Antunes, AndréA Prática de Ensino Supervisionada constitui o período final do percurso para a obtenção do estatuto que confere à habilitação profissional necessária ao exercício da profissão docente. Este relatório tem como objetivo descrever e refletir todas as atividades desenvolvidas durante a Prática de Ensino Supervisionada no ano letivo 2023/2024, realizada numa instituição de ensino privada, localizada no concelho de ...
Simulating water application efficiency in pressurized irrigation systems: a co...
Carriço, Nelson; Felícissimo, Diogo; Antunes, André; Brito da Luz, PauloThe agricultural sector faces growing environmental and societal pressures to balance natural resource use with food security, particularly within the Water-EnergyFood-Ecosystems Nexus (WEFE). Increasing water demand, competition, and challenges like droughts and desertification are driving the need for innovative irrigation practices. Pressurized irrigation systems, such as sprinkler and micro-irrigation, are ...

Finding novel genes coding for eco-friendly surfactants from hypersaline Iberia...
Santos-Pereira, Cátia; Gomes, Joana S.; Sousa, Joana; Simões, Marta F.; Franco-Duarte, Ricardo; Chaves, Susana R.; Silvério, Sara Isabel CruzSurfactants are tensioactive chemical compounds extensively used worldwide in a myriad of industrial sectors and in our daily lives, being present in numerous products including cosmetics, detergents, fabric softeners, toothpaste, among many others. Millions of tonnes of surfactants are thus manufactured every year. Most commercially available surfactants are non-renewable petroleum-based compounds that can hav...
NSGA-II parameterization for the optimal pressure sensor location in water dist...
Ferreira, Bruno; Antunes, André; Carriço, Nelson; Covas, DídiaThe optimal location of pressure sensors is typicallysolved using heuristic algorithms. Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II) is one of the most used algorithms in the water industry, requiring a preliminary parameter tuning process. The lack of guidelines on how to tune model parameters generally limits the use of these algorithms by researchers or practitioners and, as such, fails to be used in...
An information system for infrastructure asset management tailored to portugues...
Carriço, Nelson; Ferreira, Bruno; Antunes, André; Grueau, Cédric; Barreira, Raquel; Mendes, Ana; Covas, Dídia; Monteiro, Laura; Santos, João FilipeThis paper describes a new information system developed as part of the Portuguese R&D project DECIdE. The project aimed at the development of a platform for infrastructure asset management tailored to Portuguese water utilities. The platform allows the integration of different data from several information systems of the water utilities and includes several tools for the performance assessment of the water supp...
Computational Tools for Supporting the Operation and Management of Water Distri...
Carriço, Nelson; Ferreira, Bruno; Antunes, André; Caetano, João; Covas, DídiaThis paper presents a set of computational tools specially developed for supporting the operation and management of water distribution systems towards digital transformation of water services. These tools were developed in the scope of two R&D projects carried out in Portugal, DECIdE and WISDom, during 2018–2022. The DECIdE project focused on the development of tools for importing cadastral and operational data...
The challenge of the digitalization of the water sector
Carriço, Nelson; Ferreira, Bruno; Antunes, André; Caetano, JoãoThe digitalization of the water sector is of utmost importance for improving the efficiency and sustainability of the managed systems. The digitalization process, however, can be seen as a ladder with several steps that the water utility must climb to become a smart utility. The reality is that many water utilities worldwide have not realized yet the benefits of digital transformation and, thus, the digitalizat...
Hyperparameter Optimization of a Convolutional Neural Network Model for Pipe Bu...
Antunes, André; Ferreira, Bruno; Marques, Nuno; Carriço, NelsonThe current paper presents a hyper parameterization optimization process for a convolutional neural network (CNN) applied to pipe burst locations in water distribution networks (WDN). The hyper parameterization process of the CNN includes the early stopping termination criteria, dataset size, dataset normalization, training set batch size, optimizer learning rate regularization, and model structure. The study w...
