Production of an extract rich in alpha-tomatine from green tomatoes by subcriti...
Faria-Silva, Catarina; Pedras, Bruno; Costa, Nuno; Carvalheiro, Manuela; Simões, Sandra; Simões, PedroResearch Institute for Medicines\u2014iMed.ULisboa is funded by FCT through project UID 04138. Publisher Copyright: © 2025 The Authors.; Green tomatoes, a by-product of agro-food industry, are rich in the glycoalkaloid alpha-tomatine. This compound presents health benefits including anti-inflammatory and fungicide properties. Subcritical water extraction (SWE), a green and sustainable process, was used to obtai...

Assessing the resilience of optimal solutions in multiobjective problems
Costa, Nuno; Lourenço, JoãoPublisher Copyright: © 2023 The Authors; Processes and products are multidimensional so researchers and practitioners have to solve problems with multiple objectives frequently. These problems have, in general, responses in conflict so they do not have a unique solution. Different approaches have been proposed in the literature to solve these problems, but many of them, including the popular desirability functi...

Process and Product Optimization Using Game Theory
Costa, Nuno; Lourenço, JoãoPublisher Copyright: © 2023 ACM.; Game Theory has not been explored so far in multi-objective optimization problems developed in the Response Surface Methodology framework, though optimization of multiple characteristics of process and product is a usual problem faced by practitioners in (non)manufacturing environments. In this paper the Stackelberg's technique complemented with a Factors Scaling tool is propos...

Bi-Objective Optimization Problems—A Game Theory Perspective to Improve Process...
Costa, Nuno; Lourenço, JoãoPublisher Copyright: © 2022 by the authors. This research received no external funding.; Cost-effective manufacturing processes or products are no longer the only requirements for business sustainability. An approach based on Game Theory is suggested to find solutions for bi-objective problems. In particular, Stackelberg’s technique is employed and complemented with the Factors Scaling tool to help the users in...
Transarterial Embolization of Iatrogenic Cystic Artery Pseudoaneurysm
Proença, Ana Luísa; Veloso Gomes, Filipe; Costa, Nuno; Bilhim, Tiago; Luz, José Hugo; Coimbra, ÉliaCystic artery pseudoaneurysm (CAP) is a rare entity most often resulting from inflammatory conditions (acute cholecystitis or pancreatitis) or iatrogenic trauma (cholecystectomy). We report the case of a 73-year-old female who presented with abdominal pain and gastrointestinal bleeding after an episode of acute cholecystitis and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography for choledocolithiasis removal. Comp...
Extending NoHR for OWL 2 QL
Costa, Nuno; Knorr, Matthias; Leite, JoãoPartially supported by Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia under project PTDC/EIA-CCO/121823/2010 and strategic project PEst/UID/CEC/04516/2013. M. Knorr was also supported by grant SFRH/BPD/86970/2012.; The Protégé plug-in NoHR allows the user to combine an OWL 2 EL ontology with a set of nonmonotonic (logic programming) rules - suitable, e.g., to express defaults and exceptions - and query the combined kno...
