Publication type: Book - Conference proceedings Research Project: N.A. Abstract: Esta publicação resulta dos seminários de acompanhamento de tese do Programa de Doutoramento Arquitetura dos Territórios Metropolitanos Contemporâneos do ISCTE- IUL. Candidatos com múltiplos perfis, oriundos de escolas nacionais e estrangeiras, têm transportado para o ISCTE- IUL as sua visões sobre o território, filtradas pelos desígnios do metropolitanismo e do tempo presente. Estas visões têm permitido lançar projectos de investigação, desenvolvidos através do cruzamento disciplinar da arquitetura e de áreas afins, como o planeamento e o desenvolvimento urbano, a arquitetura paisagista e a arte.

(2017) Food-pics-PT: Portuguese validation of food images in 10 subjective evaluative dimensions, Food Quality and Preference, 61, DOI: 10.1016/j.foodqual.2017.04.015: 15-25. Research Group: Governance, Economy and Citizenry Date: 2017 Publisher: Food Quality and Preference Link: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0950329317301003 Publication type: Scientific journal article. Research Project: N.A. Abstract: This work presents subjective ratings for a sub-set of 210 food images selected from food-pics (Blechert, Meule, Busch, & Ohla, 2014). Our main goals were to provide further validation to this database, using a sample from a different nationality (N = 307 Portuguese volunteers, M = 34.67 years old, SD = 13.49) and to extend the number of subjective dimensions used to evaluate each image. In an online survey, each stimulus was evaluated by a minimum of 30 participants regarding arousal, familiarity, valence, liking, frequency of consumption, caloric content, healthiness, tastiness, desire to eat and perceived level of transformation. Ratings in these dimensions were compared according to caloric density (low vs. high caloric density), degree of processing (whole vs. processed food), and gustatory quality (sweet vs. savory), as well as food category (beverages, cereals, fruits, proteins, sweets, vegetables and meals). Overall, our results were consistent with those reported in the original database, although some cross-cultural differences were observed. Descriptive data for each stimulus across evaluative dimensions (means, standard deviations, and confidence intervals) is available as Supplementary material at https://osf.io/av6he/. The validation of standardized food images is useful for several research domains (e.g., food perception; eating behavior) and interventions with normative and clinical populations.

Pedro Lemos Cordeiro Research Group: Cities and Territories Supervisor(s): José Luís Saldanha Summary In this work, the Project of «Restoration of Gorongosa National Park» is taken as an example of the relevancy of the architect’s role in human territorial interventions and as a privileged player in improving the interrelations of the various areas of knowledge that take part in the transformation of the landscape, whether cultural or «natural». Taking into account the need of an overall interpretation of the data of a given territory and the multifarious wishes of its actors, the architect applies the basic requirements of its discipline as a natural result of his allembracing field of knowledge. Thus, by isolating the most relevant themes in the process of the restoration and conservation of the Gorongosa National Park, the architect takes the first step towards the sinergetic planning of the actions in hand, giving primacy to the ecological balance between the culture and its social sustainability. The result is a comprehensive research which conveys a methodological hypothesis for an overall understanding of the issue, with its own virtues and shortcomings, as well as an «architectural» proposal, constructed by means of a disciplinary network, aiming for an enduring full equilibrium Period: 2011 - 2013 Resources: http://hdl.handle.net/10071/10466

(2017), Extreme Cold Conditions Architecture - An Antarctica's Shelter Prototype, Kine[SiS]tem - From Nature to Architectural Matter, Lisboa, JUL 19-30, 2017. Date: 2017 Publisher: Kine[SiS]tem - From Nature to Architectural Matter Link: https://ciencia.iscte-iul.pt/publications/extreme-cold-conditions-architecture---an-antarcticas-shelter-prototype/37793 Publication type: Publication in conference proceedings Research Project: N.A. Abstract: Nowadays, when performing expeditions to the most remote places in Antarctica, scientists typically use tents as shelters. These tents, albeit being very portable and easy to assemble, lack the structural stability to withstand the harsh conditions of the Antarctic environment. Therefore, this paper pursues to conceive a novel shelter prototype that, more adequately, protects and lodges the researchers in their scientific missions in this icy continent, all the while maintaining a focus on portability and sustainability. In a first stage, some facts about the Antarctic continent are presented, likewise its significance to Science and our species. Secondly, a mobile base, inspired by a yurt, conceived within the framework of POLAR LODGE (a subproject of the Portuguese Polar Program), is analysed. The paper then focuses on a brief review on aerodynamics, seeking to comprehend the interaction of shapes and air flow, so that the design performance requirements related to strong winds are better understood. Finally, in a second stage, based on the previous researches, two different paradigms of a portable base are exposed and the final prototype is conceived and presented alongside a brief discussion of its constitution, assembly methods, materials and techniques.
