate capabilities. Carbon-based materials have been widely used as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries. Among them, graphite is the most common anode material used […]

The use of eDNA as a tool to augment gill net sampling for fish community monitoring

Traditional monitoring of fish community using gillnets is a well-established standard but comes with biases associated with selectivity of net sizes as well as significantly mortality of caught fish. Environmental DNA (eDNA) is rapidly becoming the new standard in fish and wildlife monitoring because it is less susceptible to biases, and it eliminates animal mortality. […]
