Due to increasing miniaturization, future systems will be made of components that are more energy efficient and at the same time more sensitive to external radiation. To ensure that future systems remain protected against cosmic radiation and single events, aircraft and flight systems manufacturers must collect in-flight data for cosmic radiations and develop a global […]

Hydra Energy Corporation Commercial Demonstration Project will be based in Prince George, British Columbia 12.4 MT/day of waste hydrogen will be captured, purified and transported to an onsite hydrogen refueling station from which (at least) 53 Class 8 tractor-trailer trucks will refuel daily. Hydra’s demonstration project can provide a significant reduction in fleet greenhouse gas(GHG) […]

La volonté de réduire le poids des véhicules de transport conduit les concepteurs à choisir des matériaux et des modes d’assemblage innovateurs. Dans ce contexte, un étudiant de doctorat étudiera la possibilité d’assembler des alliages d’aluminium de nouvelle génération grâce à un procédé soudage par friction malaxage. Des campagnes expérimentales et des simulations numériques seront […]

The proposed project will contribute to Bombardier’s research initiative “Virtual Aircraft” with the overall objective to improve modeling and simulation throughout the development process to enable innovation and reduce development risk through extensive design space exploration. The objective is to develop models of thermal aspects, traditionally investigated later in the design, when the aircraft architecture […]

Chaque année, des millions de dollars sont dépensés pour le transport des biens de base à travers le pays. De plus, la facture ne cesse de grimper étant donné que le prix de l’essence en fait de même. D’autre part, l’industrie du transport est responsable d’une grande partie des émissions de gaz à effet de […]

Le projet s’intitule, « Vision Aéronautique Québec 2030 : Key Science and Technology Drivers ». L’objectif est d’identifier et analyser les innovations technologiques qui transformeront l’industrie aéronautique, en établissant une arborescence des différentes filières au niveau de la technologie et de l’innovation au sein de l’industrie aéronautique québécoise. Le stagiaire débutera par un travail de […]

The Project contributes to the development of a field-ready and commercially useful long-range cargo unmanned aerial vehicle, including analyses of flight envelope and performance characteristics.

Since the adoption of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) signed on January 1st 1994, the amount of truck freight moved between Canada, U.S. and Mexico has increased considerably. However, the transportation of goods has still have some gaps that need to be settled such as loss of merchandise and delay in delivery time. […]

The objective of this research proposal is to develop a framework to track and manage the fatigue of pilots involved with aerial firefighting. Interns of different backgrounds (neuroscience, engineering and statistics) will work together to achieve this goal. The neuroscience intern will collect physiological data to identify how a pilot’s physical and cognitive performance is […]

L’entreprise partenaire est un prestataire de services logistiques qui réalise des activités d’entreposage et des activités à valeur ajoutée pour ses clients comme la mise en conformité, l’étiquetage et le ré-étiquetage ou l’assemblage et l’emballage de certains produits finis. Ainsi, le partenaire doit réaliser et planifier des activités de production. L’entreprise croit qu’elle pourrait gagner […]

Cintra Canada Inc. has conducted several research studies on the advantages of implementing managed lanes (lanes where operational/management strategies are implemented in response to varying travel demand/supply conditions) with the focus on the travel speeds, road capacity, and air quality benefits. However, no study to date, has conducted a comprehensive analysis of the system-wide welfare […]
