Collaboration with other researchers from other universities and different R & D Centres in the University of Minho lead to the following research programs and publications.

 

Separation/reaction in SMB application to the production of industrial sugars from low-cost biomass sources (POCTI/EQU/32470/2000)

 

   

Innovativeness and Network Competence: an integration and empirical examination

 

   

Thermal Comfort model applicable to clothing design(POCTI/EME/62786/2004)


Main goals

Model development of transport of energy and mass through porous hygroscopic clothing materials. Integrate this model with an existing human-thermal comfort model. Comparison and validation of numerical results with experimental work. Subjective evaluation of human thermal comfort and statistical analysis.
