Bombardier Transport (BT) is one of world major companies in the transport industry. The application of aluminum in the structure of transport vehicles (cars, trains, ships, etc.) is continuously increasing mainly due to the benefits in weight saving. Therefore BT is also working extensively in implementing the use of aluminum alloys in its products. Welding […]

This project aims to help make neighbourhoods safer, healthier, and more economically vibrant by encouraging people of all ages to walk, cycle, and roll. Fewer children than ever before are walking and biking to school due to parents’ fears that local roads are unsafe. Unsafe roads and unwelcome pedestrian environments also negatively effect local businesses. […]

Maintenance of baggage handling equipment, passenger boarding bridges and aircraft support equipment currently costs the Pearson International Airport (PIA) $10M annually. Much of this cost is associated with routine inspections, replacing drives, lifts and similar industrial process equipment. Current maintenance undertaken by PIA is reactive; replacing or repairing parts on the equipment after break-down. This […]

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 […]

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 […]

The Project builds on existing research to advance the design of a novel, cargo carrying UAV for commercial and humanitarian purposes. The project will apply adaptable winglet, fuselage aerodynamics, and aircraft controller research to tailless, flex-wing ultralight aircraft with 2-axis control. Such an aircraft will have many advantages over conventional fixed wing aircraft, including mission […]

Pour favoriser l’utilisation des transports en commun de manière efficace et répondre aux besoins précis de chacun des utilisateurs, les autorités de transport tendent vers une intégration les différents modes de transports complémentaires (voitures, vélo, covoiturages…). Dans ce cadre, une des problématiques que Bombardier rencontre souvent est l’intégration des vélos dans la définition de l’intérieur […]

Deicing is a complex process involving many actors including pilots, air traffic controllers and the deicing crew. In this context, communication mistakes can easily happen but can also have terrible consequences. The goal of the research project is to identify high risk areas of communication for aircraft ground deicing. Analyze of the voice interaction between […]

The Clear Seas Indigenous Internship Program aims to provide support to First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities across Canada by helping them build the necessary internal capacity to research and protect their territories through a re-imagined internship program. Clear Seas provides mentorship to the interns and uplifts existing internal capacity within Indigenous communities. The Clear […]

Heavy-lift drones offer promising solutions for challenges in wildfire response, construction, and logistics, thanks to their rapid deployment and lower environmental impact. As Pulshn focuses on developing drones capable of transporting heavy payloads, this research aims to support the optimization of drone design for enhanced performance and reliability. Specifically, the study will explore the aerodynamic […]

This project is to build a smart traveler assistant (STA) software system for Free Independent Travelers (FIT). FIT is a travel style where a person plans and books all aspects of their trip themselves, including transportation, accommodations, and itinerary. This STA could plan and book the itinerary before traveling and could replan and rebook the […]

This project will train the intern in using artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision to improve aircraft tracking in airports. Specifically, the intern will work on automating the measurement of the Runway Occupancy Time (ROT) in aircraft, reducing the need for manual tracking and increasing accuracy. The project involves designing a multi-camera system to track […]
