  • 10 – Eurocruise - Porto Part 4 - Heritage Streetcar Operations
    10 – Eurocruise - Porto Part 4 - Heritage Streetcar Operations On Wednesday morning Luis joined us at breakfast in our hotel, and we walked a couple of blocks in a light fog to a stop on the 22 line. The STCP heritage system consists of three routes, numbered 1, 18 and 22. The first two are similar to corresponding services from the days when standard- gauge streetcars were the most important element in Porto’s transit system. See http://www.urbanrail.net/eu/pt/porto/porto-tram.htm. The three connecting heritage lines run every half-hour, 7 days per week, starting a little after the morning rush hour. Routes 1 and 18 are single track with passing sidings, while the 22 is a one-way loop, with a short single-track stub at its outer end. At its Carmo end the 18 also traverses a one-way loop through various streets. Like Lisbon, the tramway operated a combination of single- and double- truck Brill-type cars in its heyday, but now regular service consists of only the deck-roofed 4-wheelers, which have been equipped with magnetic track brakes. Four such units are operated each day, as the 1 line is sufficiently long to need two cars. The cars on the road on Wednesday were 131, 205, 213 and 220. All were built by the CCFP (Porto’s Carris) from Brill blueprints. The 131 was completed in 1910, while the others came out of the shops in the late 1930s-early 1940s. Porto also has an excellent tram museum, which is adjacent to the Massarelos carhouse, where the rolling stock for the heritage operation is maintained.

  • Research in Maritime Archaeology in Portugal 451
    450Research in maritimeSHIPWRECKS AROUND archaeology THE WORLD: REVELATIONS in OF THE PAST Portugal: A view of the Past and Present 20 Tiago Miguel Fraga, Cristóvão Fonseca, Inês Pinto Coelho, Jorge Freire, Patrícia Carvalho and André Teixeira, Centro de História de Além-Mar, Universidade Nova de Lisboa and Universidade dos Açores, Lisboa, Portugal Portugal is a country with a secular strategy in overseas expansion, a cultural identity linked to the sea and of a cultural heritage spawning four continents. Thus maritime archaeology has become an essential field to understand the country. Presented here is an overview of the current state of maritime archaeology in Portugal in regard to several projects presently underway in Portugal and their contribution towards Portuguese history and maritime history in general. These occur in diverse fields as coastal knowledge, maritime cultural landscape, coastal archaeology, port studies associated with river and estuary research, ship’s studies and history of shipbuilding. Portugal’s ties to the sea have a secular origin. The geographic shoreline configuration (800 km of shoreline in a border of 1800 km) and abundant waterways and ports, led to an intense riverside settlement, to the development of maritime related economic activities, to a secular navigation knowledge and, of course, the cognitive construction of an entire magico-religious maritime tradition in the territory of present day Portugal. A country with very early defined borders in the late 13th century, Portugal secularly adopted overseas expansion as a main strategy. Its interventions in Africa, America and Asia tried to balance a lack of European expression, enabling a fragile political, economic and even cultural independence.

September 7-11, 2009 PROGRAMME Lisbon 2009 2 3 Welcome On behalf of European Mechanics Society (EUROMECH) we are pleased to welcome you to Lisbon for the 7th EUROMECH Solid Mechanics Conference held at Instituto Superior Técnico of the Technical University of Lisbon. EUROMECH has the objective to engage in all activities intended to promote in Europe the development of mechanics as a branch of science and engineering. Activities within the field of mechanics range from fundamental research to applied research in engineering. The approaches used comprise theoretical, analytical, computational and experimental methods. Within these objectives, the society organizes the EUROMECH Solid Mechanics Conference every three years. Following the very successful Conferences in Munich, Genoa, Stockholm, Metz, Thessaloniki and Budapest, the 7th EUROMECH Solid Mechanics Conference (ESMC2009) is now held in Lisbon. The purpose of this Conference is to provide opportunities for scientists and engineers to meet and to discuss current research, new concepts and ideas and establish opportunities for future collaborations in all aspects of Solid Mechanics. We invite you to be an active participant in this Conference and to contribute to any topic, or mini-symposium, of your scientific interest. By promoting a relaxed atmosphere for discussion and exchange of ideas we expect that new paths for research are stimulated and promoted and that new collaborations can be

  • Discover Lisbon with Our Guide!
    The 7th Conference of European Survey Research Association welcomes you to the fashionable city of Lisbon! Lisbon, the most westerly capital in mainland Europe, is one of the few cities in the world to offer a unique natural landscape. It’s for sure one of the most impressively located, with a series of hills facing the Tejo estuary, one of the sunniest and probably one of the least expensive cities to discover. Being a city built on hills, from the various belvederes, installed in the highest points, can enjoy breathtaking views. We highlight the castle of S. Jorge, where we reach the cacilheiros in their crossing to the south bank, the 25th April bridge, Rossio, Carmo convent, Bairro Alto, Eduardo VII park, among other points of the city. Alongside the old city, with a very rich heritage, Lisbon is also a modern city that has been renewed in new cultural and leisure proposals. In this document you can find out more about the places you cannot miss in this city – excursions, restaurants and bars, among others.
