Manuel Melle Franco, CICECO – Aveiro Institute of Materials (University of Aveiro) We can no longer imagine life without polymers. Products made of polymers are all around us, ranging from clothing made from synthetic fibres to plastic lenses in glasses. Polymers are formed when small molecules called monomers are linked together to form long chains. […]
Paula Rodrigues – INESCTEC Project name: Developing Low and Zero Carbon Solutions using NetMIX technologies Project description: The CoLAB Net4CO2 is focused on the development of different solutions for low and zero-carbon energy systems, helping different industries to reach carbon neutrality by 2050 and meet the targets defined in the Paris agreement. Three main strategic […]
@MoreiraLAB www.moreiralab.com Our project, VIRUSHOSTAI – DSAIPA/DS/0118/2020, is a good example of the advantage of using High Performance Computing as it involves dynamic simulations of proteins as well the most recent algorithms of deep-learning. We are following a network-based approach to predict new links between virus and their hosts, essential towards the establishment of a […]

Topics: Polymer Processing, Computational Rheology, Industrial Process Simulation In our daily life polymeric based soft materials play an indispensable role, being present in a wide variety of products such as clothes, toothbrushes, car components, plastic hangers, toys, paint, etc. Due to their complex structure, their behavior induces complex, sometimes counter intuitive, phenomena, which are difficult […]
Despite the strong promises of the task-based paradigm, as adopted in parallel programming models such as OpenMP and OmpSs, its effective advantages are far from being well understood when applied to the non-trivial programs that comprise real-world HPC applications. In the context of the EPEEC project, a recent collaboration between INESC-ID and BSC (Barcelona Supercomputer […]
The partnership was signed after the development of the CARM technology. INESC-ID from Instituto Superior Técnico collaborates with Intel© since researchers Aleksandar Ilic, Leonel Sousa, and Frederico Pratas developed the fundamental Cache-Aware Roofline (CARM) models, which allow taking advantage of several processor features. For example, it helps to visualize the processing limit, thus helping optimize […]
Jorge AlmeidaProAction Lab http://proactionlab.fpce.uc.pt/ Faculdade de Psicologia e Ciências da Educação da Universidade de Coimbra Our ability to recognise an object amongst many others is one of the essential human mind features. Understanding how the human brain organises information about things and how that organisation allows us to quickly identify those same objects is the […]
(Author: J. F. Caseiro, P. Alberto) Technological Center for Mouldmaking Special Tooling and Plastic Industries (CENTIMFE), Marinha-Grande, PortugalLaboratory for Advanced Computing – University of Coimbra, Coimbra, Portugal Description/Scientific objectives and goals: With the evolution of vehicular motorization, and in particular the use of electric motors, the noise related to the working engine has been significantly reduced.

(Author: António Maria de Afonseca Portela Roseira Muralha, LNEC) Description/ Scientific objectives and goals: Dams over the world involve very specific features, namely in what concerns the hydraulic safety appurtenances such as the spillways. Spillways generate high velocity water flows, a particular case being water free jets strongly impacting rocky river beds downstream. The flow […]
