Evaluation birepresentations of affine type a soergel bimodules

Mackaay, Marco; Miemietz, Vanessa; Vaz, Pedro

In this paper, we use Soergel calculus to define a monoidal functor, called the evaluation functor, from extended affine type A Soergel bimodules to the homotopy category of bounded complexes in finite type A Soergel bimodules. This functor categorifies the well-known evaluation homomorphism from the extended affine type A Hecke algebra to the finite type A Hecke algebra. Through it, one can pull back the trian...


Dry pathways and flowing water within culverts jointly promote crossings by car...

Craveiro, João; Benardino, Joana; Mira, António; Vaz, Pedro

Roads are linear infrastructures causing high wildlife mortality. Transportation administrations make large investments on mitigation measures to promote safe road crossings by wildlife. Yet, many roads worldwide rely on culverts as the only passages available for fauna even though they were primarily designed to drain water. Indeed, culverts inundate repeatedly, becoming unavailable to most terrestrial fauna d...

Purpose: Out-of-field doses are given to healthy tissues, which may allow the development of second tumors. The use of IMRT in pediatric patients has been discussed, as it leads to a "bath" of low doses to large volumes of out-of-field organs and tissues. This study aims to compare out-of-field doses in pediatric patients comparing IMRT and 3DCRT techniques using measurements, Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, and ...

Vaz, Pedro; Braga, A. C.; Carvalho, Maria Sameiro; Menezes, Gerardo

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the influence of several industrial operating conditions in the occurrence of the defect (air bubbles) in a wet bonding process of two pieces (a glass and an electronic display). The study of the influence of operating conditions in business targets is of great interest to the community of process engineers, to ensure the long-term stability of the process, as thi...


Undaria pinnatifida (U. pinnatifida) bioactivity: Antioxidant, gastro-intestina...

Pedro, Bernardo; Guedes, Laura; André, Rebeca; Gaspar, Helena; Vaz, Pedro; Ascensão, Lia; Melo, Ricardo; Serralheiro, Maria Luisa

Undaria pinnatifida is a brown alga, largely used as food in oriental countries. The purpose of this work was to analyze several bioactivities that might be present in different food preparations, relating them with the compounds present in the extracts. Aqueous extracts cooked, like a soup, as well as used in a salad, by simulating U. pinnatifida digestion with pancreatin were prepared. The soup preparation ha...

Impact of culvert flooding on carnivore crossings

Craveiro, João; Bernardino, Joana; Mira, António; Vaz, Pedro

Along many roads worldwide, drainage culverts are the only structures wildlife can safely use to cross. However, culverts inundate and can become unavailable to terrestrial fauna during rainy periods. We conducted a field study over wet and dry seasons in southern Portugal to assess the effect of culvert flooding on crossings by medium-sized carnivores. We set up track stations inside 30 culverts along intermed...

Domingues, Ines; Vaz, Pedro; Moreira, Rui; Infante, Paulo; Conceição, Cristina

MILK RECORDING: MONITORING TOOL FOR GREATER DAIRY FARMS EFFICIENCY – MILK UREA ABSTRACT: The interpretation of milk metabolites from milk recording, can be a possible nutritional and management tool for dairy farmers. Some nutrient imbalances and environment impact of farms can be diagnosed by milk urea nitrogen (MUN) concentration in milk. A generalized linear mixed regression model (GLMM) was constructed to d...

Sá, Ana Cravo; Barateiro, Andreia; Bednarz, Bryan; Borges, Cecília; Pereira, Joana; Baptista, Mariana; Pereira, Miguel; Zarza-Moreno, Miriam

Purpose: To assess out-of-field doses in radiotherapy treatments of pediatric patients, using Monte Carlo methods to implement a new model of the linear accelerator validated against measurements and developing a voxelized anthropomorphic pediatric phantom. Methods: CT images of a physical anthropomorphic pediatric phantom were acquired and dosimetric planning using a TPS was obtained. The CT images were used t...
