- 2nd. International Workshop on Additive Manufacturing and Sustainability (IWAM): book of proceedingsPublication . Rocha, João; Ribeiro, J.E.; Santos, Jorge; Lima, Rui A.In recent years, the manufacturing processes have undergone a profound transformation, driven by the rapid evolution of additive manufacturing (AM) technologies. What began as a tool primarily for prototyping through stereolithography has now expanded into a versatile and innovative field capable of producing functional, end-use components across a wide range of industries. From fused deposition modeling (FDM) to selective laser melting (SLM) and beyond, AM has unlocked new possibilities in design, material utilization, and production efficiency. Today, additive manufacturing encompasses an extensive array of materials, including metals, polymers, paper, and even biological tissues, enabling applications that span from the mechanical industry to the biomedical sector. One of the most compelling aspects of additive manufacturing is its potential to drive sustainability in modern production processes. Unlike traditional subtractive methods, which often generate significant material waste, AM builds components layer by layer, minimizing excess material and promoting resource efficiency. Furthermore, the ability to use eco-friendly and recyclable materials aligns with global efforts to reduce environmental impact. AM also supports the production of complex, customized parts on demand, reducing the need for large inventories and long-distance transportation, thereby lowering carbon emissions. By optimizing resource use and enabling more efficient production cycles, additive manufacturing is emerging as a cornerstone of sustainable manufacturing practices. This proceeding book arrests the latest advancements, challenges, and opportunities in the field of additive manufacturing, with a particular focus on its transformative potential and contributions to sustainability. The works presented here reflect the interdisciplinary nature of AM, showcasing innovative techniques, materials, and applications that are shaping the future of manufacturing. From cutting-edge research to real-world case studies, this collection aims to inspire further exploration and collaboration, driving the adoption of additive manufacturing as a key enabler of sustainable industrial progress. We invite readers to probe into these pages and discover how AM is not only redefining manufacturing but also paving the way for a more sustainable and efficient future.

- Recursos Hídricos e Geológicos de Trás-os-MontesPublication . Aguiar, José (Ed.); Rodrigues, Orlando (Ed.); Balsa, CarlosSeis anos volvidos sobre a publicação do livro Recursos Geológicos de Trás- -os-Montes – Passado, presente e perspetivas futuras o Instituto Politécnico de Bragança (IPB) publica agora o livro Recursos Hídricos e Geológicos de Trás-os-Montes. Com este novo livro sobre a mesma temática o IPB pretende completar a divulgação dos principais recursos hídricos e geológicos da região trans- montana, dando agora maior destaque aos recursos hidrogeológicos, aos mi- nerais metálicos e às rochas ornamentais. A publicação deste livro insere-se na principal missão do IPB que é a cria- ção de novos saberes e a sua divulgação com vista à promoção e valorização dos recursos endógenos da região transmontana. A região de Trás-os-Montes possui uma grande abundância de recursos hí- dricos e hidrogeológicos que se materializa em inúmeras nascentes, mui- tas vezes de águas com mineralizações obtidas em grande profundidade, ao longo das grandes falhas que atravessam a região. Devido às propriedades terapêuticas conferidas pelas mineralizações, algumas destas águas são dis- ponibilizadas engarrafadas ou aproveitadas em termalismo de saúde e de bem-estar. De uma forma geral, os recursos hídricos subterrâneos são preciosos para a economia da região e para subsistência das suas populações. O estudo destes recursos é essencial para a sua correta exploração e gestão, de acordo com as boas práticas que garantam a sua qualidade e sustentabilidade. Estas impo- sições são ainda mais prementes no contexto atual das alterações climáticas, em que os períodos de seca prolongados são cada vez mais frequentes. Os estudos aqui apresentados constituem um contributo muito importante para o conhecimento dos recursos hídricos subterrâneos da região transmontana.
- Proceedings of the CIEEMAT 2024 | VIII Ibero-American Congress on Entrepreneurship, Energy, Environment, and TechnologyPublication . Ferreira, Ângela P. (Ed.); Ramos, Fabiana de Oliveira (Ed.); Scotelano, Laíce de Souza (Ed.); Silva, Margarete Heleno da (Ed.); Boloy, Ronney Arismel Mancebo (Ed.)The Federal Center for Technological Education of Rio de Janeiro (CEFET/RJ), in collaboration with the Polytechnic Institute of Bragança (IPB), the Polytechnic Institute of Portalegre (IPPortalegre), and Petrobras, hosted the VIII Ibero-American Congress on Entrepreneurship, Energy, Environment, and Technology (CIEEMAT 2024). The event took place from October 14 to October 16, 2024, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. With Energy Transition as its central theme, CIEEMAT 2024 fulfilled its founding mission: to strengthen Portuguese-Brazilian and Ibero-American cooperation in key areas such as energy efficiency, low-carbon hydrogen, electrification, and carbon capture, utilization, and storage. The event fostered international collaboration, enhancing partnerships between the organizing institutions and advancing global efforts in energy and environmental sustainability. CIEEMAT 2024 provided a platform for discussing topics of critical importance to professionals in the energy transition sector. It also contributed significantly to the development of human resources, both nationally and internationally, by supporting education and training. Furthermore, the congress served as a practical step towards shaping public policies focused on sustainable development and social inclusion, addressing some of the most pressing challenges facing society today. The CIEEMAT Congress has a 16-year history, hosting seven editions as a biennial event, playing a pivotal role for Ibero-American countries. Focused on topics in Entrepreneurship, Energy, Environment, and Technology, it serves as a bridge between academia, government, and industry. Its mission is to foster innovation and strengthen scientific collaboration with companies by analyzing opportunities and challenges posed by sectoral policies and tracking performance indicators for services and their impact. First organized in 2015 by the Federal Center for Technological Education of Rio de Janeiro (CEFET/RJ), CIEEMAT has consistently addressed topics of national and global relevance. Its organization involves esteemed partners such as the Polytechnic Institute of Bragança (IPB), the Polytechnic Institute of Portalegre (IPPortalegre), the Secretariat of Professional and Technological Education (Setec) through the EnergIFE Program for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency in Federal Education Institutions, and Eletrobras/Eletronuclear. CIEEMAT continues to provide a unique venue for the exchange of knowledge and collaborative solutions in energy and environmental challenges.
