Higher education, universities and especially schools of architecture, have an important role and a specific potential in societies' transition towards sustainable development (SD). New forms of teaching and learning, ...
La historia de la conciencia del cuerpo en la arquitectura y las artes, desde los asclepeiones griegos hasta los hospitales modernos, fue consolidada por la investigación anatómica y desarrollada con mayor precisión en ...
La present tesi doctoral tracta de l’estudi de la tecnologia de membranes des d’un punt de vista aplicat: com és el cas de la nanofiltració (NF) pel tractament d’aigua potable i de l’ús d’un bioreactor de membranes (MBR) ...
The offshore wind sector has grown significantly during the last decades driven by the increasing demand for clean energy and to reach defined energy targets based on renewable energies. As the wind speeds tend to be faster ...
(English) Optical communication systems are widely adopted and responsible for transporting data traffic from access to metro to core networks supporting society’s information and communication functions. As the traffic ...
Transactional Memory (TM) gives software developers the opportunity to write concurrent programs more easily compared to any previous programming paradigms and gives a performance comparable to lock-based synchronization ...
Nowadays, every company seeks to optimize its Supply Chain (SC) in response to competitive pressures or to acquire advantage of new flexibility in the restrictions on world trade. The process systems engineering research ...
Transactional Memory (TM) aims to make shared memory parallel programming easier by abstracting away the complexity of managing shared data. The programmer defines sections of code, called transactions, which the TM system ...
(English) The deployment of 5G antenna infrastructure and the mandatory adoption of anti-collision radars for automotive cars will require large amount of antennas operating in the millimeter and sub-millimeter wavelength. ...
There is ample evidence to show that in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sector, implementation is underway of the Building Information Modelling (BIM) methodology, which is changing the way architectural ...
Any current building is the result of a complex process that involved multiple stakeholders. Owners, architects, engineers, consultants, employees, administration functionary and many others have ...
This work has been developed in a line of research related whit the Intermediate Band (IB) concept, which explores overcoming the photovoltaic efficiency limits established for solar cells. The IB concept implies two issues: ...
The use of plant protection products (PPP) has become an essential tool in agriculture to achieve the minimum requirements of quality and quantity of food demanded by consumers. Moreover, due to its repeated use throughout ...
The present study analyzes the data obtained in the execution of the Opera eLearning project, a multidisciplinary effort to develop a solution for Opera singing distance lessons at the graduate level, using high bandwidth ...
Visual analysis of human movements concerns the understanding of human activities from image sequences. The goal of the action/gesture recognition is to recognize the label that corresponds to an action or gesture made by ...
Optical excitable systems that mimic neuronal behavior have potential to be building-blocks of novel, ultra-fast, neuron-inspired photonic information processing systems. In particular, semiconductor lasers with optical ...
With the recent growth of social media platforms and the human desire to interact with the digital world a lot of human-human and human-device interaction data is getting generated every second. With the boom of the Internet ...
The research that we presently put forward as a doctorate thesis departed from a hypothesis set in questioning canonical assumptions of Portuguese architecture as an essentially empirical and intuitive practice. This ...
Terahertz is the portion of the spectrum that covers a frequency range between 300 GHz - 3 THz. This frequency band has proven its potential for imaging applications thanks to the good compromise between spatial resolution ...
Many of the citizen's daily activities take place in the streets. Climatic conditions in between buildings largely affect the user’s comfort of these spaces, and, consequently, the human perception of the city environment. ...
