Creating a Roadmap Towards Circularity in the Built Environment

This open access book summarizes the research being pursued as part of the COST Action CA21103 titled "Implementation of Circular Economy in the Built Environment" (Circular B), which aims to define the methodology to develop a common circularity framework for inclusive application and assessment in new and existing buildings to support decision-making for all value chain stakeholders and appraise the implementation level of the European Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP). The Action is increasingly gaining interest worldwide, bringing multidisciplinary young and experienced researchers together to share the latest studies and develop new knowledge. Consisting of 17 chapters corresponding t...

The first Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (PCSMGE) was held in Mexico in 1959. Every 4 years since then, PCSMGE has brought together the geotechnical engineering community from all over the world to discuss the problems, solutions and future challenges facing this engineering sector. Sixty years after the first conference, the 2019 edition returns to Mexico. This book, Geotechnical Engineering in the XXI Century: Lessons learned and future challenges, presents the proceedings of the XVI Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (XVI PCSMGE), held in Cancun, Mexico, from 17 – 20 November 2019. Of the 393 full papers submitt...

A produção do conhecimento nas engenharias: novas fronteiras, tecnologias e desafios

A área de “engenharia” compreende diversos segmentos de grande importância para a qualidade de vida da população, que usufrui dos serviços prestados pelos profissionais do setor e desfrutam do ambiente no qual as atividades são desenvolvidas. Dada a ascensão alcançada nos últimos anos, a engenharia tem se tornado sinônimo de desenvolvimento. Especialmente nos países emergentes, como o Brasil, a engenharia é essencial para ampliação da infraestrutura, desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias, melhoria dos serviços ofertados à sociedade e para a resolução de problemas que permeiam os meios social, econômico e ambiental. Logo, é notória a necessidade de expandir as discussões realizadas nesse âmbito, de modo a possibilitar uma maior interação da sociedade com os meios de atuação da engenharia. Assim, o livro, “A produção do conhecimento nas engenharias: novas fronteiras, tecnologias e desafios” reúne 13 capítulos que permitem aos leitores a construção de reflexões acerca relação da engenharia com a criação de novos produtos e o controle da qualidade, o uso de recursos naturais, com a qualidade e o saneamento ambiental.

Sustentabilidade dos oceanos

A Série Sustentabilidade surgiu a partir da análise do panorama histórico com o inicio do conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável formulado pela Comissão Brundtland em 1970 até o evento da Agenda 21 com enorme influência no mundo em todas as áreas, reforçando o movimento ambientalista. A série, escrita por renomados pesquisadores nacionais que apresentam análises do impacto do conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável no Brasil, é coordenada pelo prof. José Goldemberg e tem como objetivo analisar o que está sendo feito para evitar um crescimento populacional sem controle e uma industrialização predatória, em que a ênfase seja apenas o crescimento econômico, bem como o que p...
