Recommended Practices in Early Childhood Intervention – A Guidebook for profess...
Carvalho, L.; Almeida, I.C.; Felgueiras, I; Leitão, S.; Boavida, J.; Franco, V.This book includes up-to-date information and guidance needed by the early intervention community to build and strengthen practitioner’s capacity to work effectively with young children and their families. This guideline will strengthen an already model system of early intervention in Portugal and serve as model to other countries in Europe and elsewhere.
A covariant constituent-quark formalism for mesons
Leitão, S.; Stadler, A.; Peña, M. T.; Biernat, E. P.Using the framework of the Covariant Spectator Theory (CST), we are developing a covariant model formulated in Minkowski space to study mesonic structure and spectra. Treating mesons as effective qq ̄ states, we focused on the nonrelativistic bound-state problem in momentum space with a linear confining potential. Although integrable, this kernel has sin- gularities which are difficult to handle numerically. We...
Model of decentralized energy on improving the efficiency in building services
Galvão, João Rafael; Leitão, S.; Malheiro, S.; Gaio, T.The major objective of this work is to conceive a new energy process to improve energy efficiency on small buildings. This main goal will be accomplished through a new hybrid model for energy and environmental sustainability based on efficient technologies to reduce energy consumption, supported, particularly, in the gasification cogeneration technology in a context of decentralized energy production. In this p...
Microgeneration model in energy hybrid system - cogeneration and PV panels
Galvão, J.; Leitão, S.; Malheiro, S.; Gaio, T.This document reports the development of a hybrid and autonomous energy model with solar PV panels and a small CHP (combined heating and power production) system whose primary energy source is the biomass. Also it will be presented several rules for to achieve new energy efficiency levels of a service building. This energy model is also a new sustainable paradigm on energy consumption (electrical and thermal de...
Biofuel for the energy efficiency on a building with small CCHP
Galvão, João; Leitão, S.; Malheiro, S.; Gaio, T.This document reports the development of a technical and economical study related to the use of a renewable energy source - biomass for electricity and heat production. It is a hybrid and autonomous system with solar PV panels and environment friendly process aiming the reduction of energy demand, costs and emissions. This energy model is a new sustainable standard about efficiency consumption energy (electrica...
Predictable impact of lighting control on the energy consumption of a building ...
Bernardo, H.; Leitão, S.; Neves, L.; Amaral, P.; Bernardo, Hermano; Pires Neves, LuísBuilding energy simulation tools provide accurate predictions of the energetic performance of buildings and thermal comfort of its occupants, allowing an evaluation of the impact of proposed improvement measures, in order to support choice for the more economically viable. This paper aims at determining the energy saving potential that can be obtained by adequate measures and investments. It presents the simula...
