Validation de l’immplantation d’un programme d’entraînement à haute intensité à l’aide du HITrainer chez des élèves du secondaire

Ce projet vise à valider l’utilisation d’un appareil d’entraînement en haute intensité, développé pour l’entraînement de haut niveau en milieu sportif, vers un milieu tout à fait novateur pour ce type d’appareil, qui est celui de l’éducation auprès d’étudiants du secondaire. De plus, il permettra d’évaluer les perceptions des jeunes de secondaire en ce qui a trait aux changements liés à leur participation au programme d’entrainement de courte durée et haute intensité sur leurs facteurs de réussite scolaire, leur estime de soi et les bons coups favorisant leur participation à ce projet.

Apprentissage automatique pour la résolution de problèmes de tournées de véhicules avec préférences implicites

Fastercom est une entreprise spécialisée dans le développement d’algorithmes et de logiciels permettant de résoudre différentes formes du problème de tournée de véhicules, le « Vehicle Routing Problem » (VRP). Les contraintes considérées sont généralement très diverses et varient selon les domaines des clients. L’objectif de ce projet est de concevoir une méthode visant à améliorer l’efficacité des résolutions de problèmes de tournées de véhicules en tenant compte des préférences implicites des répartiteurs, chauffeurs ou autres profils opérationnels ayant développés une connaissance du terrain et des enjeux concrets des tournées de véhicules dans le mode réel. Pour cela, nous prévoyons d’utiliser des méthodes de pointe en apprentissage automatique pour obtenir ces contraintes de préférences implicites.

SSE_GUILLAUME LESSARD-ECOHABITATION-louison devillard – Formation « Vers des municipalité post-carbones et résilientes »

Écohabitation développe une démarche complète de services afin d’aider les municipalités à effectuer leur transition écologique et éco-énergétique (accompagnement, développement de programmes, service d’expertise, formations, conseil…), et ce, afin de répondre à une demande et une urgence exprimées. La question de la voie à prendre pour réussir ces transitions est un sujet de débat à teneur politique alors qu’il devrait être à teneur scientifique. Les décideurs municipaux (élus et directeurs) réclament des ressources ou un accès à une information juste, neutre et objective liées à ce qu’ils peuvent faire à l’intérieur du cadre législatif et juridique municipal.
Écohabitation désire à cet effet développer une formation thématique aux arguments scientifiques vulgarisés pour les décideurs municipaux touchant la ville résiliente post-carbone qui doit arborer les chemins de la transition pour y arriver. Qu’est-ce que cela veut dire ? Qu’est ce qui doit être fait ? Quels dogmes devons-nous abandonner et quels paradigmes devons-nous adopter ? Sur quoi agir urgemment et qui soit puissant en termes de résultats ?
Ces questions seront répondues à travers 7 thèmes qui composeront la formation (transition, aménagement, énergie, capital écologique, eaux, habitation, matériaux et matières résiduelles) qui combinera une interview de spécialistes reconnus et du matériel didactique en appui.

A rapid systematic COSMIN review of impact indicators suitable for the Canadian Cancer Society’s knowledge mobilization programs

In partnership with donors and volunteers the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) continuously improves impact through cancer research, advocacy and support services. CCS’ goal is to provide the highest quality cancer information for all Canadians, promote cancer prevention, and provide targeted support to help people with cancer, their families and caregivers, cope.
This project aims to support the articulation of impact of the CCS. Given the CCS’ broad scope of programming, the identification of outcomes and the selection of instruments to measure outcomes requires a rigorous approach. The project will rely on an established approach for the selection of instruments and the assessment of their quality – the COSMIN methodology. The COSMIN approach is a type of systematic review that focuses on instruments and their properties. The project will be an important step in CCS’ development of an impact measurement framework to highlight its importance, its successes and identify areas for improvement.

Compressed Air Energy Transmission

This research project focuses on developing a compressed air energy transmission system as an alternative to the current electrical energy transmission system. Compressed air has the potential to be an efficient and cost-effective solution for storing energy from renewable sources like wind and solar. The project will focus on improving the efficiency of current compressed air energy storage systems by utilizing a novel Variable Pressure Vessel. The research will assess technical factors such as pressure and power loss, as well as economic parameters related to production, transportation, conversion, and storage of compressed air. By addressing the challenges of efficiency and cost, this project will contribute to the advancement of energy storage technologies and support the integration of renewable energy sources into the existing energy infrastructure. The outcomes of this research will provide valuable insights into efficient and sustainable energy transportation and storage systems.
