Intensive dairy cattle breeding has a relevant social and economic impact in Portugal, particularly in the northern region. This activity generates a high flow of livestock effluents (slurry), rich in important nutrients for plant growth, which can be introduced into intensive production forestry systems. These effluents can provide a good alternative to mineral fertilizers, not only from an economic perspectiv...

Lung function tests are critical for diagnosis and monitoring of asthma and other respiratory diseases. Monitoring of lung function, in the absence of a healthcare professional, is very challenging but may be obtained through Smart Devices if automated quality assessment systems guarantee the proper technique during the forced expiratory manoeuvre. This paper describes the evaluation of one such system that use...
The goal of this report is to summarize the current situation and discuss possible search strategies for charged scalars, in non-supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model at the LHC. Such scalars appear in Multi-HiggsDoublet models, in particular in the popular Two-HiggsDoublet model, allowing for charged and additional neutral Higgs bosons. These models have the attractive property that electroweak preci...
The proposed work aims to characterize the inter-annual variability of the mean wind speed for the Dobrogea region of Romania in order to determine the minimum local wind measurements period for its wind regime characterization. To achieve this, wind data from local wind measurements at meteorological stations in operation over the past 6 years and installed in different sites of the region were analyzed. In a ...

Métodos: Entrevista d...
O avanço significativo das tecnologias não invasivas, na última década, permitiu maior clareza e rapidez na obtenção de diagnósticos complexos, no entanto, a suboptimização dos resultados ou as características intrínsecas dos doentes revelam que a avaliação invasiva é muitas vezes indispensável, como acontece na quantificação das perturbações hemodinâmicas associadas a doenças cardiovasculares. Segundo Morton,a...
