This paper describes the 2D physical model tests performed for a rock armour breakwater at LNEC´s facilities, under the framework of the HYDRALAB+ project. The aim of the present work was to evaluate damage evolution under ...

This paper analyses the hydrodynamic interaction between two ships, one stationary and the other navigating nearby, using physical and numerical modelling. The passing ship is a self-propelled scale model of the “Aurora” ...

This paper describes the preliminary developments of an innovative integrated tool for the numerical modelling of oscillating water column (OWC) wave energy converters (WEC) integrated in vertical breakwaters. The main ...

Rainwater harvesting is being gradually valued as a result of the increased need for water conservation and the search for more sustainable solutions in the use of resources. This practice has several environmental and ...

Os compostos farmacêuticos são contaminantes de interesse emergente que, caso não sejam removidos das águas residuais, podem ter impactos ambientais e para a saúde pública imprevisíveis, prejudicando a preservação de origens ...

Neste relatório inicial são apresentadas a arquitetura e as caraterísticas gerais dos protótipos do sistema de previsão, alerta e gestão de riscos causados pela agitação marítima para os portos de Madalena do Pico, São ...

Está em curso uma transformação no papel desempenhado pelas estações de tratamento de águas residuais, no sentido de incluir objetivos como a redução da emissão de gases com efeito de estufa e a promoção da recuperação de ...

Pharmaceutical compounds (PhCs) are concerning the regulators and the general public because very little is known about their long-term and synergistic health-environmental effects. As some of these compounds are resistant ...

"The presence of emerging contaminants (ECs) in drinking water and treated wastewaters is a recent raising concern in water and wastewater treatment plants (WTPs and WWTPs), as some compounds were already implied in risk ...

"Pharmaceutical compounds (PhCs) are emerging contaminants of environmental-health concern that, if not controlled, could adversely affect drinking water sources and water reuse projects, two key issues of sustainable water ...
