- Tourism and motorhome: reflections on its importance for local developmentPublication . Nunes, Paulo; Tomás, João; Santos, Fernando Jorge Lourenço DosTourism as a social phenomenon crosses the history of humanity, despite its recent organization and study. It presents a constant evolution over time through processes and models resulting from the improvement of transport, the increase of new and potential experiences, new products and services, as well as new environments, making these factors increasingly critical when choice of a tourist destination. Its landmark was a tour to Leicester organized for 570 people by Thomas Cook (1841), which was the first large-scale trip. Currently, motorhomes are a type of tourism, which can be processed with free overnight parking, that is, in any non-prohibited location, or in places especially suitable for this purpose, including camping sites. It has been developing in Europe since the 1960s, especially at the beginning of the decade, with the adaptation of vans, both artisanal and industrial. The main objective of this article is to carry out a critical reflection on self-catering in the perspective of assessing its importance for local development, in its social and economic dimension. It will explain the relationship between tourism and motorhome, as well as its social implications as a global phenomenon. It is considered pertinent the need to establish the theoretical debate on selfdriving, taking into account the indispensability of delimiting the field of analysis of scientific investigations that have this activity as an object of study, due to the media interest and economic dimension it contains.

- Accuracy of Hidden Markov Models in Identifying Alterations in Movement Patterns during Biceps-Curl Weight-Lifting ExercisePublication . Peres, André B.; Espada, Mário; Santos, Fernando Jorge Lourenço Dos; Robalo, Ricardo A. M.; Dias, Amândio A. P.; Muñoz-Jiménez, Jesus; Sancassani, Andrei; Massini, Danilo A.; Filho, Dalton M. PessôaThis paper presents a comparison of mathematical and cinematic motion analysis regarding the accuracy of the detection of alterations in the patterns of positional sequence during biceps-curl lifting exercise. Two different methods, one with and one without metric data from the environment, were used to identify the changes. Ten volunteers performed a standing biceps-curl exercise with additional loads. A smartphone recorded their movements in the sagittal plane, providing information on joints and barbell sequential position changes during each lift attempt. An analysis of variance revealed significant differences in joint position (p < 0.05) among executions with three different loads. Hidden Markov models were trained with data from the bi-dimensional coordinates of the joint positional sequence to identify meaningful alteration with load increment. Tests of agreement tests between the results provided by the models with the environmental measurements, as well as those from image coordinates, were performed. The results demonstrated that it is possible to efficiently detect changes in the patterns of positional sequence with and without the necessity of measurement and/or environmental control, reaching an agreement of 86% between each other, and 100% and 86% for each respective method to the results of ANOVA. The method developed in this study illustrates the viability of smartphone camera use for identifying positional adjustments due to the inability to control limbs in an adequate range of motion with increasing load during a lifting task.
- A motivação para prática de actividades desportivas em praticantes federados de basquetebol e atletismoPublication . Morgado, Tiago; Freire, Diogo; Nunes, Paulo; Figueiredo, Teresa; Figueira, A; Pereira, A; Santos, Fernando Jorge Lourenço Dos; Espada, MárioO presente estudo pretende estudar a motivação para a prática de atividade despor-tivas em praticantes federados de basquetebol e atletismo.A amostra foi constituída por 81 jovens praticantes (n=35 de basquetebol e n=46 de atletismo). O instrumento utilizado para a recolha dos dados foi o Questionário de Motivação para as Ativida-des Desportivas (QMAD). A análise de dados foi feita através da estatística descri-tiva. Os resultados demonstram que os atletas inquiridos centram as suas motivações no trabalho em equipa(afiliação específica), fazer coisas em que se é bom(estatuto), ser reconhecido e ter prestígio (estatuto),entrar em competição (competição)e des-carregar energias(emoções). De acordo com os resultados, podemos concluir que uma vez que os atletas são federados, foi visível uma maior motivação extrínseca, estando mais orientada para o ego.
