Mechanical and Tribological Characterization of WC-Co and WC-AISI 304 Composite...
Vilhena, Luis; Domingues, Bruno; Fernandes, Cristina; Senos, Ana; Ramalho, AmilcarTungsten carbide-based composites are, in many cases, the materials of choice in applications requiring high wear resistance. In the present research work, the mechanical characterization of the WC-Co and WC-AISI 304 composites was carried out, with evaluation of the hardness and fracture toughness and tribological characterization of the composites that included the study of friction and wear rate coefficient ...
Anatomy and clinical relevance of the jugular foramen
Rocha, Rita; Monteiro, Francisco; Domingues, Bruno; Barros Lima, Nuno; Sousa, Manuel; Castro, Fernanda; Condé, ArturThe jugular foramen is a hole in the base of the skull located in the posterior cranial fossa, between the occipital bone and the petrous portion of the temporal bone, which lies above and laterally to the foramen magnum. It is crossed by vascular and nervous structures of great clinical importance, and whose lesion results in clinical otorhinolaryngological manifestations, taking as a whole the designation of ...

Frailty – Prediction of disability in activities of daily living and instrument...
Domingues, Bruno; Pinho, Joana; Coelho, TiagoFrailty is a state of increased vulnerability, which entails a high risk of impairment and disability. There is currently no consensus regarding the characterization of frailty, but in a more current perspective, developed by Gobbens, frailty is defined as a dynamic state that affects the individual who experiences loss in one or more domains (physical, psychological and/ or social). To examine how frailty cont...
Frailty – Prediction of quality of life in a two year follow-up
Pinho, Joana; Domingues, Bruno; Coelho, TiagoFrailty is a state of high vulnerability that entails a high risk of clinically significant adverse outcomes. Traditional approaches define frailty as an exclusively physical condition. More recently, frailty has been defined by Gobbens as a multidimensional state as affecting the individual, who experiences loss of one or more domains of human functioning (physical, psychological, or social). To examine how fr...
