Innovative Numerical Modelling in Geomechanics
Since the 1990s five books on ‘Applications of Computational Mechanics in Geotechnical Engineering’ have been published. Innovative Numerical Modelling in Geomechanics is the 6th and final book in this series, and contains papers written by leading experts on computational mechanics. The book treats highly relevant topics in the field of geotechnics, such as environmental geotechnics, open and underground excavations, foundations, embankments and rockfill dams, computational systems and oil geomechanics. Special attention is paid to risk in geotechnical engineering, and to recent developments in applying Bayesian networks and Data Mining techniques. Innovative Numerical Modelling in Geomechanics will be of interest to civil, mining and environmental engineers, as well as to engineering geologists. The book will also be useful for academics and researchers involved in geotechnics.
Analysis and Design of Geotechnical Structures
Analysis and design of geotechnical structures combines, in a single endeavor, a textbook to assist students in understanding the behavior of the main geotechnical works and a guide for practising geotechnical engineers, designers, and consultants. The subjects are treated in line with limit state design, which underpins the Eurocodes and most North America design codes. Instructors and students will value innovative approaches to numerous issues refined by the experience of the author in teaching generations of enthusiastic students. Professionals will gain from its comprehensive treatment of the topics covered in each chapter, supplemented by a plethora of informative material used by consultants and designers. For the benefit of both academics and professionals, conceptual exercises and practical geotechnical design problems are proposed at the end of most chapters. A final annex includes detailed resolutions of the exercises and problems.

Eurafricans in Western Africa
This text examines the late-18th-century changes to the circumstances of Eurafricans - the offspring of Jewish, French, Dutch and English traders in western Africa.
Strangers Within
A comprehensive study of the New Christian elite of Jewish origin—prominent traders, merchants, bankers and men of letters—between the fifteenth and eighteenth centuries In Strangers Within, Francisco Bethencourt provides the first comprehensive history of New Christians, the descendants of Jews forced to convert to Catholicism in late medieval Spain and Portugal. Bethencourt estimates that there were around 260,000 New Christians by 1500—more than half of Iberia’s urban population. The majority stayed in Iberia but a significant number moved throughout Europe, Africa, the Middle East, coastal Asia and the New World. They established Sephardic communities in North Africa, the Ottoman...
Termodinâmica para Engenharia
No presente contexto de um manual de Termodinâmica dirigido especialmente aos alunos de Engenharia Mecânica, valorizam-se os princípios básicos e estrutura-se a concetualização e a estratégia da utilização da Termodinâmica em torno da noção de sistema e das suas interações com a referência que é o ambiente. Pretende-se com este livro que todos os conceitos relevantes da Termodinâmica sejam englobados de forma sistemática num único texto coerente que possa servir para os cursos de engenharia e de física, quer do segundo, quer do terceiro ciclo.
Noções sobre Álgebra Linear
Trata-se de uma nova obra didática que visa contribuir para que o ensino das matérias ligadas às disciplinas de Matemática se torne mais aliciante, realçando a preocupação do autor em alertar os seus leitorespara a importância que estas matérias devem ocupar na formação do património científico dos evrdadeiros profissionais de Engenharia. A matéria tratada no presente texto encontra-se estruturada em cinco capítulos- espaços lineares ou vetoriais, espaços euclidianos, transfoemações lineares, mudanças de base e valores próprios e vetores próprios. É de realçar a diversidade de problemas resolvidos ao longo da obra, fundamentais para uma melhor compreensão dos conceitos teóricos e a clarificação das técnicas de cálculo neles envolvidas, bem como a grande variedade de problemas propostos para resolução no final de cada capítulo, que permitirão ao leitor uma adequada exercitação em torno das matérias tratadas. Sempre que possível, o autor apresenta, no final do livro, e com as vantagens que daía dvêm, as respetivas soluções.
