Imagined climate futures and collective action: An analysis of affect in dystop...
Santos, T. R.; Rebelo, D.; Garcia, A.; Fernandes-Jesus, M.; Malafaia, C.; Carvalho, A.In recent climate mobilisations, young people have emerged as key leaders, organisers, and influencers of social change. This article examines how utopias and dystopias, embedded in affective-discursive practices, are articulated by young climate activists to support their engagement in collective action. We analysed discourse from four focus group discussions and two pair interviews with young climate activist...
Intersectionality in youth climate activism as educational practice: Political,...
Garcia, A.; Rebelo, D.; Diógenes-Lima, J.; Fernandes-Jesus, M.; Malafaia, C.Youth climate movements have increasingly adopted an intersectional approach to activism, highlighting how diverse social categories (inter alia, race, gender, social class, sexuality) intersect with power structures and systems of oppression. This article explores the educational value of practices of intersectionality as they unfold in activists’ everyday lives, both within the climate movement and in its rel...
Advances in printing and electronics: from engagement to commitment
Martins, Pedro Libânio Abreu; Pereira, N.; Lima, A. C.; Garcia, A.; Mendes-Filipe, C.; Polícia, R.; Correia, V.; Lanceros-Mendez, S.In recent years, printed electronics reached enormous popularity as a result of their huge potential to offer unique features that are not attainable through traditional fabrication, namely low-cost production, multifunctionality, stretchability, sustainability, and flexibility. Being expected a galloping increase in the use of printed technologies in the near future, due to the digitalization efforts associate...

Abbott, B. P.; Abbott, R.; Abbott, T. D.; Abernathy, M. R.; Acernese, F.; Ackley, K.; Adams, C.; Adams, T.; Addesso, P.; Adhikari, R. X.; Adya, V. B.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-29T07:48:20Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2016-06-20; Science and Technology Facilities Council; We present an archival search for transient gravitational-wave bursts in coincidence with 27 single-pulse triggers from Green Bank Telescope pulsar surveys, using the LIGO, Virgo, and GEO interferometer network. We also discuss a check for gravitational-wave si...
Processing strategies to obtain highly porous silk fibroin structures with tail...
Reizabal, A.; Costa, Carlos Miguel Silva; Saiz, P. G.; Gonzalez, B.; Pérez-Álvarez, L.; Fernández de Luis, R.; Garcia, A.; Vilas-Vilela, J. L.The present work reports on the control of silk fibroin (SF) porous structures performance through various processing methods. The study includes the analysis of two dissolving techniques (CaCl2/H2O/EtOH ternary and LiBr/H2O binary solutions), three regeneration methods (gelation, lyophilization and gas foaming) and one post-processing (EtOH). In all the cases, followed steps lead to SF structures with porosity...
Flexural testing and analysis of fullstrain-fields in sandwich composites.
Marat-Mendes, R.; Martins, R.; Garcia, A.; Reis, L.The objective of this work was to characterize the full-field flexural behavior of composite sandwich beams. Finite element analysis was used to estimate the behavior of sandwich beams under three- and four-point-bending tests and were compared with experimental results obtained via digital image correlation and strain-gauges. Two different polyurethane core thicknesses and two different sandwich lengths were u...
Cellular-to-Dendritic and Dendritic-to-Cellular Morphological Transitions in a ...
Brito, C. [UNESP]; Nguyen-Thi, H.; Mangelinck-Noël, N.; Cheung, N.; Spinelli, J. E.; Garcia, A.Made available in DSpace on 2019-10-06T15:47:44Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2019-06-17; The study is focused on the influence of solidification thermal parameters upon the evolution of the microstructure (either cells or dendrites) of an Al-3wt%Mg-1wt%Si ternary alloy. It is well known that the application properties of metallic alloys will greatly depend on the final morphology of the mic...
Perspectives of health care providers in Portugal on the provision of care to m...
Tavares, A.; Garcia, A.; Abecasis, A.; Viveiros, M.; Dias, S.Introduction: Migrants’ access to and use of health care often plays an important role in their vulnerability to infectious diseases, namely tuberculosis and HIV. Despite the increasing efforts of health systems, some difficulties in prevention and treatment remain. Studies of the provision of care to migrants with TB or HIV-TB are still scarce. This study aims to analyse the providers’ perspectives on the prov...
