Comparing digital tools for implementing a generative system for the design of customized tableware (2019)
Journal Article
Castro e Costa, E., Jorge, J., & Duarte, J. (2019). Comparing digital tools for implementing a generative system for the design of customized tableware. Computer-Aided Design and Applications, 16(5), 803-821. https://doi.org/10.14733/cadaps.2019.803-821

In typical mass customization design processes, designers encode design processes into configurators that are subsequently used by end-users to customize products. Using the case study of ceramic tableware, we explore how to extend the role of design...

An evaluation of the effectiveness of face-to-face versus e-learning in the UAE Civil Defence sector (2019)
Thesis
Almarzooqi, J. M. H. Y. An evaluation of the effectiveness of face-to-face versus e-learning in the UAE Civil Defence sector. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/853714

In the UAE, e-Learning has been adopted as a new learning mode to increase awareness and standards of building fire safety of it civil defence workforce. Training in this sector has been mainly based around traditional classroom approaches. This rese...

A nonequilibrium-potential approach to competition in neural populations (2019)
Journal Article
Deza, R. R., Deza, I., Martínez, N., Mejías, J. F., & Wio, H. S. (2019). A nonequilibrium-potential approach to competition in neural populations. Frontiers in Physics, 6(154), https://doi.org/10.3389/fphy.2018.00154

Energy landscapes are a highly useful aid for the understanding of dynamical systems, and a particularly valuable tool for their analysis. For a broad class of rate neural- network models of relevance in neuroscience, we derive a global Lyapunov func...

A method for the ecological use of vegetation in the built environment (2019)
Journal Article
Sibilla, M., & Barbati, A. (2019). A method for the ecological use of vegetation in the built environment. Sustainable Mediterranean Construction, 2019(N9), 79-85

Urban reforestation is recognised as a valid strategy to counter the loss of functionalities of the ecosystem services in an urban context, where vegetation has the dual role of environmental and landscape qualitative indicator. Ecological studies ha... Read More about A method for the ecological use of vegetation in the built environment.
