Questionable research practices in engineering research
Baptista, Ana Alice; Pereira, FilipeMisconduct in science is often associated with data fabrication, data falsification, and plagiarism. However, other practices are far more frequent and prevalent. Questionable Research Practices (QRPs) are in the grey area between misconduct and responsible research conduct. The goal of this study was to investigate estimated and self-admission prevalence of engineering researchers' engagement in QRPs. We appli...
Exploring nursing assessment, diagnoses, goals, interventions and outcomes in f...
César Santos, Bruna; Bastos, Fernanda; Pereira, Filipe; Campos, Maria JoanaIntroduction: Families are a fundamental context for health, influencing care needs, decisionmaking, and health outcomes across the life course. In nursing, the family may be approached as context and/or as a unit of care; however, the conceptualization and operationalization of family nursing care planning remains inconsistent across clinical settings. Existing evidence suggests variability in how nurses asses...
Vision inspection design for systematic production of needle beds: an industria...
Freitas, Luis; Malheiro, M. Teresa; Gonçalves, A. Manuela; Vicente, José; Pereira, Filipe; Morais, Francisco; Bessa, João; Machado, JoséThe increasingly standards of the electronic industry, especially in Printed Circuit Boards, make In-Circuit-Test Machines one of the most important systems on the production lines. With this, the pressure on the In-Circuit-Test Machines production to meet this strict requirements it is getting bigger every day. To react to this pressure it is necessary to update, in a technological point of view, the manufactu...
Hyperthermic Intrathoracic Chemotherapy. A new weapon has been deployed in Port...
Barata, Catarina; Ferreira, Ricardo; Draiblate, Beatriz; Pereira, Filipe; Brysch, Eva; Nobre, ÂngeloThymoma is a relatively rare tumour, being, nonetheless, the most frequent neoplasm of the anterior mediastinum. Radical surgery is the gold-standard in every stage, with a considerable recurrence rate in locally advanced tumours. Complete resection in recurrences occurs only in a few cases. A new therapeutic strategy has emerged: the Hyperthermic Intrathoracic Chemotherapy (HITHOC), a high concentrated dose of...
Online yarn hairiness– Loop & protruding fibers dataset
Pereira, Filipe; Pinto, Leandro; Soares, Filomena; Vasconcelos, Rosa; Machado, José; Carvalho, VítorThis paper introduces an online dataset focused on detect- ing hairiness in yarn, including loop and protruding fibers. The dataset is designed for use in assessing artificial intelli- gence algorithms. The dataset consists of 684 original images. Through augmentation, this number increases to 1644, with 11,037 annotations derived from videos featuring 56.4tex pur- ple cotton yarn. The videos were captured duri...
Nursing process related to the nursing focus “airway clearance”: a scoping review
Gaspar, Luís; Reis, Neuza; Sousa, Paula; Silva, Abel Paiva e; Cardoso, Alexandrina; Brito, Alice; Bastos, Fernanda; Campos, Joana; Parente, PauloBackground: Airway clearance impairment has a significant impact on self-care and quality of life. Identifying clinical data, nursing diagnoses, and nursing interventions is essential to clinical reasoning and enhancing nursing care. This study aims to map the existing evidence on clinical data, nursing diagnoses, and nursing interventions addressing the nursing focus on “airway clearance”. Methods: Research wa...
An Energy Storage System for the Alto Douro Wind Power Plant: A Technical Study
Magalhães, Alexandre; Xavier, Celso; Felgueiras, Carlos; Pereira, Filipe; Almeida Santos, Adriano Manuel; da Silva, A. Ferreira; Silva, PauloRenewable energies are crucial to meeting global demand for environmentally friendly energy at a time when fossil fuels are being cut back. In recent years, and essentially due to the reduced reserves of fossil fuels, Portugal has been promoting investment in renewable energies as a way of freeing itself from energy imports and dependence on fossil fuels. However, despite the high number of hours of sunshine pe...
Energy Policies, Education and Sustainable Development Goals Applied to Low Dev...
Martins, Florinda; Silva, Paulo; Felgueiras, Carlos; Almeida Santos, Adriano Manuel; Pereira, Filipe; Caetano, NídiaEnergy, its use and management, weighs heavily on the burden that each society can impose on a fragile balance of nature, with implications not only environmental and financial, but also social, creating jobs and improving quality of life. Devising strategies that combine these three factors are a valuable option that will yield good results, meeting the challenge of fulfilling the Sustainable Development Goals...
