Combustion continues to be the major source of power for electricity, transportation, and material processing. Modem day combustion devices such as automobile engines rely on computer simulations for analysis and optimization of geometry or operating conditions. Combustion problems that are solved to perform such simulations are described by complex multi-scale non-linear mathematical equations that entail […]

The goal of the project is to research and develop computer vision algorithms, software, and specialized hardware for the analysis of mixed traffic at intersections. Road users will be detected and classified as motor vehicles, pedestrians and bicycles. Road users will be geo-located within a 3D model of the intersection, tracked and classified according to […]

In recent years, the North American population has become increasingly dependent on food and consumer product delivery. As a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic there have been surges in delivery demand. There are several active driving-based delivery methods, such as Uber Eats, however drivers are required to navigate through traffic, park, turn off their […]

Because of the usefulness of non-destructive testing in the assessment of different types of materials, they have attracted widespread interest in the last years. Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a descriptive term used for the examination of materials and components in such a way that allows materials to be examined without changing or destroying their function. […]

This project aims at creating a model for forecasting ice formation in the St. Lawrence Seaway between the Welland Canal and Quebec City. This will improve drastically the planning of all maritime operations during the winter transition period, before the freeze-up.

The aviation industry connects people, markets, and cultures around the world and aviation is the key to ensuring that air transport continues to play a major role in driving sustainable economic and social development. The International Air Transport Association (IATA), as the trade association for the world’s airlines, representing some 280 airlines or 83% of […]

La place importante du pétrole aujourd’hui amène le constructeur d’avions à développer des avions consommant de moins en moins avec des performances de plus en plus élevé. C’est dans cette optique que Bombardier Aéronautique a lancé la fabrication des CSeries, avion de ligne à faible consommation. Une saine gestion du programme CSeries est indispensable face […]

Pour mener à bien sa mission une compagnie aérienne se doit de planifier rigoureusement les horaires de ses employés aussi bien que les horaires de ses vols. Parmi les horaires d’employés les plus critiques, il y a évidemment les horaires de vol des pilotes. Afin de garantir les départs de chaque vol, il faut simultanément […]

The freight industry market is complex and dynamic and has many challenges such as inefficient operations, coordination issues, lack of shipment visibility, market volatility, cargo thefts, road incidents, and quality assurance of sensitive products. Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic situation has brought new difficulties to the freight industry in Canada and worldwide. An intelligent platform for […]

La croissance de l’industrie des croisières s’est appuyée ces dernières années sur des navires de plus en plus grands, avec une capacité de plusieurs milliers de passagers. La présence de ces navires modifie l’environnement quotidien des résidents qui les reçoivent. Ces résidents sont une composante fondamentale de l’attractivité des destinations touristiques et la prise en […]

Freight service is an integral part of any business that supplies or sells physical goods. Even though its importance is often hidden from consumers, the sight of trucks and cargo vans on city streets and highways can make one appreciate the extent to which freight service impacts our lives. In North America, many carriers (i.e. […]

Bombardier Transport a développé, en collaboration avec différents partenaires, une cellule de soudage robotisée. Ce projet vise à systématiser et à automatiser la prise de décision pour le pilotage efficient de cet équipement. À terme, le projet permettra de maximiser le potentiel de la cellule et d’équipements comparables dans une perspective intégrée et agile propre […]
