Optimal air quality policies and health: a multi-objective nonlinear approach
No full textThe use of modelling tools to support decision-makers to plan air quality policies is now quite widespread in Europe. In this paper, the Regional Integrated Assessment Tool (RIAT+), which was designed to support policy-maker decision on optimal emission reduction measures to improve air quality at minimum costs, is applied to the Porto Urban Area (Portugal). In addition to technological measures, some local measures were included in the optimization process. Case study results are presented for a multi-objective approach focused on both NO2 and PM10 control measures, assuming equivalent importance in the optimization process. The optimal set of air quality measures is capable to reduce simultaneously the annual average concentrations values of PM10 and NO2 in 1.7 and 1.0 μg/m3, respectively. This paper illustrates how the tool could be used to prioritize policy objectives and help making informed decisions about reducing air pollution and improving public health

No full textrikz2004015.pdf betreft het hoofdrapport. Een uitgebreide samenvatting is gegeven in rikz2004.015s.pdf. Dit rapport is de weergave van een verkenning naar multifunctioneel ruimtegebruik in de zeewering, aan de hand van de situatie in Den Helder (zogenaamde Combikering Den Helder). Het grootste deel van het project heeft plaatsgevonden in opdracht van Directoraat Generaal Water van het Ministerie van Verkeer en Waterstaat. Daarnaast leverde het programma \u93Water als Innovatiebron\u94 financiën, om het innovatief karakter van het project extra te kunnen benutten. Dit heeft onder meer geleid tot een aantal creatieve schetsen en tot het inventariseren van enkele andere voorbeelden van meervoudig ruimtegebruik in Nederlandse primaire waterkeringen

Sloop in de Falgabuurt?: Hoe verloedering en kleine criminaliteit leidden tot het besluit deze buurt in Den Helder te slopen
No full textDe Falgabuurt is een wijk in Den Helder, gebouwd in de jaren vijftig. Kenmerkend voor deze wijk is het grote aantal flatblokken van vier bouwlagen: deels ontsloten via portieken, deels via galerijen. Met name in deze laatste groep flatblokken ontstonden in de jaren 70 de eerste problemen. Deze problemen werden zo ernstig, dat reeds in 1976 werd aangekondigd de flats op termijn te slopen. Een jaar later zag men daar echter van af, hetgeen niet betekende dat de problemen verdwenen waren. Deze namen daarentegen alleen maar toe. Problemen waar men mee te kampen had, waren enerzijds van technische en stedebouwkundige en anderzijds van meer sociale aard. Leefbaarheidsproblemen zoals vandalisme, verpaupering, criminaliteit en concentratie van drugsgebruikers zorgden ervoor dat de Falgabuurt een uiterst slechte naam kreeg binnen de Helderse woningmarkt. Na een tiental jaren van onzekerheid omtrent de toekomst van de buurt, nam Woningstichting Den Helder in 1986 een 'helder' besluit: 11 van de 13 flatblokken zouden binnen een periode van 8 à 12 jaar worden gesloopt. Tot die tijd wordt de buurt leefbaar gehouden door middel van een opknapbeurt van de woningen en door een reeks van 'maatregelen gericht op het leefmilieu. Het sloopbesluit heeft echter grote protesten bij bewoners opgeroepen. Deze wensen duidelijkheid op korte termijn. Een nieuwe 'definitieve' beslissing over de toekomst van de buurt zal in 1989 genomen worden.OTB Research Institute for the Built Environmen

Helder Macedo e Jacques Offenbach: As múltiplas narrativas
No full textO sexto romance de Helder Macedo, Tão Longo Amor, Tão Curta a Vida, lançado em Lisboa no início de 2013 apresenta, como sempre, personagens femininas fortes e marcantes. Lenia, cuja história será dividida entre dois narradores, assume facetas diferentes e aparentemente contraditórias à medida que a história avança. O autor, notório espectador de óperas, criou uma protagonista que se assemelha à Olympia/ Giulietta/Antonia de “Os contos de Hoffmann”, opera de Jacques Offenbach estreada em 1881. Estudar tais semelhanças resulta numa iluminação de importantes aspectos do romance macediano. Helder Macedo's sixth novel, Tão Logo Amor, Tão Curta a Vida, published in february 2013 in Lisbon, brings, as usual, strong female characters.

The author, an opera lover, created a main character that resembles Olympia/Giulietta/Antonia from Jacques Offenbach's 1881 opera "The tales of Hoffmann", studying the similitudes amog them illuminates important aspects of Macedo's novel.
Infinito e segredo nas poéticas da combinação de Melo e Castro e de Herberto Helder / Infinite and Secret in the Poetics of Combination of Melo e Castro and Herberto Helder
No full textResumo: A partir da colaboração entre Melo e Castro e Herberto Helder na direção do segundo número da revista PO.EX, de 1966, o texto propõe um diálogo entre os dois poetas quanto ao uso do método cibernético da combinação em suas poéticas. Toma-se inicialmente o contexto do pós-guerra, quando o método combinatório passa a ser chave de criação para os poetas. No fim do texto, chega-se à contemporaneidade, quando a tecnologia algorítmica parece controlar e conduzir destinos político-culturais. Nesse percurso, articulam-se algumas semelhanças e diferenças entre os usos da combinação pelos dois poetas, permitindo-nos pensar algumas contradições históricas na imbricação entre discurso poético e tecnologia, sendo infinito e segredo os elementos potencialmente políticos que as poéticas de Melo e Castro e Herberto Helder desenvolvem em suas combinações.Palavras-chave: infinito, segredo, combinação, Herberto Helder, Melo e Castro.Abstract: Based on the collaboration between Melo e Castro and Herberto Helder for the second issue of the PO.EX magazine, from 1966, the article proposes a dialogue between the two poets regarding the use of the cybernetic method of combination in their poetics.

In the conclusion, it reaches contemporary times, when algorithmic technology seems to control and drive political-cultural goals. Throughout the article, the author approaches some similarities and differences between the uses of the combination by the poets, enabling us to think some historical contradictions in the connection between poetic discourse and technology. This leads infinite and secret as potentially political elements in the Melo e Castro and Herberto Helder’s poetics of combination.Keywords: infinite, secret, combination, Herberto Helder, Melo e Castro
