Smart Composite Coatings and Membranes
Smart Composite Coatings and Membranes: Transport, Structural, Environmental and Energy Applications provides the latest information on the increase in demand for new smart materials for a wide array of different technological applications. The book comprehensively reviews the latest developments in smart composite materials used as membranes, barriers, and coatings, with a special focus on corrosion protection, transportation, structure, and the wide range of applications. Part one examines the properties, processing, and manufacture of smart composite materials, along with techniques for modeling the behavior of these materials, while other sections review the use of smart composite coatin...
Corrosion and Protection of Magnesium Alloys
Magnesium (Mg) alloys, possessing good thermal and electrical conductivity, low density, recyclability, high specific strength, and excellent damping capacity, are regarded as one of the most promising light metallic materials. Mg alloys are also known as the “inexhaustible green light engineering material” compared with steel, aluminum, copper, and engineering plastics, providing some important applications in communications, automotive, defense, aerospace, and biomedical industries. However, the low electrode potential causes poor corrosion resistance in the environment of moist air, sulfur, and marine atmosphere. And thus, the corrosion and protection technology of Mg and its alloys i...
Advanced Materials for the Conservation of Stone
This book identifies novel advanced materials that can be utilized as protective agents for the preservation of stone.

Electrochemical Capacitors
Electrochemical capacitors are being increasingly introduced in energy storage devices, for example, in automobiles, renewable energies, and mobile terminals. This book includes five high-quality papers that can lead to technological developments in electrochemical capacitors. The first paper describes the effect of the milling degree of activated carbon particles used in the electrodes on the supercapacitive performance of an electric double-layer capacitor. The second, fourth, and fifth papers describe novel electrode materials that have the potential to enhance the performance of next-generation electrochemical capacitors. Nickel molybdate/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite, copper-deco...
Enciclopédia de Fátima

Em mais de 120 entradas, especialistas de diversas áreas história, teologia, arte, sociologia, etnografia e urbanismo, entre outras fazem desta Enciclopédia de Fátima não só um meio de acesso rápido a toda a informação pertinente sobre os actores e os lugares, os temas e os problemas, a origem e a evolução das aparições da Cova da Iria, mas também um trabalho que oferece, pela primeira vez, tanto a estudiosos como a quaisquer outros interessados no tema, uma visão global e actualizada das investigações sobre Fátima que se abre a interpretações rigorosas e críticas, teologicamente fundamentadas e historicamente objectivas.
Portraits of Medea in Portugal during the 20th and 21st Centuries
The theme of Medea in Portuguese literature has mainly given rise to the writing of new plays on the subject. The central episode in the Portuguese rewritings in the last two centuries is the one that takes place in Corinth, i.e., the break between Medea and Jason, on the one hand, and Medea’s killing of their children in retaliation, on the other. Besides the complex play of feelings that provides this episode with very real human emotions, gender was a key issue in determining the interest that this story elicited in a society in search of social renovation, after profound political transformations – during the transition between dictatorship and democracy which happened in 1974 – that generated instability and established a requirement to find alternative rules of social intercourse in the path towards a new Portugal.
1st International Conference on Engineering Manufacture 2022
This book focusses on additive manufacturing including many aspects, like vacuum assisted high pressure die casting, semi-solid metal casting, compressive and tensile forming processes, micro and nano machining, nanocomposite manufacturing, adhesive bonding, laser cutting and joining. Subtopics like modelling and optimization of manufacture processes, design for manufacturing strategies, development of new manufacturing technologies, design of novel manufacturing equipment, comparative case studies, cost and quality analysis, ecological aspects and destructive and non-destructive testing of manufactured components are also presented. The book provides a state of the art of engineering manufacture and also serves as a reference volume for researchers and graduate students using technological processes. This volume gathers selected contributions of the 1st International Conference on Engineering Manufacture 2022, held in Porto, Portugal, on May 5–6, 2022.
