Abstract

Lichens, organisms resulting from a symbiosis between a fungus and an algae, are frequently used as age estimators, especially in recent geological deposits and archaeological structures, using the correlation between lichen size and age. Current non-automated manual lichen and measurement (with ruler, calipers or using digital image processing tools) is a time-consuming and laborious process, especially when the number of samples is high. This work presents a workflow and set of image acquisition and processing tools developed to efficiently identify lichen thalli in flat rocky surfaces, and to produce relevant lichen size statistics (percentage cover, number of thalli, their area and perimeter). The developed workflow uses a regular digital camera for image capture along with specially designed targets to allow for automatic image correction and scale assignment. After this step, lichen identification is done in a flow comprising assisted image segmentation and classification based on interactive foreground extraction tool (GrabCut) and automatic classification of images using Simple Linear Iterative Clustering (SLIC) for image segmentation and Support Vector Machines (SV) and Random Forest classifiers. Initial evaluation shows promising results. The manual classification of images (for training) using GrabCut show an average speedup of 4 if compared with currently used techniques and presents an average precision of 95\%. The automatic classification using SLIC and SVM with default parameters produces results with average precision higher than 70\%. The developed system is flexible and allows a considerable reduction of processing time, the workflow allows it applicability to data sets of new lichen populations.

11. Fostering Professional Competencies in Engineering Undergraduates with EPS@ISEP

Author

Malheiro, Benedita, Guedes, Pedro, Silva, Manuel F., and Ferreira, Paulo

Abstract

Engineering education addresses the development of professional competencies in undergraduates. In this context, the core set of professional competencies includes critical thinking and problem solving, effective communication, collaboration and team building, and creativity and innovation--also known as the four Cs--as well as socio-professional ethics and sustainable development--referred in this paper as the two Ss. While the four Cs were identified by the associates of the American Management Association based on the needs of the society, professional associations, and businesses; this paper proposes the two S extension to ensure that future engineers contribute to the well-being of individuals and the preservation of life on Earth. It proposes a tangible framework--the 4C2S--and an application method to analyse the contributions made by engineering capstone programmes to the development of these core competencies in future engineering professionals. The method is applied to an engineering capstone programme--the European Project Semester (EPS) offered by the Instituto Superior de Engenharia do Porto (ISEP)--and a specific project case--EPS@ISEP Pet Tracker project developed in 2013, constituting, in addition, a road map for the application of the 4C2S framework to engineering capstone programmes. The results show that EPS@ISEP complies with the 4C2S framework.

22. Engineering Education for Sustainable Development: The European Project Semester Approach

Author

Duarte, Abel J., Malheiro, Benedita, Arnó, Elisabet, Perat, Ignasi, Silva, Manuel F., Fuentes-Durá, Pedro, Guedes, Pedro, and Ferreira, Paulo

Abstract

Contribution: An analysis of the extent to which sustainability is present in the syllabi, project briefs, report templates, and student final reports of the three Iberian European project semester (EPS) providers, over a five-year period. Background: EPS is a one-semester capstone project framework that adopts project-based learning and multicultural, multidisciplinary teamwork. Educating engineers for sustainable development requires fostering critical and ethical thinking and a desire for equity, solidarity and preservation of natural resources, and cultural and genetic diversity. Existing engineering capstone design programs emphasize solving real world problems, hands-on training, and soft skills, but few focus on sustainability aspects of engineering design. The three Iberian EPS providers adopt project-based learning and teamwork methodologies, promoting the development of transversal skills and addressing sustainability in a multicultural and multidisciplinary background. Intended Outcomes: To show that the three Iberian EPS providers follow these recommendations and contribute to raising students' awareness of sustainable development. Application Design: The proposed sustainability learning assessment method collects evidence from syllabi, project briefs, report templates, and final reports to extract faculty and student perspectives. The sustainability-related terms collected were processed into word cloud format, allowing a simple and intuitive interpretation of students' understanding of sustainability, and in co-occurrence network format, to understand if sustainability has a pervasive or confined presence within the reports. Findings: Iberian EPS faculty and students are aware of the social, economic, and environmental impact of their projects, in terms of quality of life, social responsibility, the use of resources, and environmentally friendly technology.

33. Learning Sustainability by Developing a Solar Dryer for Microalgae Retrieval

Author

Malheiro, Benedita, Ribeiro, Cristina, Silva, Manuel F., Caetano, Nídia, Paulo Ferreira, and Guedes, Pedro

Abstract

The development of nations depends on energy consumption, which is generally based on fossil fuels. This dependency produces irreversible and dramatic effects on the environment, e.g. large greenhouse gas emissions, which in turn cause global warming and climate changes, responsible for the rise of the sea level, floods, and other extreme weather events. Transportation is one of the main uses of energy, and its excessive fossil fuel dependency is driving the search for alternative and sustainable sources of energy such as microalgae, from which biodiesel, among other useful compounds, can be obtained. The process includes harvesting and drying, two energy consuming steps, which are, therefore, expensive and unsustainable. The goal of this EPS@ISEP Spring 2013 project was to develop a solar microalgae dryer for the microalgae laboratory of ISEP. A multinational team of five students from distinct fields of study was responsible for designing and building the solar microalgae dryer prototype. The prototype includes a control system to ensure that the microalgae are not destroyed during the drying process. The solar microalgae dryer works as a distiller, extracting the excess water from the microalgae suspension. This paper details the design steps, the building technologies, the ethical and sustainable concerns and compares the prototype with existing solutions. The proposed sustainable microalgae drying process is competitive as far as energy usage is concerned. Finally, the project contributed to increase the deontological ethics, social compromise skills and sustainable development awareness of the students.

34. Developing an Aquaponics System to Learn Sustainability and Social Compromise Skills

Author

Duarte, Abel J., Malheiro, Benedita, Ribeiro, Cristina, Silva, Manuel F., Ferreira, Paulo, and Guedes, Pedro

Abstract

The goal of this project, one of the proposals of the EPS@ISEP Spring 2014, was to develop an Aquaponics System. Over recent years Aquaponics systems have received increased attention since they contribute to reduce the strain on resources within 1st and 3rd world countries. Aquaponics is the combination of Hydroponics and Aquaculture, mimicking a natural environment in order to successfully apply and enhance the understanding of natural cycles within an indoor process. Using this knowledge of natural cycles, it was possible to create a system with capabilities similar to that of a natural environment with the support of electronics, enhancing the overall efficiency of the system. The multinational team involved in the development of this system was composed of five students from five countries and fields of study. This paper describes their solution, including the overall design, the technology involved and the benefits it can bring to the current market. The team was able to design and render the Computer Aided Design (CAD) drawings of the prototype, assemble all components, successfully test the electronics and comply with the budget. Furthermore, the designed solution was supported by a product sustainability study and included a specific marketing plan. Last but not least, the students enrolled in this project obtained new multidisciplinary knowledge and increased their team work and cross-cultural communication skills.

Abstract

Summary: Oocyte cytoplasmic evaluation is based on homogeneity and granular appearance. Our study investigated if a granular cytoplasm, highly heterogeneous, would affect oocyte competence in bovine. In two experiments, bovine cumulus–oocyte complexes (COCs) with homogeneous cytoplasm (control, CC) and granulated cytoplasm (granular, GC) were selected from a regular pool of COCs. Experiment 1 was performed with slaughterhouse ovaries, and Experiment 2 was carried out in Girolando COCs obtained from ovum pick-up. Granular oocytes had higher caspase 3 levels (66.17 ± 11.61 vs 172.08 ± 16.95, P < 0.01) and similar GAP junction activity (5.64 ± 0.45 vs 6.29 ± 0.29). ZAR1 relative mRNA amount was lower in granular oocytes (178.27 ± 151.63 vs 0.89 ± 0.89, P = 0.01) and no effect was detected for MATER , PPP2R1A , ENY2 , IGF2R , and BMP15 genes. Despite molecular differences, no detrimental effect was detected on oocyte competence in GC oocytes. Cleavage (Experiment 1: 59.52 ± 7.21% vs 59.79 ± 6.10% and Experiment 2: 68.88 ± 4.82 vs 74.41 ± 5.89%) and blastocyst (Experiment 1: 29.28 ± 4.14% vs 23.15 ± 2.96% and Experiment 2: 21.11 ± 3.28% vs 21.02 ± 6.08%) rates were similar between CC and GC (Experiments 1 and 2, respectively). Post-transfer embryo development revealed that pregnancy (CC: 24.27 ± 9.70% vs GC: 26.31 ± 7.23%) and calving (23.68% vs 33.33%) rates and fetal growth were not affected by the presence of cytoplasmic granules. Our results demonstrated that oocytes with granular cytoplasm present equivalent efficiency for IVF and calf production compared with homogenous cytoplasm oocytes. This could be observed through similar cleavage, blastocyst rates, and fetal growth development. In addition to differences in oocyte gene expression related to oocyte quality, it seems not to affect oocyte developmental competence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
