Composantes de l’efficacité des équipes de direction

Près de 50 % des faillites d’entreprises canadiennes seraient attribuables à des lacunes en matière de gestion et de décisions de la direction de l’entreprise. Si on reconnaît qu’une organisation et ses résultats seront au reflet de son équipe de direction, la littérature demeure sans réponse en regard des signes distinctifs des équipes de direction […]

Broadband Impedance Matching for HF radar applications

In the proposed project, the intern will develop circuits through simulation for broadband impedance matching for high-frequency surface-wave radar antennas transmitting at HF frequencies. This will allow the range resolution of transmitting antennas to be improved so that targets, as well as ocean surface wave and current parameters, may be respectively better detected and estimated. […]

Canadian salmon production is the fourth largest farmed salmon industry in the world. Farmed salmon is British Columbia’s (BC) largest agri-food export with a total economic output of $1.6 billion annually, which represents 60% of total production in Canada. Approximately, 90,000 tonnes of farmed salmon are produced in BC every year which in turn supports […]

Valorisation des matières résiduelles textiles(de l’entreprise Certex) envoyées au sited’enfouissement

L’intérêt de la recherche réside dans le fait qu’une entreprise comme Certex envoie à l’enfouissement entre 750 et 1000 tonnes de rebuts de textile annuellement. Les auteurs Stall–Meadows et al. (2012) affirment que près de 100% de ce type de rebuts pourrait être recyclé.13 L’objet de cette étude consiste à évaluer les perspectives de défibrer […]

Metal-organic framework-based electrodes for CO2 capture and conversion

The world’s stringent need to transition to a low-carbon industrial economy is more pressing than ever. It is imperative to innovate, develop, and implement revolutionary technologies that use low-carbon-intensity energy generation sources and have an intrinsic negative GHG emission factor while being economically profitable. The electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction to fuels and chemicals coupled with […]

Defocus and Aberration Modeling for RGBInfrared Cameras

Conventional camera sensors record three color channels: red, green and blue. In this project we will investigate computational photography algorithms for cameras that record a near-infrared channel (NIR) in addition to RGB. This channel is particularly useful for biometric imaging and holds great potential in consumer imaging applications as well. The key challenge in simultaneously […]
