Le Labo – Solutions Brassicoles est une entreprise qui produit à grande échelle des solutions de levures liquides à des fins brassicoles, c’est-à-dire qu’elle fournit aux microbrasseries du Québec, et bientôt d’ailleurs, les petites bêtes nécessaires à l’élaboration des bières, celles qui rendent possible la production d’alcool lors de l’étape qu’on appelle ‘fermentation’, mais permettent […]

The project will develop a 6G silicon-based beamforming network incorporating optical technologies. Such a technology may increase the performance of the 6G wireless systems and to reduce the power consumption. The use of photonics to perform beamforming has a key advantage of wide instantaneous bandwidth with no beam squint problem. Since the signals are already […]

Le projet proposé vise à réduire les accidents de conduite dus à la fatigue au volant en particulier pour les chauffeurs routiers. Pour cela, des capteurs intégrés dans la housse du siège du conducteur, serviront à mesurer la respiration et le rythme cardiaque du conducteur. Le but de la recherche proposée sera de réussir à […]

The goal of this project is to assess the effectiveness of Concrete Canvas® in mitigating the radioactive radon gas exposure as well as methane infiltration into northern houses due to degrading permafrost. The outcomes of this research can provide northern communities with a relatively low-cost climate adaptation strategy to deal with toxic soil gas exposure […]

Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is a practical solution for reducing the overall green house gas (GHG) emission and environmental footprint of the civilization. The CoFlow simulation software developed by CMG is one of the only tools available for predicting the performance of the CCS applications. Generally, there are technical challenges and prediction deficiencies associated […]
