Chaque saison de pêche, les pêcheurs de homard prennent la mer à bord de leur bateau pour installer les lignes de casiers afin de récolter ce produit marin. Le travail s’effectue sur une surface glissante, mouvante et encombrée de cordages, souvent dans des conditions difficiles. Les chutes par-dessus bord, dues à l’enchevêtrement dans les engins […]

As technology continues to make smaller and more flexible devices possible manufacturers of these devices need ways to hold them together. Normal methods of bonding two thin pieces of metal together no longer meet all the depends placed on them by the relatively small size of the devices. In order to meet this challenge this […]

The web browser is arguably the most security-critical component in our information infrastructure. Banking, social networking, shopping, navigation, and card payments – almost any activity you can imagine now takes place within a browser window. HTML5 is a potential candidate for changing our experience on the web and its sale on devices is forecasted to […]

Fuel cells are a clean energy technology that generates electricity without harmful emissions and uses hydrogen as the fuel in place of oil. As fuel cell electric vehicles are deployed globally on a significant scale, it is critical to ensure high levels of operational durability and reliability, equal to or exceeding that of incumbent engine […]

The project is concerned with delivering a real-world joint perception prediction and tracking system that outperforms the current system implemented in the Uber ATG software stack. This will be achieved by implementing a production version of a state-of-the-art academic paper developed by the research team, testing it against real world scenarios, and then modifying the […]

Avec l’avènement des véhicules électriques et les énergies photovoltaïques sur les réseaux électriques, il est maintenant requis de convertir l’énergie sous différentes formes. Cette conversion s’effectue par l’utilisation de convertisseurs de puissance qui permettent de relier les différents éléments sur le réseau (batteries d’auto, cellules photovoltaïques,…) Comme élément de contrôle principal, ces convertisseurs utilisent des […]

This research supports the T’Sou-ke Nation to re-establish connections with culturally important native plant species cultivated and stewarded by traditional T’Sou-ke peoples for food, medicine and technology and to store this information in database and maps. The product of this research will be accessed when T’Sou-ke consider both large, economic development projects proposed within their […]

In the MRI-guided stereotactic surgery, a robotic system is applied to assist the efficient workflow, process accuracy and safety. An important issue in the robot system is that the MRI closed-hole design limits its dimensional requirements and flexibility. In this project, a conceptual design will be proposed to reduce the robot size and increase its […]

Nuclear transfer is a technique to clone animals of the same trait and it is industrially very valuable to clone animals of excellent traits. However, there is no standardized technology to secure, store and supply enough quantities of superior genetics to clone elite farm animals so it has limitation to use in industry field. Although […]

With increased levels of series compensation of transmission lines (Which is the most economical solution for bulk power transmission over long distances) and with more power electronic controllers such as HVDC, FACTS and converter based distributed generation in the power network, Sub Synchronous Interaction (SSI) problems arise. It is necessary to identify different types of […]

Artificial Intelligence (AI) research has grown rapidly in recent years as the result of faster computers and better algorithms. AI models can be trained to automate the decision process and provide results. However, if the model is not properly or sufficiently trained, the outcome will likely be unpredictable and inaccurate. Besides, training data is not […]

L’évolution technologique révolutionne les processus administratifs dans les banques et les assurances, mais entraîne également de nouveaux défis, en particulier au niveau de la reconnaissance de l’écriture manuscrite et imprimée dans les documents qui doivent être numérisés pour extraire automatiquement l’information pertinente. Les systèmes de dialogues automatisés connaissent également un succès grandissant, grâce à l’utilisation […]
