Proceedings of the RILEM Spring Convention and Conference 2025
This book collects peer-reviewed papers from the RILEM Spring Conference on Durability of Building Materials and Systems in Transportation Infrastructure, held in Mendrisio, Switzerland, on 25–28 March 2025. The contributions provide an up-to-date overview of advances in materials science and structural engineering, with a particular focus on the durability, performance and sustainability of construction materials and systems used in modern infrastructure. They also showcase recent progress in experimental techniques and analytical models that support preventive maintenance and the long-term performance of infrastructure assets. The topics include pavement maintenance, innovative cementitious composites, bridge and structural applications, corrosion mechanisms, diagnostic and monitoring techniques, strategies for deterioration mitigation and approaches to service life design. In addition to infrastructure applications, selected papers address sustainable architecture and heritage conservation, offering an integrated perspective on the durability and preservation of the built environment.
Cultural and Creative Mural Spaces
This book puts into context the evolution of mural art in recent years, particularly the case of the contemporary muralism in Uruguay. While the focus of this volume, revolves around Uruguay, the editors demonstrate that circumstances found in Uruguay are also reflected widely in a large number of cases worldwide. Mural art has evolved from an elite audience to a more popular objective. At the same time, it does not lose the necessity of high value artists that, not only technically but also conceptually, will be able to connect to the audience and provide a sense of identity and necessity of preservation of this art. This leads to a down-top approach, where different actors take part in the process, from the conceptualization to the conservation. Moreover, mural art has been studied as a driver of local economic development, attracting visitors and tourists can access these open-air museums easily. This book is of interest to students and researchers working in fine art, heritage and museum studies.
Devotional Music in the Iberian World, 1450-1800
From the fifteenth century to the beginning of the nineteenth century, devotional music played a fundamental role in the Iberian world. Songs in the vernacular, usually referred to by the generic name of 'villancico', but including forms as varied as madrigals, ensaladas, tonos, cantatas or even oratorios, were regularly performed at many religious feasts in major churches, royal and private chapels, convents and in monasteries. These compositions appear to have progressively fulfilled or supplemented the role occupied by the Latin motet in other countries and, as they were often composed anew for each celebration, the surviving sources vastly outnumber those of Latin compositions; they can ...
