Characterising industrial tourism in the cross-border region: Portugal and Spain
Scalabrini, Elaine C.B.; Alves, Francisco; Neto, Reginaldo; Teixeira, Felipe; García, Joaquín; Velasco, Miguel; Teixeira, João Paulo; Vaz, RobertoPurpose | Industrial tourism is an emerging sector highlighting the historical industrial landscape, fostering regional development, community revitalisation, and heritage preservation. Factories, mines, and transport infrastructure can be transformed into museums and interactive spaces. Industrial tourism can also include tours of active industrial sites where production remains the primary focus (Friel et al....
Defining industrial tourism in the cross-border region of Portugal and Spain
Scalabrini, Elaine C.B.; Alves, Francisco; Neto, Reginaldo; Teixeira, Felipe L.; García, Joaquín; Velasco, Míguel; Teixeira, João PauloThis paper deals with the definition and valorisation of industrial and pre-industrial tourism in the crossborder region of Terras de Trás-os-Montes (Portugal) and Castilla y León (Spain). Industrial and preindustrial heritage is crucial to collective memory and has significant cultural, historical and tourist value. Industrial tourism is emerging as an initiative that enhances historic landscapes and contribut...

In-Hospital Falls and Fractures: Underreported, Overlooked, and Lethal
Rodrigues, Estefania; Silva, Ana Margarida; Abranches, Madalena; Alves, Francisco; Alves, MarianaIntroduction: In-hospital falls are a persistent issue and the most frequently reported adverse event among older patients. Fall rates typically range from 3 to 11 per 1,000 patient-days, with 25–40% causing injury and up to 10% resulting in serious harm. In Portugal, falls account for 21% of all hospital-reported incidents, according to the National Incident Identification System, highlighting the need for eff...
Population dynamics and economic strategies for enhancing industrial heritage: ...
Scalabrini, Elaine C.B.; Alves, Francisco; Neto, Reginaldo; Garcia, Joaquín; Teixeira, Felipe; Vaz, Roberto; Teixeira, João PauloThis paper presents a bibliometric analysis examining the relationship between population dynamics and economic strategies for valorising industrial heritage based on 260 articles published between 1990 and 2025. The study reveals an exponential increase in publications from 2019 onward, reflecting a growing interest in this subject. The journal Sustainability emerges as the predominant source of publication, u...
Extending the Finite Area Method for enhanced simulation of deformable membrane...
Galuppo, Wagner de Campos; Santana, Pedro; Alves, Francisco; Nóbrega, J. M.This paper investigates the mechanics of the Extrusion Blow Moulding (EBM) process, focusing on the clamp and inflation phases. The simulation framework employed in this study has been developed using OpenFOAM ® and extends the available Finite Area Method with a vertex-centred approach. This cutting-edge developments integrated a corotational formulation with a quasi-static approximation. The computational cod...
Rionor - hi, we are here
Pereira, Fernando A.; Rodrigues, Pedro; Alves, Francisco; Almeida, Hugo; Amaral, Lara; Luz, MarcoRIONOR (Western Iberian Network for a New Borderland Order), founded on 1 October 2016 in a small house on the Rio de Onor border, is a transnational Iberian association led by Raiano citizens from both sides of the frontier. It seeks to become a school of citizenship, promoting civic participation, building critical awareness of the surrounding social reality, and deepening cross-border cooperation between Trá...
Paresia do IV par craniano: Avaliação Quantitativa do Outcome Cirúrgico
Brissos, Júlio; Almeida, Guilherme; Louro, Marta; Leitão, Miguel; Alves, Francisco; Frazão, Sara; Santos, Cristina; Seldon, Raquel; Varandas, GabrielaIntrodução: A paresia do IV par craniano (P IV) é a uma das principais causas de diplopia vertical em adultos e crianças. Apesar de alguns casos apresentarem recuperação espontânea, os restantes não são autolimitados e a cirurgia surge como principal arma terapêutica. O objetivo do nosso estudo passou por aplicar um método de avaliação quantitativa do campo visual binocular (CVB) e, assim, definir o outcome cir...

Fully Automated Production of [68Ga]GaFAPI-46 with Gallium-68 from Cyclotron Us...
Fonseca, Alexandra I.; Alves, Vítor H.; Hrynchak, Ivanna; Alves, Francisco68Ga-based radiopharmaceuticals are routinely used for PET imaging of multiple types of tumors. Gallium-68 is commonly obtained from 68Ge/68Ga generators, which are limited in the quantity of activity produced. Alternatively, gallium-68 can easily be produced on a cyclotron using liquid targets. In this study, we optimized the GMP production of [68Ga]GaFAPI-46 using gallium-68 produced via a standard medical cy...
