The mining industry faces a massive human resource challenge in the next decade. The Certificate in Mining Studies (CMS) is a continuing education program offered by a network of mining schools and course providers. It is designed for those who seek industry-leading professional development and career advancement in the mining sector. In order to refine […]

The year 2017 marks the 375th anniversary of the foundation of the city of Montreal. The Laboratory of Remote Sensing, Department of Geography, Montreal University, and Esri Canada want to take part in the celebrations by offering to the Montreal community an interactive tool illustrating the historical evolution of the city of Montreal. To develop […]

Quantum information processing holds the promise of the next revolution in information technologies. Many implementation candidates are still being investigated. One of them is superconducting circuits. Studying quantum systems in general is a computationally difficult task. If one hopes to build scalable and reliable devices, one must resort to approximate numerical design tools. Tensor networks […]

Ce projet de recherche a pour objectif de contribuer au développement de nouvelles structures isolantes pour les transformateurs de puissance avec l’application de nouveaux papiers thermiquement meilleurs que ceux actuellement utilisés. La recherche inclut des papiers isolants avec différentes teneurs en azote. Différentes propriétés mécaniques, et physico-chimiques seront déterminées après des essais de vieillissements accélérés. […]

Insect pollinator health is a crucial component of managed and natural landscapes due to their important impact on crop pollination and ecosystem equilibrium. Some pollinator populations have experience notable declines, due to changes in habitat, presence of pests and pathogens, pesticides and toxins present in the environment as well as nutritional requirements. A proper identification […]

Ontario’s chicken industry contributes $2.72 billion to Canadian economy, and supports 19,183 full-time equivalent jobs (Ontario Chicken Industry Report, 2013). To date, 2015 has seen 309 individual outbreaks of avian influenza (AI) reported to the World Organization for Animal Health, a 147% increase on outbreaks reported in 2014. In Ontario alone, 29 farms were quarantined […]

Automation of medical diagnosis/detection process is very important in terms of enhancing diagnostic accuracy, increasing throughput, reducing costs, and training new staff. Our current goal is to go from the proof of concept stage (automatic recognition and classification of human blood images) to a complete working and optimized prototype and to start testing it in […]

The Aboriginal housing situation in Canada is in crisis with a lack of culturally and environmentally appropriate housing. A Participatory Approach towards Housing Solutions (PATHS) Framework has been developed that recognizes and visualizes the strengths and limitations of communities, and assesses pathways with which they may achieve their housing goals. Communities are actively engaged in […]

The coastal marine regions of Canada are an excellent source of renewable energy. Tides and currents are predictable in space and time so ideal for tidal energy. Coastal areas with strong currents are also popular with marine mammals often providing good feeding opportunities. However little is known about how marine mammals will be affected by […]

Dans l’optique de lutter contre la problématique de prolifération des cyanobactéries dans les plans d’eau, le phosphore contenu dans les rejets d’eaux usées est ciblé par un resserrement des exigences de rejet. Dans la continuité d’une collaboration entre le CRIQ et l’Université Laval dans le développement de technologies d’épuration passives, les plus récents travaux ont […]

The role of infectious disease in declining productivity of wild salmon in BC is poorly understood. We will combine novel genomic technologies with traditional fish health methodologies and more broadly identify the microbe exposure of BC salmon. By doing so, we can examine their evolutionary relationships and their epidemiological distribution patterns over time and space […]

This proposal uses ANSYS multi-physics software to perform a stress and thermal analysis and real time workshop simulation study of the new proposed IPM-ESP motor drive technology. A multi-domain system design environment can be done in the ANSYS multi-physics to provide a thorough picture of the system analysis.
