The increasing ubiquitousness of digital information in our daily lives has positioned video as a favored information vehicle, and given rise to an astonishing generation of social media and surveillance footage. This raises a series of technological demands for automatic video understanding and management, which together with the compromising attentional limitations of human operators, have motivated the resea...
O género Acácia inclui numerosas espécies, algumas economicamente importantes, que ocorrem naturalmente em zonas áridas na Austrália, Ásia, África e América. Em Portugal espécies destes género foram introduzidas no início do século XX, em solos secos e arenosos ao longo da costa. A Acacia melanoxylon apesar de bem adaptada às condições ecológicas do país, não tem sido aproveitada, em parte devido ao desconhecim...
Neste trabalho desenvolveu-se um modelo para estimar a densidade básica na madeira da Acacia melanoxylon po NIR.
The procedure presented by Cabral et al. (2003) was used to predict the adsorption of multicomponent mixtures of methane, ethane, propane, and n-butane adsorbed on Silicalite S-115 at 300 K. The methodology employed uses the algorithm of molecular simulation for the grand canonical ensemble as an equation of state for the adsorbed phase. The adsorbent surface is modeled as a two-dimensional lattice in which sol...
The aim of this work is to report the experimental data and thermodynamic modeling of phase equilibrium of binary systems containing soybean and olive oils with propane and n-butane. Phase equilibrium experiments were carried out using the static synthetic method in a high-pressure variable-volume view cell in the temperature range from 30 to 70ºC and varying the solvent overall composition from 5 to 98 wt%. Va...
Phase equilibrium calculations for fluids confined inside capillary tubes or porous media are formulated using the isofugacity equations. In this situation, the phase pressures are not equal and it is assumed that they are related by the Laplace equation. With this formulation, existing procedures for phase equilibrium calculations can be readily modified to include capillary effects. In this paper, we review s...

There are numerous examples of the importance of small molecule migration in polymeric materials, such as in drying polymeric packing, controlled drug delivery, formation of films, and membrane separation, etc. The Chapman-Enskog kinetic theory of hard-sphere fluids with the Weeks-Chandler-Andersen effective hard-sphere diameter (Enskog-WCA) has been the most fruitful in diffusion studies of simple fluids and m...
