In this project, a model interpreted by a differential equation system is developed to study two-innovation diffusion. We will examine stability, developing tendency, distribution, bifurcation and other properties of the system depending on different model parameters. We will also investigate the corresponding discrete forms of the system and compare the obtained results. Both approaches of […]

This project is developed to leverage 3D printing to fabricate personnel protective equipment and other products that can help us navigate the COVID 19 pandemic. 3D printing can be used to quickly fabricate a design idea, but it is a slow process, and there is some inherent porosity, so using this process to make masks […]

The SARS-CoV-2 virus is currently causing a pandemic that is overburdening the healthcare system and causing unprecedented economic disruptions on a global scale. A method called serological testing uses viral proteins to determine if the someone has been infected and has now become immune to the virus; however, it is currently very expensive to produce. […]

This investigation aims to discuss possible relationships between internal dynamics of different cocaine markets in Recife and uses of this information in drug policies implemented in the city. Understanding the configurational mechanisms that operate in different cocaine markets, their functionalities, dysfunctionalities and particularities is needed. Then, I must analyse how the existing policies considers the […]

The objective of this project is to compare and analyse the forms of non-state governance of violence in two poor communities in the southern region of Recife, Northeast Brazil. Although they are close to each other and have similar structural contexts, each of these communities has specific governance arrangements with disparate day-to-day consequences. The working […]

This project supports development of a laser-based sensor capable of accurately measuring methane releases from oil and gas wells, an important source of greenhouse gas emissions. This sensor will lead to a more accurate understanding of greenhouse gas emissions and enable mitigation actions in the upstream oil and gas industry. This is a critical step […]

With an aging population on the rise, the prevalence of cognitive decline is expected to increase substantially. Goal Management Training® (GMT) and the Memory and Aging Program® (MAP) are cognitive interventions that have been studied extensively and applied clinically to address these needs. Although previous research has demonstrated efficacy of the in-person versions of both […]

The problem of cancer chemotherapy is the severe toxic side effects on healthy tissues. The use of liposomes as a chemotherapeutic drug carrier can accumulate at the tumour site, but the timely release of the drug has remained as a problem. Liposome systems that respond to hyperthermal temperature is one of the approaches for triggered […]

This study will look at changes in the heart rate variability and electroencephalogram (EEG) signals in individuals receiving gut supplementation for depression. This is to see if the vagus nerve (a major nerve connecting your brain and gut) is affected by this therapeutic, and how that results in changes in your brain. This work will […]

A wide range of automated driving features now exist in modern vehicles, providing collision avoidance, lane keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, parking assist, etc. There are considerable concerns that drivers do not have an appropriate understanding of the system functionality, and are therefore either not using the features, or using them in an inappropriate (and […]

The legal profession, like many professions within the global economy, is undergoing significant change with advances in innovation and technologies and as geo-political and economic shifts are underway. As the only association representing the legal profession across the country, but also active in the global economy through various initiatives including international projects supported by partners […]
