Evaluation of MSW incineration bottom ash for environmentally safe geotechnical...
Bandarra, B. S.; Monteiro, L. R.; Veloso, G; Abreu, P.; Sousa, H.; Martins, R. C.; Pereira, J. L.; Coelho, P. A. L. F.; Quina, Margarida J.Circular economy envisages resource efficiency and minimization of the negative impacts of waste on the environment and human health. This work considers municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash (IBA) for safe use in geotechnical works, through physical, chemical, ecotoxicological, and geotechnical analysis of samples with different weathering periods. Low leaching potential and no relevant ecotoxic effect...

Keßler, S.; Limongelli, M. P.; Apostolidi, E.; Andrade, C.; Bartolac, M.; Braml, T.; Cigada, A.; Duprat, F.; Gentile, C.; Kainz, C.; Küttenbaum, S.[Excerpt] The through-life management of our constantly ageing infrastructure is a basic requirement in order to ensure their structural safety and serviceability. Each structure experiences deterioration processes with time leading to a decrease of structural safety and serviceability. The design of new structures considers the expected deterioration for a defined period, the design service life. However, a fr...

Biofilm formation under high shear stress increases resilience to chemical and ...
Simões, Lúcia Chaves; Gomes, I. B.; Sousa, H.; Borges, A.; Simões, M.The effect that the hydrodynamic conditions under which biofilms are formed has on their persistence is still unknown. This study assessed the behaviour of Pseudomonas fluorescens biofilms, formed on stainless steel under different shear stress (sw) conditions (1, 2 and 4 Pa), to chemical (benzalkonium chloride – BAC, glutaraldehyde – GLUT and sodium hypochlorite – SHC) and mechanical (20 Pa) treatments (alone ...
Effects of changing the head coach on soccer team’s performance: a systematic r...
Sousa, H.; Clemente, F. M.; Gouveia, E. R.; Field, Adam; Sarmento, H.Review question / Objective: The aim of this systematic review is to analyze the effects of changing the soccer head coach on the overall team’s performance, locomotor demands of players, technical/tactical responses of players, and psychological responses of players. Eligibility criteria: P: Among professional soccer players what is the effect of head-coach replacement; E: Exposure to the change of the head-co...

O Freixo Duarte de Armas: a história e recuperação da árvore
Martins, L. M.; Silva, C. A.; Sousa, H.; Mariano, Alexandra de Brito; Madeira, S.; Sintra, A. P.; Leal, F.; Ferreira-Cardoso, J.; Duarte, J.; Pinto, T.O Freixo (Fraxinus angustifolia Vahl.) com mais de 550 a que se refere esta comunicação, localiza-se na área histórica de Freixo de Espada à Cinta (FEC). A árvore e FEC confundem-se devido ao nome e à longevidade de ambos, embora a localidade seja bem mais velha, sendo até mais antiga que a fundação de Portugal independente. Na verdade, a história do agora chamado Freixo Duarte de Armas (Fd’A) só se inicia com ...
Stepwise API usage assistance using n-gram language models
Santos, A. L.; Prendi, G.; Sousa, H.; Ribeiro, R.Reusing software involves learning third-party APIs, a process that is often time-consuming and error-prone. Recommendation systems for API usage assistance based on statistical models built from source code corpora are capable of assisting API users through code completion mechanisms in IDEs. A valid sequence of API calls involving different types may be regarded as a well-formed sentence of tokens from the AP...
Exploring APIs with N-gram language models
Prendi, G.; Sousa, H.; Santos, A. L.; Ribeiro, R.Software development requires the use of external Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) in order to reuse libraries and frameworks. Programmers often struggle with unfamiliar APIs. Such difficulties often lead to an incorrect sequence of API calls that may not produce the desired outcome. Language models have shown the ability to capture regularities in text as well as in code. In this paper we explore the ...
