An ontology-based web platform for medical care on transatlantic cruises
Baptista, Hugo; Peixoto, Hugo; Gomes, Luis; Machado, José ManuelTransatlantic cruises in the northern Atlantic often face medical situations requiring specialized care unavailable onboard, necessitating patient transfers to onshore facilities. The Portuguese archipelago of the Azores, strategically located along their routes, frequently receives such vessels. Currently, ship-to-shore communication relies on email, which is prone to errors and raises data security and privac...

Using petri nets for analysis of navigation paths in constrained graphs – appli...
Gomes, Luis; Ribeiro-Gomes, José; Barros, João PauloIn many areas of application, graphs have been used to support path planning addressing navigation challenges in dynamic environments. Applications target very diverse areas, ranging from manufacturing and robotics to video games, including georeferencing applications in our daily lives considering real-time traffic conditions. This paper focuses on applications where navigation through a predefined map consist...

DEVICE AND PROCESS FOR MASSIVE CAPTURE OF OLIVE FLIES - ELECTROCUTOR TRAP
Rei, Fernando; Gomes, Luis; Andrade, Leonardo; Tlemçani, Mouhaydine; Peça, José; Dias, AntónioThe present invention relates to the develop- ment of a device for capturing flying insects, in particular the olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae), for biological control of this olive grove pest. [0002] This device is autonomous and active in oper- ation and comprises a substantially cylindrically shaped outer body, as well as a fan and an insect-trapping mech- anism both placed inside such outer body, whereby ...
Functional evolution in total knee arthroplasty: first and second-generation pa...
Fontes, Ana Paula; CINTRA, RUI; Gomes, Luis; João Paulo SousaBackground: This study compares the functional evolution between the first- and second-generation patient-specific instrumentation and conventional instrumentation pre-surgery and the third month post-surgery after TKA. We analyzed the functional outcomes achieved and the absolute gains of each study variable. In addition, we aimed to elucidate the results of the three surgical techniques regarding the surgery ...

Fontes, Ana Paula; Cintra, Rui Miguel; Gomes, Luis; Sousa, Joao PauloBackground: The aim of the study was to analyze and compare the accuracy, efficiency and functional evolution between the first- and second-generation Patient-specific instrumentation (PSI). Methods: We report our experience in TKA using PSI Visionaire System® (Smith and Nephew®) in 456 procedures. The patients were divided into first- (N=272) and second-generation PSI design (N=184). For the accuracy was analy...
Evaluation Metrics to Assess the Most Suitable Energy Community End-Users to Pa...
Barreto, Rúben; Goncalves, Calvin; Gomes, Luis; Faria, Pedro; Vale, ZitaIn the energy sector, prosumers are becoming relevant entities for energy management systems since they can share energy with their citizen energy community (CEC). Thus, this paper proposes a novel methodology based on demand response (DR) participation in a CEC context, where unsupervised learning algorithms such as convolutional neural networks and k-means are used. This novel methodology can analyze future e...
