Diary as a Tool to Mitigate Post-Traumatic Stress in Intensive Care Patients: A...
Araújo, Cristina; Alves, Tiago; Araújo, Isabel; Fernandes, Filipe; Araújo , Cristiana; Alves, Tiago; Araújo , Isabel; Fernandes , FilipeIntroduction: The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) environment may sometimes contribute to the development of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in critically ill patients. The use of ICU Diaries has been proposed as a promising tool to mitigate these effects and enhance patients’ emotional recovery. Objective: To analyse recent scientific literature on the impact of ICU Diaries as a tool to mitigate PTSD, identify...
Bridging Regional Divides in Decarbonization: Firm Strategies, Policy Tensions,...
Vale, Mário; Alves, Tiago; Fontes, Margarida; Mamede, Ricardo; Bento, NunoABSTRACT: The transition to a low-carbon economy is shaped by structural tensions and trade-offs that impact firms, regions, and policymakers. A central challenge is balancing regional equity, industrial specialization, and technological innovation in decarbonization policies (Markard & Rosenbloom, 2022). This study critically examines these tensions by analysing firm-level decarbonization strategies within the...
Decarbonization Transition Pathways and Regional Trends: Insights from One Mill...
Bento, Nuno; Alves, Tiago; Ribeiro, Ricardo; Fontes, MargaridaABSTRACT: As global temperatures near critical thresholds and emissions continue to rise, the urgency for strategic, accelerated decarbonization grows. Despite a vast climate mitigation literature, a systematic understanding of actionable pathways remains limited. Here, we apply artificial intelligence to analyze over one million scientific papers (2011–2021), generating a data-driven typology of six archetypal...
Frontiers of the past in the digital world: multidisciplinary collaboration in ...
Cuesta-Gómez, Fabián; Trindade, Luísa; Silva, Gonçalo Melo da; Alves, Tiago; Filipe, João; Lacet, Demetrius; Morgado, Leonel; Prata, SaraThe virtual reconstitution of Castelo de Vide, Portugal, within the FRONTOWNS project, highlights the challenges and successes of multidisciplinary collaboration in heritage preservation through 3D modeling. The goal was to reconstruct the town’s urban evolution, focusing on its role as a border settlement from the 13th to 16th centuries. The project combined archaeological evidence, historical sources, and dig...
Typology of pathways for decarbonization [Resumo]
Bento, Nuno; Alves, Tiago; Ribeiro, Ricardo; Fontes, MargaridaABSTRACT: Addressing the urgent climate change requires a clear knowledge of the options available, as well as an understanding of the possible strategies to reduce carbon emissions. Identifying realistic pathways for decarbonization is crucial to inform agents’ decisions about the relevant measures (Turnheim & Nykvist, 2018), with unawareness of these pathways often delaying climate action (Bergek et al, 2023)...
Laboratorial Simulation for Assessing the Performance of Slates as Construction...
Sitzia, Fabio; Lisci, Carla; Pires, Vera; Alves, Tiago; Mirão, joséThis paper presents the results of a laboratory simulation of a subarctic climate carried out in climatic chamber. Realistic daily and seasonal cycles of temperature of a regular subarctic continental climate without dry seasons (Dfc) were simulated and the physical/mechanical properties and performance of the slates were assessed. The slate was selected because of its use as cladding and roofing material in co...
Wet and dry conditions influence on natural stone cladding performance with dow...
Pires, Vera; Sitzia, Fabio; Lisci, Carla; Jose, Mirao; Alves, Tiago; Faria, PaulaNatural stone cladding with dowel-pinned anchor systems are commonly used in building façades. Their loading behaviour and mechanical performance in wet and dry conditions is not fully understood, particularly the correlations between the pore structure and the anchorage breaking loads. To answer this concern, a series of breaking load tests on dowel-pinned anchors in both soaked and dry condition were carried ...
Critical transitions: Unpacking decarbonization strategies in Portuguese indust...
Vale, Mário; Alves, Tiago; Duarte de Castro Fontes, Maria Margarida; Mamede, Ricardo; Bento, NunoABSTRACT: In the wake of the Paris Agreement, the urgency for decarbonization has intensified globally, prompting varied responses from different regions and sectors. This study critically examines the uneven decarbonization trajectories of Portuguese firms within the framework of the Portugal 2020 (PT2020) program, informed by transition theory and regional innovation systems. Employing a multi-method approach...

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES FOR NATURAL STONE|INOVSTONE 4.0-IMPORTANT RESULTS FROM A ...
Pires, Vera; Mirao, Jose; Sitzia, Fabio; Lisci, Carla; Duarte, José; Dias, Luis; Alves, Tiago; Lopes, Luis; Martins, RubenThe natural stone as a building material has been revealed to have much lower life cycle costs than other materials as concrete, glass and steel. For this reason, it has a positive impact on the environment. However, several incidents with different pathologies on distinct lithologies has led to an increase in maintenance costs. The lack of knowledge on a stone performance over time and the frequent absence of ...
