Augmented Reality in Engineering

This work discusses the applicability of the augmented reality technology as a tool for learning/teaching and its role in engineering training. Online Experimentation Resources at the Faculty of Engineering of University of Porto permits and fosters contact with technologies that are used currently in industry, medicine, development, services and research by providing remote, virtual and augmented reality experiments. The available resources are diverse and they offer an “all-purpose” structure in order to be easily adapted and so, allowing the teacher to frame it according the resource applicability perspective in the context of his/her course curriculum. In this context some augmented reality applications had been used by engineering students to familiarize them with this type of tools based in emerging technology that can be playing an important role in later students’ labor environment. To evaluate the reaction of students to the contact with this kind of technology a twenty four items questionnaire was prepared, filled by students and evaluated. Finally, the results were analyzed and briefly reported here.

Experimental training in engineering

Technology based and hands-on experimental activities in engineering are currently under way in a joint venture involving Portuguese and Brazilian higher education institutions, whose goals include sharing of resources and instructor experiences in using alternative ways of implementing experimental training in engineering, as well as investigating the reaction of students with different cultural and knowledge backgrounds to the use of the hands-on and on-line experimentation modalities. The workflow of the collaboration is presented, the methodology of the research discussed and some preliminary results are shown.

Flavour structure of the nucleon electromagnetic form factors and transverse charge densities in the chiral quark-soliton model

We investigate the flavour decomposition of the electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon, based on the chiral quark-soliton model (

In order to see the effects of the strange quark, we compare the SU(3) results with those of SU(2). We finally discuss the transverse charge densities for both unpolarised and polarised nucleons. The transverse charge density inside a neutron turns out to be negative in the vicinity of the centre within the SU(3)
