In a dramatic crisis context, Lisbon reveals itself as an attractive and dynamic city of alternative bustling creativity. Trying to understand this paradox, I analyse two successful “alternative cultural spaces”: Lx Factory and Pensão Amor. Urban strategie ...
This paper presents a systematic computational study on the performance of distributed optimization in model predictive control (MPC). We consider networks of dynamically coupled systems, which are subject to input and state con- straints. The resulting MP ...
This research aims at developing a hybrid choice model (HCM) where a perceptional variable is measured by means of adjectives reported by individuals. Due to the qualitative nature of adjectives, the main challenges of the study involve their quantificatio ...
Solid state diffusion is a very complex mechanism and, up until recent studies, such properties had mainly been conducted by macroscopic methods that do not yield true material properties. This has been a major problem for materials development regarding e ...
We propose in this talk to address the issue and effect of linearization in the quality of the error estimates in quantities of interest for strongly nonlinear problems. It is well known that the error representation in this case can be decomposed into two ...

We introduce a novel and general approach for digitalization of line segments in the plane that satisfies a set of axioms naturally arising from Euclidean axioms. In particular, we show how to derive such a system of digital segments from any total order o ...

In a paper published earlier this year, Finn Hirslund suggested to release degassed deepwater from methane harvesting to the surface layer of Lake Kiwi in order to counteract an observed slow rising of the chemoclines in the lake. In this comment, we prese ...
Improving living conditions of the poor often involves a drastic change in lifestyle, in order to fit daily life into industrially produced dwellings. Slum rehabilitation programs replacing informal settlements with standardized mass housing, have often re ...
Second-harmonic generation (SHG) from centrosymmetric nanostructures originating from the breaking of inversion symmetry at their surfaces is a well-known phenomenon and is extensively used as a surface probe in nonlinear optical microscopy. In recent year ...
