O Boletim do DEMec da FEUP em 1980-1994: Reedição e notas
No full textA ideia de reeditar a primeira série do Boletim do Departamento de Engenharia Mecânica da FEUP resultou do interesse que suscitam os inícios, nos anos setenta, do actual DEMec da FEUP. Reedita-se a primeira série do Boletim do DEMec porque ela é um testemunho de tempos passados que formataram o DEMec que hoje conhecemos. O Departamento de Engenharia Mecânica da FEUP atingiu, em cerca de cinquenta anos de existência, protagonismo a nível nacional e considerável reputação internacional. Que passos terão sido dados para o conseguir?
O Boletim do DEMec é uma fonte de informação traduzindo bem o ethos prevalecente nesses períodos fundadores - mesmo que fonte reconhecidamente precária, registando factos de forma nem sistemática nem exaustiva, e deixando de fora muito do que de importante sucedeu

Eletromagnetismo e Circuitos: Segunda Edição
No full textEste livro é fruto da experiência de mais de 30 anos e 20 anos dos primeiro e segundo autores, respetivamente, no ensino do Eletromagnetismo a estudantes de Engenharia. Espera-se que também seja útil a estudantes de outras áreas que tenham Eletromagnetismo ou circuitos elétricos no seu currículo.
A tecnologia eletromagnética tem evoluído muito nas últimas décadas. Isto faz com que algumas aplicações que faziam há alguns anos parte da experiência quotidiana dos estudantes, como, por exemplo, lâmpadas incandescentes ou tubos de raios catódicos, passem a ser objetos de museu. A nova geração de estudantes está mais habituada a tecnologias que eram desconhecidas para a maioria da população há alguns anos, tais como, células de combustível, ultracondensadores ou LEDs. Torna-se assim importante atualizar os nossos manuais com novos exemplos de aplicação.
Embora os assuntos abordados se encontrem tratados em muitos outros livros, tentamos apresentar, sem descuidar o rigor na introdução dos diferentes conceitos, uma abordagem elementar e original ao Eletromagnetismo e aos circuitos elétricos.
A maior parte dos problemas foram adaptados dos livros na bibliografia, mas vários problemas são originais. Este livro é acompanhado por outro livro, Problemas de Eletromagnetismo e Circuitos, onde é apresentada a resolução de alguns dos problemas propostos no fim de cada capítulo. A resolução de problemas reveste-se de grande importância na aprendizagem dos temas desenvolvidos neste livro.
Os primeiros 5 capítulos são uma introdução à eletrostática e à teoria da eletricidade. O capítulo 6 é sobre circuitos de corrente contínua. Os capítulos 7 e 8 são sobre magnetismo e magnetostática. No capítulo 9 é estudada a indução eletromagnética. O capítulo 10 é sobre circuitos de corrente alternada. As equações de Maxwell e ondas eletromagnéticas são discutidas no capítulo 11 e o último capítulo, 12, é uma discussão breve sobre as história das teorias da luz.
A formatação do livro e todas as figuras foram feitas pelos autores, usando vários pacotes de Software Livre. Usou-se o sistema LaTeX para o texto e as figuras foram feitas com o módulo physics.asy (https://villate.org/software/) para Asymptote. Os gráficos de funções e de linhas de campo foram feitos no x Prefácio Sistema de Computação Algébrica Maxima; este sistema foi também usado para conferir as resoluções dos exemplos e problemas. Os retratos dos físicos na abertura dos capítulos são da autoria de Jaime Villate e foram feitos a lápis de grafite, baseados em fotografias encontradas na Web.
Nesta segunda edição, para além de termos corrigido várias gralhas, a principal alteração foi no capítulo 6, de circuitos de corrente contínua. Em vez de usarmos o método do equivalente Thévenin, passamos a utilizar o método dos nós. Na nossa experiência docente com a primeira edição, chegamos à conclusão de que o método do equivalente Thévenin não acrescentava nenhuma vantagem no tipo de problemas que são abordados neste livro. Esperamos que com esta alteração esse capítulo seja mais fácil de assimilar pelos estudantes.
Outra alteração importante é a passagem da secção sobre corrente de deslocamento, do capítulo 11 para o capítulo 9. Assim, o capítulo 11 começa logo com o problema de resolver as equações de Maxwell no vácuo, que é o tema central do capítulo. A secção sobre corrente de deslocamento está agora no fim do capítulo 9 sobre indução eletromagnética. Acrescentamos também duas novas secções, nos capítulos 4 e 9, sobre a energia armazenada nos campos elétrico e magnético
Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Integrity-Reliability-Failure (IRF2025)
No full textIRF2025 is the eighth international gathering of a prestigious series of Integrity-Reliability-Failure conferences coordinated by the International Scientific Committee on Mechanics and Materials in Design. This series of conferences started in 1999 and they are wholly devoted to advances in assessing the integrity, reliability and failure of engineering systems, materials, manufacturing and biomechanics. IRF2025 is jointly sponsored by the University of Porto, the University of Toronto and the Portuguese Society of Experimental Mechanics. The conference attracted over 160 contributions, with 148 accepted submissions involving 454 authors from 27 different countries.
The conference themes, which address novel and advanced topics on Integrity, Reliability and Failure, focused on Theory, Experiments and Applications in Engineering, including Composite and Advanced Materials, Fatigue and Fracture Mechanics, Structural Dynamics, Mechanical Design and Prototyping, Civil Engineering Applications, Biomechanical Applications, Energy and Thermo-Fluid Systems, and Industrial Engineering, among other topics.
We believe that the meeting and these proceedings offered our delegates an excellent opportunity for the discussion and dissemination of their recent work in assessing the integrity, reliability and failure of engineering structures, components and systems. They fostered research that integrates mechanics and materials in the design process, and promoted exchange of ideas and international co-operation among scientists and engineers in this important field of engineering.
We are particularly indebted to the authors and special guests for their contributions. Each of the 138 approved papers offers an opportunity for thorough discussions with the authors and the scientific community. Particularly, we acknowledge the excellent contributions of the participants, their innovative ideas and research directions, the novel modelling and simulation techniques, and the invaluable critical comments. We also take this opportunity to thank the members of the International Scientific Committee and the reviewers for their time and helpful suggestions, the symposia organizers for their efforts and valuable contributions to the success of conference and this publication, and the local organizing committee for an absolutely superb organization of this “virtual” meeting. To all of them, we offer our deepest gratitude
Problemas Resolvidos de Eletromagnetismo e Circuitos: Segunda Edição
No full textEste livro complementa o livro Eletromagnetismo e Circuitos dos mesmos autores (https://villate.org/eletromagnetismo). Mostra-se a resolução dos primeiros problemas propostos em cada capítulo desse livro. Uma parte muito importante na aprendizagem da Física é a resolução de problemas; alguns dos problemas poderão ser resolvidos pelos estudantes após terem estudado o respetivo capítulo, mas quando houver dificuldades será conveniente consultar a resolução neste livro. Também é recomendável a todos os estudantes que comparem as suas próprias resoluções com as resoluções neste livro.
Os problemas resolvidos neste livro, deveriam ser abordados após terem sido estudados os problemas resolvidos no Eletromagnetismo e Circuitos, onde são designados de exemplos. Este livro também poderá ser útil, de forma independente do Eletromagnetismo e Circuitos, para quem já conheça a teoria envolvida mas esteja interessado em resolver mais problemas.
Os primeiros 5 capítulos são uma introdução à eletrostática e à teoria da eletricidade. O capítulo 6 é sobre circuitos de corrente contínua. Os capítulos 7 e 8 são sobre magnetismo e magnetostática. No capítulo 9 é abordada a indução eletromagnética. O capítulo 10 é sobre circuitos de corrente alternada e o tema do capítulo 11 são as ondas eletromagnéticas.
