O impacto psicológico da pandemia COVID-19 nos profissionais de emergência [EPH...

Com o início da Pandemia COVID-19,decretado pela OMS a 11.3.2020, os profissionais de Emergência Pré-Hospitalar (EPH) passaram a enfrentar novos desafios, riscos acrescidos e imprevisíveis, com impacto na sua saúde física e mental. Durante os períodos sem pandemia,os estudos sugerem que os primeiros respondentes e profissionais de saúde já enfrentam um risco elevado de problemas de saúde mental, incluindo esgot...

Neural gliding and neural tensioning differently impact flexibility, heat and p...

Objective: To compare the effect of neural gliding and tensioning on hamstring flexibility, nerve function (heat and cold thresholds) and pain sensitivity (pain intensity and pressure pain threshold) of the mobilized and non-mobilized lower limbs at post-intervention and 24 h follow up. Design: Randomized, parallel and double blinded trial. Setting/participants: Forty-eight asymptomatic participants. Interventi...

Cities in citizens' hands

We propose a new paradigm for public participation in urban planning, a field which presents significant challenges for public understanding and participation. Our approach is based on leveraging the rich diversity of meaning associated with cultural gestures, traditions, folklore, and rituals, and using them in augmented reality systems, in order for citizens’ to explore, understand, and communicate the comple...

Two roofs of recent public buildings, the same technological failure

The main objective of this research work is to present two case studies of recently constructed public buildings in Portugal which have faced problems in the roof system. Both buildings were constructed in 2004 and are located in the north of Portugal. One is a swimming pool and the other is a multi-use pavilion. They have as main roof structural elements glued laminated timber (glulam) arches and beams, respec...

A wireless sensor network platform for structural health monitoring: enabling a...

Structural health monitoring has long been identified as a prominent application of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), as traditional wired-based solutions present some inherent limitations such as installation/maintenance cost, scalability and visual impact. Nevertheless, there is a lack of ready-to-use and off-the-shelf WSN technologies that are able to fulfill some most demanding requirements of these applicat...

Operational modal monitoring of ancient structures using wireless technology

Operational Modal Analysis is currently applied in structural dynamic monitoring studies using conventional wired based sensors and data acquisition platforms. This approach, however, becomes inadequate in cases where the tests are performed in ancient structures with esthetic concerns or in others, where the use of wires greatly impacts the monitoring system cost and creates difficulties in the maintenance and...
