Towards accurate 5G assisted management of UAV swarm crowded urban airspace

Low-altitude Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) flight operations are regulated by safety protocols provided by aviation authorities, particularly in the vicinity of crowded airspace e.g. airports. With a fast-growing market for and penetration of commercial UAVs, the possibility of UAV intrusions within controlled airspace is expected to increase, despite these regulations. At lower altitudes, this increases […]

Standard-Operational optimization of fleet management of Autonomous Mobile Robots

In smart factories, the seamless operation of operations heavily relies on efficient fleet management of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs). While fleet management algorithms play a crucial role in ensuring smooth operations, they may encounter difficulties in effectively handling conflicts and tracking the performance of AMRs. To address these limitations and develop an enhanced fleet management […]

Learning and routing in last-mile delivery

The vehicle routing problem and its extensions have been successful in optimizing a measure such as time or cost, but only when these measures can be accurately estimated or approximated. However, this is not the case in complex environments. Particularly in urban routing, it is generally complicated, and efficient routing requires tacit knowledge of the […]

La brigade débarcadère: mieux accompagner nos élèves vers la sécurité routière

Le présent projet a pour objectif d’évaluer les impacts de l’implantation d’une brigade débarcadère aux abords d’écoles primaire sur la sécurité routière des élèves qui les fréquentent. Par l’utilisation d’observations sur le terrain à l’aide de grilles d’évaluation, l’équipe de recherche pourra mesurer les effets de telles brigades sur les comportements routiers aux abords des […]

Aircraft systems noise / Bruit de systèmes avion

De multiples sources vibrantes intégrées dans les avions sont à l’origine de niveaux acoustiques gênants à l’intérieur de la cabine de l’appareil. Ce bruit, appelé bruit de structure (SBN, acronyme de l’anglais Structure Borne Noise), résulte de la transmission des vibrations internes des sources à leur support et est un élément majeur dans la conception […]
