Mosquitoes-borne diseases Dengue Fever, Zika, Yellow Fever and Chikungunya represent major public health issues in Brazil and in the world. In the last few years it has become increasingly obvious the impact of mosquitoes-borne diseases as major cause of mortality in human population. In the last few years many mathematical models have been developed to describe the dynamics of the diseas…

Lately, a new modality of biological control for arbovirus diseases has taken on risenprominence: the field releases of Wolbachia-infected mosquitoes. The most attractive features of this endosymbiont bacteria are the ability to block arbovirus transmission and keep the infection among individuals of later generations, which make the arbovirus control effective and environmentally friendl…
The idea for the optimized planning of radiotherapy is to achieve three goals: to maximize the amount of radiation to the tumor in order to eliminate it, not to exceed the pre-set dose to critical tissues and not exceed the prescribed dose to healthy tissue. Thus, this research project aims to multiobjective optimization techniques for assistance in determining optimal plans for cancer tr…
It is known that Brazil is the world largest sugarcane producer. But there is a great concern about the crop system of this culture, because the most common practice is the manual harvest with previous burning of the straw. But, this procedure is condemned by many organizations of society due to pollution. Then Brazilian authorities have approved a law prohibiting the burning of sugarcane…

Currently over 80% of global energy comes from fossil fuels. But, the trend is that nuclear energy, fossil fuels and biomass will be abandoned in next four decades due to scarcity of sources. Will require the use of the solar, wind, ocean, hydropower and geothermal energy. The demand by renewable energy could be 95%. But the energy planning is no easy task due to its multi-objective chara…
