This paper describes a usability evaluation of some aspects of the University of Aveiro new Web Portal (www.ua.pt) performed by students of an introductory course on Human-Computer Interaction offered at the University, during the academic year of 2006/2007.This evaluation was based on heuristic evaluation, observation methods and a short questionaire applyed to users with different profiles. The methods and ma...
The paper presents the results of the project proposed to the authors (who are the 4th year students of LECT) and shows how the specified problem has been solved. The description of the project and the basic requirements have been considered in the papers [1,2]. ; Este artigo apresenta os resultados do projecto proposto aos autores (alunos do 4.º ano da LECT) e explica como o...
Harvesting the power of modern graphics hardware to solve the complex problem of real-time rendering of large unstructured meshes is a major research goal in the volume visualization community. While, for regular grids, texture-based techniques are well-suited for current GPUs, the steps necessary for rendering unstructured meshes are not so easily mapped to current hardware. We propose a novel volume rendering...
Marching Cubes is a popular choice for isosurface extraction from regular grids due to its simplicity, robustness, and efficiency. One of the key shortcomings of this approach is the quality of the resulting meshes, which tend to have many poorly shaped and degenerate triangles. This issue is often addressed through postprocessing operations such as smoothing. As we demonstrate in experiments with several data ...
Marching Cubes is the most popular isosurface extraction algorithm due to its simplicity, efficiency and robustness. It has been widely studied, improved, and extended. While much early work was concerned with efficiency and correctness issues, lately there has been a push to improve the quality of Marching Cubes meshes so that they can be used in computational codes. In this work we present a new classificatio...
A visualização volumétrica de grandes malhas não estruturadas é uma das principais metas da comunidade de visualização científica. Enquanto que em grades regulares o uso de técnicas baseadas em textura são adequadas para as Unidades de Processamento Gráfico (GPUs) atuais, os passos necessários para exibir malhas não estruturas não são diretamente mapeadas para o hardware atual. Este artigo revisa algoritmos e t...
The use of detailed geometric models is a critical factor for achieving realism in most computer graphics applications. In the past few years, we have observed an increasing demand for faithful representations of real scenes, primarily driven by applications whose goal is to create extremely realistic experiences by building virtual replicas of real environments. Potential uses of this technology include entert...
Minimilhos obtidos das cultivares de milho Vivi, híbrido simples de endosperma doce em fase experimental, e AG 1051, híbrido duplo comercial, comum, foram revestidos com cobertura comestível de fécula de mandioca a 2 e 4% e armazenados a 5 ºC. Um tratamento controle, sem revestimento, foi utilizado nas mesmas condições. Foram realizadas análises físico-químicas a cada três dias, durante nove dias, e de perda de...
OBJETIVO: Conduziu-se este estudo prospectivo a fim de avaliar-se a influência do uso da braçadeira sobre o acúmulo de coágulos dentro dos drenos pleurais. MÉTODO: Os drenos pleurais foram pesados logo após sua retirada, lavados e secados e pesados novamente. A diferença entre a primeira e a segunda pesagem foi admitida como a quantidade de coágulos acumulada. RESULTADOS: Houve maior acúmulo de coágulo nos dren...
