The interaction between land use and transportation infrastructure is a topic that has been extensively researched and continues to be of interest as new underlying economic, infrastructure and environmental conditions emerge. In this research, the direct ...
Chlorinated ethenes (CEs), such as perchloroethene (PCE) and trichloroethene (TCE), are one of the most common class of groundwater contaminants. Aquifers are considered nowadays as dynamic ecosystems, showing multiple interactions between the physical, ch ...
Many efforts have been undertaken in past decades to minimize pollution from municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWI FA). This residue is toxic, because of its high concentration of heavy metals, mainly Pb and Zn. A new method for heavy metals ent ...
An original concept is presented for the durable rehabilitation of concrete bridge deck slabs. The main idea is to add a layer of Ultra-High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) with steel reinforcing bars over the concrete slab to create a compo ...
Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) comprise a heterogeneous group of membrane lipids formed by a ceramide backbone covalently linked to a glycan moiety. Hundreds of different glycans can be linked to tens of different ceramide molecules, giving rise to an astonishi ...
As environmental awareness grows, firms are expected to expand the scope of their environmental strategies beyond organisational boundaries and to address more comprehensively environmental issues in their supply chains and product life cycles. Drawing on ...
The objective of this contribution is to show architecture as a major factor of development of the mountain environment against both environmental and human risks caused by the severe overcrowding of the routes leading to the main Alpine summits. The choic ...
The main topic of this presentation is the justification of the interview protocol developed in my doctoral research, a research that studies the collective representations of what a just space is, for the city-society of the Metropolitan Area of Porto. Th ...
Plant effects on soil biota can result in feedbacks affecting plant performance, with consequences for plant community and ecosystem dynamics on short and long time-scales. In addition, the strength and direction of plant-soil feedbacks depend on tempor ...
An original concept is presented for the durable rehabilitation and strengthening of concrete structures. The main idea is to use ultra-high performance fibre reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) complemented with steel reinforcing bars to protect and strengthen t ...
