With the development of advance telecommunication systems, new opportunities for real-time public transport monitoring has been created. Traffic congestion in the vehicular ad-hoc network can be typically caused by an accident, construction zones, special events, and adverse weather. This research presents a cognitive framework to address real-time routing problem and and arrival time prediction for […]

This project will undertake research on the governance of shipping Canada (a) to explain its global and domestic structures, frameworks, actors, interconnections, and processes in the simplest terms possible and (b) to analyse contemporary major drivers of change in the system. Four transformative issue areas will be addressed, namely the interface between shipping and Indigenous […]

The goal of this research is to leverage the telematics data collected in the context of the usage-based insurance program at Intact for road safety improvement. Specifically, we aim to tackle issues on the identification of risky driver behaviors through the characterization of unsafe events and to identify sites on the road network with high […]

BusPas Inc. et ISR Transit veulent innover en développant une plateforme d’applications mobiles utilisant des données pré-mutualisées, intégrant la mobilité 4POINT0 dans la ville intelligente. L’objectif est de permettre aux utilisateurs et aux fournisseurs de services de mobilités de gagner en flexibilité, de limiter les pertes et d’augmenter l’efficience des réseaux de mobilité. Ce type […]

Les indicateurs d’accessibilité aux destinations permettent de mesurer la performance conjointe des systèmes de transport et d’aménagement du territoire. Bien que leur apport à une meilleure planification des transports ait été largement démontré, ils sont encore peu utilisés en pratique, étant donné les défis liés à leur opérationnalisation. Le projet proposé vise donc à développer […]

This research project is part of a bigger initiative driven by Tangente AI and BusPas that fits into the context of intelligent mobility within “smart cities” and is focuses on improving the urban logistics services for the transport of citizens/passengers. More specifically, by leveraging on the Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and applications, within the […]

Integral Abutment Bridges (IABs) are unique structures in the sense that they are rigid compared to typical bridges that have bearing connections. Bridges are designed to withstand forces sourcing from its own weight and ongoing traffic as well as temperature forces. As the temperature varies (cyclic in nature), the bridge experiences contraction and expansion forces […]

Walking and wheeling to/from school represents an important source of physical activity for children. As policy decisions about how we build our neighbourhoods, schools, and transportation systems have changed, we have seen a worrisome decrease in the number of children who use active modes of travel to get to/from school. We have limited research mapping […]

Current work presents an overall framework for control and monitoring of dynamic position of vessel in the offshore facilities. In the core of the framework a control system will be used to keep vessel in desired position and an estimator to estimate ice, wind speed etc. Outer layer of the framework presents a monitoring system […]

The growing amounts of metal waste being transported and recycled is a challenging problem. This research project aims to build efficient daily vehicle routes of the reverse logistics problem and collecting metal waste form different points in order to minimize total costs under multiple operational constraints. The reverse logistics vehicle routing problem which combines a […]

The Gulo Gulo project objective is to improve the navigation algorithm utilized by the onboard motion sensors of AV/CVs to achieve positioning accuracy of less than 1% of the distance travelled with standalone INS solutions. The standalone solution will be aided with visions sensors (camera, LIDAR and RADAR) in addition to integrated system fusion with […]

Porous Rubber Pavement (PRP) is a new type of permeable pavement in North America. It consists of stone aggregates, crumb rubber from recycled tires, and polyurethane as a binder. Due to a higher percentage of air voids (27% to 29%) and flexible nature, it offers extensive environmental and safety benefits, including improved stormwater management, reduced […]
