Duarte, Daniel; Fonseca, IvoThis study presents a redesign proposal for the onboarding process of a Smart Home application developed by Altice Labs, aiming to address issues identified in a previous version regarding aesthetic coherence and usability. Grounded in the principles of emotional design and the temporality of user experience, a new approach was developed focusing on a unified visual language and the use of animations as an enga...
Relationship between Objective and Subjective Fatigue Monitoring Tests in Profe...
Lourenço, João; Gouveia, Elvio Rúbio; Sarmento, Hugo; Ihle, Andreas; Ribeiro, Tiago; Henriques, Ricardo; Martins, Francisco; França, CíntiaStudying fatigue is challenging because it is influenced by physiological, psychological, and sociological states. Fatigue can be assessed objectively or subjectively, but the literature has difficulty understanding how an analytical test relates to a response via a questionnaire. Thus, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationships between objective fatigue variables (Squat Jump (SJ) and Countermo...

Assessment of larval quality of two bivalve species, Crassostrea angulata and C...
Anjos, Catarina; Duarte, Daniel; Diogo, Patrícia; Matias, Domitília; Cabrita, ElsaMarine bivalves are valuable resources, however, some shellfish populations are endangered due to factors such as anthropogenic pressure, pathologies or lack of reproduction synchrony. Portuguese oyster (Crassostrea angulata) and striped venus clam (Chamelea gallina) have high socio-economic value and their endangered natural populations require rehabilitation. Cryopreservation is a valuable method for the pres...
Effect of trehalose and sucrose in post-thaw quality of Crassostrea angulata sperm
Anjos, Catarina; Santos, Ana Luísa; Duarte, Daniel; Matias, Domitília; Cabrita, ElsaSperm cryopreservation can be a helpful tool in reproductive management and preservation of biodiversity. However, the freezing methodologies lead to some damage in structure and function of cells that may compromise post-thaw sperm activity. Cryoprotectant supplementation with sugars proved to be a successful strategy to reduce cryodamage in sperm of several species, once allowing to stabilize the plasma membr...
E-imigrações
Santos, Alckmar Luiz dos; Duarte, Rafael Soares; Rutes, Vinícius; Casal, Samuel; Duarte, Daniel; Kreutz, RafaelaE-imigrações é uma criação literária digital que, a par dos elementos usuais desse tipo de obra (interatividade, iteratividade, imersibilidade), baseia-se também na linguagem das histórias-em-quadrinhos e numa poética da visualidade. O ponto de partida são tragédias em regiões localizadas que levam a grandes e trágicos deslocamentos populacionais. Em outras palavras, há um evidente esforço narrativo em nossa cr...

Teques, Pedro; Duarte, Daniel; Viana, JoãoIn the last 10 years, emotional intelligence (EI) has become a current issue of research in psychology, and there are indicators to consider that EI should be analyzed to help the coach to behave effectively during competitions. According to Boardley's (2018) revised model of coaching efficacy, coaches' EI is predictive of their efficacy beliefs, which, in turn, is predictive of coaching behavior. However, litt...
Edible Leafy Vegetables from West Africa (Guinea-Bissau): Consumption, Trade an...
Catarino, Luís; Romeiras, Maria M.; Bancessi, Quintino; Duarte, Daniel; Faria, Diana; Monteiro, Filipa; Moldão, MargaridaWild Edible Plants are common in the diet of rural communities of sub-Saharan Africa. In Guinea-Bissau, West Africa, wild plant resources are widely used in human diet, but very few studies have addressed them. The aim of this study is to reveal: (1) the wild and semi-cultivated leafy vegetables consumed in Guinea-Bissau; and (2) the nutritional composition of those plants traded at the largest country market i...

Implementation of security services for vehicular communications
Duarte, Daniel; Silva, Luis; Fernandes, Bruno; Alam, Muhammad; Ferreira, JoaquimOver the last years, there has been a considerable development in the field of vehicular communications (VC) so as to satisfy the requirements of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). Standards such as IEEE 802.11p and ETSI ITS-G5 enable the so called Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs). Vehicles can exploit VANETs to exchange information, such as alerts and awareness information, so as to improve road safet...
