The Desclergues of la Villa Ducal de Montblanc (2nd edition) is a comprehensive ancestral chronicle, meticulously tracing the Desclergues family lineage from the Greek era through the Villa Ducal de Montblanc in Tarragona to the present in Belgium. This omnibus edition compiles the entire acclaimed series, offering an exhaustive account of the Desclergues of Montblanc alongside the author's other ancestral lines, including de Patin, de Patin de Langemark, Lesage, Benoit, Den Dauw, 't Kint, Surmont, de Croock, Ardan, Lammens, Decaestecker, and de Silva of Uduwara in Sri Lanka. This scholarly work is enriched by a comprehensive DNA analysis, providing genetic depth to the historical narrative....
The compilation of this book has been made possible with the help of Didier Cassereau, Bertrand Dubus and John Fritsch with support from the Scientific and Technical Committee of 2015 ICU.
In Soul Sparks, Ernesto de Montisalbi embarks on a powerful exploration of life’s pivotal moments, where emotions ignite and the human spirit is tested. Each poem burns with the raw energy of experience, whether capturing the sting of loss, the warmth of love, or the sharpness of memory. This collection stands out for its boldness in addressing both the personal and the universal, offering readers a reflection of their own inner flames. Here, moments of clarity and insight emerge from the complexities of life, offering sparks of understanding and illumination. Soul Sparks is an evocative reminder of the passion that lies beneath the surface of everyday life.
In Light Whispers, Ernesto de Montisalbi brings readers closer to the delicate balance of life’s fleeting moments and timeless truths. This collection captures the subtle beauty found in everyday experiences, where the ordinary transforms into something meaningful and extraordinary. With poems that evoke a range of emotions—joy, grief, wonder—Montisalbi’s verses seem to echo gently in the mind long after reading. Here, life is explored not with grandeur, but with quiet contemplation and gentle insights, as each poem reveals something more about the nature of existence and the depth of human emotion. Light Whispers is a thoughtful companion for those who listen for the soft sounds that shape our world.
Heart Embers is a poignant journey through the deepest corners of the human soul, where love, loss, and reflection are illuminated by the flickers of memory. In this collection, Ernesto de Montisalbi delves into moments of vulnerability and strength, capturing the fragile nature of existence. These poems offer glimpses of life’s intimate moments—some tender, others challenging—while always leaving space for hope and renewal. Each poem carries the heat of lived experience, drawing readers into a contemplative world where every emotion lingers like the glow of embers after a fire. This is a book for those who seek meaning in life’s quiet and intense moments alike.

This is the third volume of a series of proceedings including papers presented at the respective International Conferences entitled: "Emerging Technologies in Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)" that have been held in Greece since 1995. This volume contains papers presented at the third Conference on Emerging Technologies in Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) Conference, convened at Thessaloniki, Greece in 2003. Papers cover a range of subjects including: * interdisciplinary efforts to gain maximum benefit from capabilities from other science and engineering fields * integration of several methods to form multimode systems for improved reliability * increased use of computer simulation to investigate the response of specific methods This work also covers improvements, enhancements and new and innovative ideas in NDT and should be of interest to engineers, researchers, quality control managers, as well as teachers and graduate students in the field.
Shape Memory Polymer Composites discusses the fabrication of smart polymer composites with their material characterization. It covers shape memory polymer composites with two different types of reinforcement: shape memory polymer nanocomposites and shape memory hybrid composites. Enhancing the mechanical and thermomechanical properties of the shape memory polymers makes them an important class of materials for new age applications ranging from aerospace, biomedical, electronics, to marine engineering. The book discusses how shape memory polymer composites exhibit remarkable mechanical properties, as compared to its corresponding shape memory polymers, without compromising the shape memory behavior. It presents experimental case studies of polymers, polymer composites, and multiphase composites, explaining the effects of each reinforcement on the material properties with corresponding simulation. The book will be a useful reference for industry professionals and researchers involved with the mechanics of shape memory materials.
