Instrumentation et évaluation quantitative de l’impact dynamique de la glace sur les piliers d’évacuateur de crues

Ce projet de recherche, en collaboration avec Hydro-Québec, vise à mesurer l’impact dynamique de la glace sur les piliers des évacuateurs de crues et à vérifier les forces calculées selon diverses normes et guides. L’aménagement hydroélectrique de Rivière-des-Prairies a été choisi en raison de ses fréquents déversements en hiver et au printemps, qui exposent les piliers à des impacts de glace. Pour ce faire, nous équiperons les piliers de capteurs et de caméras pour mesurer et observer les impacts réels. Ce projet, mené à Montréal, aidera à améliorer l’évaluation des barrages existants et sera essentiel pour les projets de réhabilitation et de conception de nouveaux évacuateurs. Les résultats permettront des conceptions plus précises et économiques, ce qui bénéficiera grandement aux ingénieurs du Québec et du Canada.

Stage UdeM x UnPointCinq

Dans le cadre de son stage à Unpointcinq, média de l’action climatique au Québec, Emmalie va contribuer à la production de vidéos de terrain et de contenus journalistiques pertinents, assurer une veille médiatique, proposer des idées de sujets qui répondent aux objectifs du projet de stage, se charger de la production de reportages vidéo dans son entièreté (recherche, terrain, tournage, montage, etc) et participer aux rencontres d’équipe d’Unpointcinq et, selon son intérêt, s’impliquer dans d’autres projets développés par la rédaction.
Parmi ses objectifs de stage, Emmalie développera et testera de nouveaux types de contenus vidéos, en particulier des vidéos “tutos” pratiques qui, tout en abordant des thématiques liées à l’enjeu climatique, présenteront des solutions concrètes, faciles à mettre en œuvre et qui sont dans l’air du temps/tendances. Emmalie travaillera également à construire une pratique journalistique à son image, fruit de son parcours préablable en danse (création et interprétation de projets variés) et de sa formation récente dans le domaine du journalisme.

Using genotyping by sequencing to detect introgressed regions of genomic DNA in two Fundulus species

Species are delimited by barriers to reproduction, which can be caused by genetic incompatibilities that arise when isolated populations become two distinct species. Nevertheless, hybridization can occur when species are genetically similar enough to have few barriers to reproduction. If the hybrid offspring is viable and fertile, it can mate with either of the parental species, resulting in introgression (i.e., the incorporation of genetic material from one parental species into the other). Previous work has reported that two species of killifish, the mummichog and the banded killifish, are able to hybridize in brackish waters and produce viable, fertile offspring. We have recently documented, for the first time, mummichog mtDNA introgression in banded killifish populations in New Brunswick estuaries. This project aims to determine whether introgression is occurring by identifying which parts of the banded killifish genomes contain alleles usually found in the mummichog genome and vice versa using the genotyping by sequencing method. Once genotyping is done, we hope to determine, if present, whether the introgression is adaptative, neutral or harmful using population genetic methods. This will allow us to detect if the hybridization process allows one or both species to better adapt to a rapidly changing coastal environment.

System and algorithm development of ballistocardiograph-based remote monitoring system for heart failure patients

Remotely monitoring the heart is crucial for reducing the hospital readmission rate of heart failure (HF) patients. However, for aging populations with physical and cognitive limitations, existing monitoring techniques such as self-management or CardioMEMS remain demanding or invasive. There is a growing need for easy-to-use and non-invasive remote monitoring. Ballistocardiograph (BCG) measures the mechanical vibration arising from heart contractions during the cardiac cycle. Our sensors enable BCG collection through clothes and without skin contact. Our objective is to develop an automated algorithm to extract physiological parameters and indicate key symptoms of heart failure, such as congestion, from BCG. We also want to communicate the relevant monitoring findings to the stakeholders such as clinicians and caregivers. To do so requires the development of a communication protocol to deliver the information reliably and economically. The results of the proposed project will form core components of the final product of the partner organization and are important stepping stones to regulatory approval, market-entry, and business model development.

Conflict over noise in the city: the issue of motor vehicle noise in the city

The proposed research project focuses on investigating the growing problem of motor vehicle noise in urban environments, particularly how it affects residents’ physical and mental health, overall well-being, and willingness to live in densely populated areas. Through a combination of analysis methods involving interviews and fieldwork observations, the project will explore how residents experience and respond to noise from cars, motorcycles, and modified vehicles. It will also include the study of car and motorcycle enthusiasts’ behavior and their perception of the noise they generate, as well as the examination of existing motor vehicle noise regulations and policies in the Toronto Metropolitan Area. The project will provide a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted issue of motor vehicle noise in the city and its multidimensional impacts. It also aims to improve the quality of life in urban centers by offering evidence-based recommendations to address noise problems. The research will contribute to academic discourse, as the findings may serve as a foundation for future research by providing a framework for studying noise pollution across various contexts. The generated knowledge is relevant to Ukraine, considering the persistent problems of noise-related issues associated with warfare, making this project highly valuable for both Canada and Ukraine.

Amélioration des services publics de la Ville de Trois-Rivières

Cinq projets permettant d’optimiser les services de la ville. Par exemple, le projet d’assistant virtuel permettra de décupler la réponse aux incidents TI par l’intégration de réponses automatisée lors des requêtes de premier niveau, favorisant aussi la satisfaction des utilisateurs interne de la Ville et en diminuant le temps de réponse. La direction des technologies de l’information de la ville de Trois-Rivières répond aux besoins des autres directions de la Ville, que ce soit des projets en lien avec la gestion du transport intelligent pour les travaux publics (déneigement, fluidité de la circulation, réseau cyclable, etc), de la sécurité publique (police et incendie), des activités administratives de taxation et d’évaluation foncière, d’aménagement du territoire et du développement durable pour ne nommer que quelques exemples. Les systèmes d’information et géospatiaux sont au coeur des activités d’une ville afin d’offrir des services de qualité aux citoyens, en ce contexte de
pénurie de main-d’oeuvre TI, plusieurs activités d’avant-projet ou de preuve de concept sont en attente dans l’organisation.

Comparaison des politiques de substitution des biosimilaires et leur impact sur l’accès au médicament au Canada

Les médicaments biologiques sont de plus en plus prescrits et coutent cher aux régimes d’assurances publics étant donné leur prix relativement élevé. Quand un agent biologique arrive à terme de son brevet, les compétiteurs peuvent sortir des produits d’efficacité et d’innocuité semblable. Ces produits sont appelés biosimilaire. À fin de réduire les coûts relatifs aux médicament biologiques, les gouvernements des différentes provinces ont commencé à appliquer une politique de substitutions qui exige qu’un agent biologique est substitué par son biosimilaire une fois ce dernier devient disponible sur le marché canadien. Ce projet vise à étudier et comparer l’impact de ces politiques sur l’accès au médicament et la réductions des coûts entre les provinces.
