An estimation of the damage of scale models of breakwaters using the time of flight method
The assessment of damage evolution in scale model tests of rubble-mound breakwaters can be achieved by comparing eroded depths and volumes between consecutive surveys. Aiming to evaluate damage evolution on rubble-mound breakwater, scale model tests were recently conducted on the maritime hydraulic facilities of the National Laboratory for Civil Engineering. This paper focuses on the use of novel, non-intrusive survey methodologies such as the Time of Flight (ToF) principle technique. In this study, damage evaluation is based on the comparison of point clouds obtained before and after each test series, enabling the calculation of eroded depths and eroded volumes and the estimation of displaced units by using a non-dimensional damage parameter based on the eroded volume.

Application of Maxwell damping in the dynamic analysis of masonry structures with discrete elements
Discrete element models are widely used in the analysis of masonrystructures, as they provide an effective approximation of the observedbehaviour, namely for modelling collapse modes governed by thediscontinuities. Assessment of the response under earthquakes is an importantapplication of these models, which perform time domain dynamic analysisusing explicit algorithms. Rayleigh damping is generally used, but itsmass-proportional component has potential adverse effects, and the small stepsrequired by explicit solutions lead to large computational costs. An alternativedamping formulation employing Maxwell elements in parallel with the jointstiffness is proposed and tested. Problems involving linear elastic analysis ofcolumn bending, rocking of rigid blocks, and out-of-plane failure of masonrywalls under seismic loading are examined. The proposed damping approachdisplayed a sound mechanical performance and is computationally efficient.These early results justify further investigation of the technique for a broaderapplication in masonry structural dynamics.

Application of SWASH to Compute Wave Overtopping in Ericeira Harbour for Operational Purposes
This work aimed at testing the capability of the numerical model SWASH to be implemented in the prototype of the overtopping and flooding forecast system HIDRALERTA for Ericeira harbour. In contrast to the neural network NN_OVERTOPPING2, which is currently implemented in HIDRALERTA, SWASH is able to estimate the flood extension and wave propagation along the domain, which makes it a possible improvement to NN_OVERTOPPING2. The one-dimensional version of the SWASH model was implemented to simulate overtopping at two different profiles (antifer and tetrapods) and calibrated for three storms in 2019 by comparing the simulated overtopping discharge to NN_OVERTOPPING2 results. For the calibration, the Manning coefficient was used to represent the friction of the armour layer. Then, for operational purposes, four expressions to calculate the Manning coefficient were developed based on: the relative crest freeboard, the wave steepness, the incident wave angle and the type of armour layer. The expressions showed small errors between the calculated and calibrated Manning coefficients and highlighted the importance of the incident wave angle to obtain an accurate calibration. Despite an underestimation of the overtopping discharge in some cases, the SWASH model was found to provide overall good results when applied with calculated Manning coefficients and suitable to be implemented in HIDRALERTA.

Argamassas com agregados reciclados de RCD submetidos a carbonataÆo forada. AvaliaÆo do seu comportamento em aplicaäes em suporte de tijolo.
A ind£stria da construÆo respons vel por um tero do total de res¡duos produzidos na EU. Atualmente, encontrar soluäes para a reutilizaÆo ou reciclagem destes res¡duos uma das maiores preocupaäes ambientais do sector. A substituiÆo de areia natural em materiais de construÆo, tais como betäes ou argamassas, por res¡duos de construÆo e demoliÆo (RCD) uma alternativa favor vel, j que aumenta o ciclo de vida dos res¡duos e reduz o uso de recursos naturais. Estes agregados, que em geral contm proporäes elevadas de materiais ciment¡cios, tm algum potencial de carbonataÆo e, portanto, capacidade para a captura de CO2. Ao serem incorporados, reduzem as emissäes deste g s para a atmosfera, contribuindo assim tambm para a neutralidade carb¢nica da ind£stria cimenteira e da construÆo em geral. Os RCD, em contacto com o CO2, reagem quimicamente atravs da carbonataÆo, o que expetavelmente contribui para o aumento da sua massa vol£mica e reduÆo da porosidade. Assim, estes novos agregados (RCD carbonatados) serÆo mais resistentes e menos absorventes, o que pode favorecer as propriedades das argamassas, em comparaÆo com os mesmos agregados reciclados nÆo carbonatados.

Assessing intermittent saline inflows in urban water systems
Urban water drainage systems' primary function is to transport sanitary or stormwater. The intrusion of saline waters has recognized detrimental effects. Especially in coastal areas, saline inflows can compromise performance by increasing the risk of untreated discharges, weakening the structural condition of concrete or metallic components, reducing the effectiveness of wastewater treatment processes and limiting the potential reuse for irrigation. Performance deterioration can be prevented by an early assessment of exposure to saline water, followed by timely actions to control its causes and consequences. The paper describes a procedure for diagnosing undue saline inflows. The procedure is based on the determination of saline inflow's magnitude, acceptance levels, and contribution to the system's performance. Contextual factors and performance indicators, and their reference values, are selected for the assessment. Options to address the problem are proposed, depending on the results. These options can relate to organizational, operational, and structural actions. Application to a case study allowed to validate the method and discuss the results. Here, saline volumes entering the system are quite relevant (almost 30%), posing problems regarding corrosion, treatment plant operation and significant concrete exposure to intermittent saline waters.

Assessment of the contribution of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) to urban resilience: application to the case study of Porto
Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) provide a systemic approach to promote the maintenance, enhancement, and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystem services (ES) in urban areas, helping to enhance urban resilience in the water sector. Within the sustainable development goals proposed by UNHABITAT, resilience in cities was established as a critical issue. The assessment of the NBS contribution to urban resilience and the development of tools to determine the long-term value of these solutions comprise a most needed step forward.
