Adjustment of the models to males of mertolengo and Alentejano breeds. Development of estimation and of individualized prediction.

This platform consists in a creation of a computer application that is being updated and that will make available, in an organized and structured way, the knowledge produced by the institutions in the CIU3A's area of influence, in particular the University of Évora.

 

L.3. Outreach  activities - Knowledge Transfer

 

  1. Bushenkov.:

- Development of algorithms and methods for multi-objective optimization.

- Decision support systems for multi-objective forestry management in Portugal.

 

  1. Carapau.:

- In 2021, it was another year dedicated to the management of the Department, as he was Director of the Department of Mathematics. Even so, I continued my research in the field of fluid flow where I was involved as guest editor of two scientific books, to be published in 2022. I also participated in the publication of an article on Ulam Stabilities for a Class of Higher Order Integro-Differential Equations.

 

  1. Carapinha.:

- Conclusion and presentation of a Ph.D. Thesis project on "Nonlinear and Functional Higher Order Impulsive Problems.

- Conclusion of the investigation on “Functional Coupled Systems with Generalized Impulsive Conditions and Application to a SIRS-Type Model”, and publication of the respective article with the same title in the Journal of Function Spaces ( https://doi.org/10.1155/2021/3758274).

 

  1. Carlota.:

- Research on existence of solutions for nonconvex problems of the calculus of variations.

- Development of a powerful tool allowing to deal with positive parts and negative parts of L^1(a, b) functions.

- Development of a powerful tool to easily determine the sign of the Lebesgue integral of a product of two measurable real functions of real variable.

 

  1. Correia.:

Organisation and relaunching of my international cooperations (scientific collaboration and publications, projects, foreign academic advisement, schools, meetings and research groups) under my sabbatical leave (September 2021 – August 2022) in the following areas:

- Biomathematics:  Structured models of waterborne diseases;  Study of the transport phenomena via the phloem and the xylem in the cork oak.

- Coagulation-Fragmentation: Analysis of Smoluchowski type models by conservation laws.

- Conservation laws: Study of saturating dissipo-dispersive effects; Hyperbolic conservation laws regularisation analysis via complex singularities

 

  1. Correia.:

- The research in the field of application of Mathematics to fluid flows has been continued in particular in colaboration with other researchers having been published one paper.

 

  1. Minhós.:

- Solvability of coupled systems of Lidstone-type boundary value problems.

- Higher order functional discontinuous boundary value problems on the half-line.

- Heteroclinic and homoclinic solutions for nonlinear second-order coupled systems with phi-Laplacians.

- Functional coupled systems with generalized impulsive conditions with application to a SIRS model.

- Periodic third-order problems with a parameter.

 

  1. Ornelas.:

- Development of a powerful tool allowing to deal with positive parts and negative parts of L^1(a, b) functions.

- Development of a powerful tool to easily determine the sign of the Lebesgue integral of a product of two measurable real functions of real variable.

 

  1. Pereira.:

- Given a compact convex set F in Rn, with the origin in its interior, and a point on its boundary, near which it is given by an implicit equation, I got an easy formula to compute the curvature in the direction of any its tangent vector. Furthermore, I showed that when the directional curvature of F is positive, there is the directional derivative of the Minkowski functional of the polar set of F, and I proposed a formula to calculate it.

I prepared and submitted an article, and I reviewed another.

 

  1. Pires.:

- Study of stabilization algorithms for numerical simulations of viscoelastic fluids flow in problems known as the High Weissenberg Number Problem.

- It was develloped and test new temporal stress diffusion techniques that can avoid the unwanted artificial artifacts of the standard numerical stress stabilization.

- The numerical simulations have shown that these new temporal stress diffusion not only efficiently stabilizes numerical simulations, but also vanishes when the solution reaches a steady state.In contrast to the standard tensorial diffusion, the temporal artificial stress diffusion does not affect the final solution.

 

  1. de Sousa.:

In 2021 the object of my investigation was the study of solutions and their locations for coupled systems of nonlinear equations with boundary value of the Lidstone type, thadt is, with boundary conditions involving even-order derivatives. This investigation resulted in two published works:
- On Coupled Systems of Lidstone-Type Boundary Value Problems

- Existence and location of solutions to fourth-order Lidstone coupled systems with dependence on odd derivatives.

In parallel to these published works, also involving couped systems of nonlinear equations, heteroclinic and homoclinic solutions with asymptotic conditions were studied in another work:

- Heteroclinic and homoclinic solutions for nonlinear second-order coupled systems with ϕ-Laplacians.

- To define and axiomatically characterize (new) operators of change of theories that are the analogues, for belief contraction, of the (belief change) operators designated in the literature by selective revisions.

- To define and axiomatically characterize new belief change operators on belief bases.

- To define a formal language to represent a profile, and to adapt the belief revision models (in particular those that are applied to belief bases) to that language.
