DISSEMINATION

During the project period, several dissemination actions were carried out, despite the constraints imposed by the ongoing pandemic situation. Articles were published in national and international journals and presented at conferences, both at the national and international levels, to communicate the achieved results to the technical and scientific community.

At the end of the project, an online seminar was conducted, which had a significant number of participants.
