Ao fim de 16 anos continuamos a intervir, semestralmente, na área científica da Engenharia Eletrotécnica, com a publicação de vários artigos técnicos e científicos que procuram ser uma mais valia na resolução de problemas nesta vertente da Engenharia, mas também uma forma de apoio aos estudantes e a todos os profissionais de Engenharia Eletrotécnica.
- Engenharia Remota e Instrumentação VirtualPublication . García-Zubía, Javier; Alves, Gustavo R.A 9ª edição da conferência internacional sobre Engenharia Remota e Instrumentação Virtual (REV), realizada na Universidade de Deusto, Bilbao, Espanha, de 4 a 6 de Julho de 2012, permitiu reunir um conjunto notável de investigadores, de primeira linha, a nível mundial, na temática dos laboratórios remotos e virtuais. A publicação de três artigos selecionados da conferência, da autoria de investigadores ibero-americanos, na revista IEEE- RITA, surge como uma prova de que esta comunidade tem procurado manter-se ao nível do que melhor se faz em termos de ferramentas tecnológicas de apoio ao ensino experimental de Ciência, Tecnologia, Engenharia e Matemática.
- Foreword to the special section on Recent Advances in Graphics and Interaction (RAGI 2023)Publication . Sá, Vítor J.; Marto, Anabela; Silva, Paula Alexandra; Chalmers, Alan; Sá, Vítor J.This special section on Recent Advances in Graphics and Interaction features the papers submitted to Computers & Graphics and presented at the 2023 edition of the International Conference on Graphics and Interaction (ICGI’2023), which was held on November 2 and 3, 2023 at Tomar, as a joint organization between the Polytechnic University of Tomar and the Eurographics Portuguese Chapter (GPCG). The ICGI conference focuses on novel ideas in the areas of Computer Graphics, Image Processing, Computer Vision, Information Visualization, and Human-Computer Interaction, as well as related fields such as Virtual and Augmented Reality, Modelling, Rendering, Digital Arts, and Information Visualisation. The conference further aims to bring together and inspire collaboration among practitioners, users, and researchers. This special issue of Computers & Graphics received sixteen submissions, nine of which were accepted for publication after they had been fully peer-reviewed by at least three experts, according to the standards of Computers & Graphics.
- Healthy and safe environments across occupational and environmental contexts: A holistic perspectivePublication . Carvalhais, Carlos; Pereira, Cristiana C.; Santos, JoanaAccording to the World Health Organization (WHO), “good health depends on clean air, a stable climate, and a preserved natural environment, as well as access to adequate water, sanitation, and hygiene. It also requires protection from harmful radiation, unsafe chemical management, and unhealthy working conditions. A healthy environment could prevent nearly a quarter of the global disease burden”. In line with this, environmental health is defined as the science that “addresses all the physical, chemical, and biological factors external to a person, and all the related factors impacting behaviors. It encompasses the assessment and control of those environmental factors that can potentially affect health. It is targeted towards preventing disease and creating health-supportive environments”.
