IMMERSIVE VIRTUAL REALITY: AN ANALYSIS OF INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN BASED ON AECT GU...
Santos, Daniel; Castelhano, Maria; Pedrosa, Daniela; Morgado, LeonelWith the evolution of Virtual Reality (VR), it is recommended that educators and instructional designers rethink their approaches to maximize the educational benefits of immersive environments. Instructional Design (ID) applied to VR with the use of headsets allows for reflection on educational strategies, user experience, and technological potential. Within the scope of the REVEALING – REalisation of Virtual r...
Composite SVR based modellingof an Industrial Furnace
Santos, Daniel; Rato, Luís; Gonçalves, Teresa; Barão, Miguel; Costa, Sérgio; Malico, Isabel; Canhoto, PauloIndustrial furnaces consume a large amount of energy and their operating points have a major influence on the quality of the final product. Designing a tool that analyzes the combustion process, fluid mechanics and heat transfer and assists the work done during energy audits is then of the most importance. This work proposes a hybrid model for such a tool, having as it base two white-box models, namely a detail...
Development of a reduced-order model of an industrial billet heating furnace
Alvarez, Frederico; Costa, Sérgio; Santos, Daniel; Canhoto, Paulo; Malico, Isabel; Rato, Luís; Gonçalves, Teresa; Barão, Miguel; Lima, Rui PedroThis work is part of the ongoing efforts under the Audit Furnace project to develop a reduced-order model (ROM) that allows for fast analysis of combustion, fluid flow and heat transfer processes that occur inside industrial furnaces. A billet heating furnace is considered here, which uses propane as fuel and processes circa 5000 kg of material per hour with a billet temperature set point at the exit of 745 ºC....
Factors That Influence the Type of Road Traffic Accidents: A Case Study in a Di...
Infante, Paulo; Jacinto, Gonçalo; Afonso, Anabela; Rego, Leonor; Nogueira, Pedro; Silva, Marcelo; Nogueira, Vitor; Saias, José; Quaresma, PauloRoad traffic accidents (RTAs) are a problem with repercussions in several dimensions: social, economic, health, justice, and security. Data science plays an important role in its explanation and prediction. One of the main objectives of RTA data analysis is to identify the main factors associated with a RTA. The present study aims to contribute to the identification of the determinants for the type of RTA: coll...

Comparison of Statistical and Machine Learning Models on Road Traffic Accident ...
infante, paulo; Jacinto, Gonçalo; Afonso, Anabela; Rego, Leonor; Nogueira, Vitor; Quaresma, Paulo; Saias, José; Santos, Daniel; Nogueira, PedroPortugal has the sixth highest road fatality rate among European Union members. This is a problem of different dimensions with serious consequences in people’s lives. This study analyses daily data from police and government authorities on road traffic accidents that occurred between 2016 and 2019 in a district of Portugal. This paper looks for the determinants that contribute to the existence of victims in roa...
Some determinants for road accidents severity in the district of Setúbal
Infante, Paulo; Afonso, Anabela; Jacinto, Gonçalo; Rego, Leonor; Nogueira, Pedro; Silva, Marcelo; Nogueira, Vitor; Saias, José; Quaresma, PauloIn Portugal, the district of Setúbal is among those with the higher number of road accidents with fatal injuries but with fewer accidents. This work analyzes data from road accidents that occurred in the area under the jurisdiction of the Territorial Command of Setúbal, belonging to the Guarda Nacional Republicana, the Portuguese Gendarmerie. A spatial analysis of the accidents was carried out, using the Getis–...

Machine Learning Approaches to Traffic Accident Analysis and Hotspot Prediction
Santos, Daniel; Saias, José; Quaresma, Paulo; Nogueira, VitorTraffic accidents are one of the most important concerns of the world, since they result in numerous casualties, injuries, and fatalities each year, as well as significant economic losses. There are many factors that are responsible for causing road accidents. If these factors can be better understood and predicted, it might be possible to take measures to mitigate the damages and its severity. The purpose of t...
