Purpose – This paper investigates how designers exploit the full potential of additive manufacturing (AM). AM yields a broad range of advantageous properties including the possibility to fabricate mechanical multi-body structures. Design/methodology/approach – This case study explores the possibilities and limitations in designing mechanical multi-body structures for AM, focused on the development of a selective laser sintering (SLS) version of Theo Jansen’s “Strandbeest” walking mechanism, dubbed Animaris Geneticus Parvus (AGP). We discuss the design process and considerations involved and attempt to distill design guidelines. Findings – Novel structural solutions were developed to enable SLS fabrication of the AGP, specifically cross-shaped pivot pins, increased clearance between bodies, spacing studs, restricting axial play with pins, partial disassemblies and increased clearance around extremities. The result is a functioning walking mechanism of 74 components can be fabricated at once without human intervention. Research limitations/implications – This article represents a case study; although it does mention adapted design rules for SLS, its greatest contribution is the holistic approach – to integrate a number of engineering challenges in one prototypical manifestation. Practical implications – Part consolidation by AM could bring great benefits in future product design applications. The findings show that complex multi-body mechanical structures with more than 70 elements are feasible by AM without assembly. This presents new business opportunities for AM service bureaus and novel product opportunities for designers. Originality/value – As a case study, this article provides inspiration of the mechanical complexity beyond regular products – from original idea to end result. For researchers, key contribution is the approach in obtaining design optimization strategies which provides engineering designers with a new language to consider SLS.

Safeguarding one of the Algarve’s protective barriers The LIFE Ilhas Barreira project ran from 2019 to 2025 and aimed to protect species and habitats on the Barreira Islands, Portugal. Co-financed by the European Union’s LIFE programme, the project was coordinated by the Portuguese Society for the Study of Birds (SPEA), with partners Animaris, RIAS/ Aldeia, ICNF, CCMAR/UAlg, CIMA/UAlg and Ecotop-MARE/University of Coimbra.

RESUMO O presente ensaio aborda o período anterior às obras tidas como as diferentes reescrições da Doutrina da Ciência, de J. G. Fichte, e aí tenta não só perceber a origem da necessidade de um princípio da identidade, como ela surge aquando das primeiras ocorrências do mesmo, mas também discernir os primeiros passos de todo o problema da possibilidade (ou não) de um princípio absoluto de toda a filosofia, que sempre animaria a empresa. O foco em questão é a «Aenesidemus-Rezension», onde Fichte junta a sua voz ao aceso diálogo já anteriormente entabulado por K. L. Reinhold e G. E. Schulze, e, na necessidade de repensar o princípio da consciência do primeiro, e as críticas a este feitas pelo segundo, é trazido à convicção da necessidade de um novo princípio absoluto; mas onde, e é este o fulcro do presente ensaio, Fichte percebe a insuficiência filososófica do sistema reinholdiano como uma insuficiência de linguagem, e portanto todo o problema como um problema que depende intimamente de uma apoditicidade linguística, e daí parte para a proposta de uma nova terminologia nacional, uma linguagem filosófica sistematicamente certa e inequívoca, à altura de um sistema filosófico regido por um princípio absoluto – um problema que viria a ocupar as cogitações de toda a geração de jovens pensadores em torno do professor de Jena.

Résumé : Sur la scène de l'art contemporain chinois, force est de constater que les animaux sont des acteurs qui jouent un rôle primordial. Quelle est l'enjeu de la présence des animaux dans cette nouvelle vague de création née après 1978, mêlant tradition et modernité, Occident et Orient ? En analysant les œuvres majeures dans ce domaine, et avec la rétrospective de notre propre parcours artistique, il est démontré que les animaux sont à la fois des métaphores et la présence même que cherche à exprimer l'artiste chinois : retrouver et redéfinir son humanité tant abîmée par la Révolution culturelle, dans un environnement social et politique toujours sous contrôle et sous tension. En remontant dans les racines de la pensée chinoise sur l'animal et l'animalité, impactée par la pensée judéo-chrétienne et le marxisme, le sacrifice des animaux et de l'animalité dans l'art contemporain chinois sera envisagé comme un phénomène esthétique que nous nommerons l'" animaRité ".Aujourd'hui, après la crise du Covid et avec l'avènement de l'intelligence artificielle, une connaissance approfondie de l'animalité dans l'art contemporain chinois peut ouvrir quelques voies novatrices à une complémentarité et non plus à une opposition des relations Homme/Animal
Abstract : On the Chinese contemporary art scene, it is clear that animals play a key role. What is the issue for the presence of animals in this new wave of creation born after 1978, blending tradition and modernity, West and East? By analysing the major works in this field, and looking back on our own artistic career, we have shown that animals are both metaphors and the very presence of what Chinese artists are trying to express: rediscovering and redefining their humanity, so damaged by the Cultural Revotion, in a social and political environment that is still under control and under tension. By going back to the roots of Chinese thought on the animal and animality, impacted by Judeo-Christian thought and Marxism, we can identify the sacrifice of animals and animality in contemporary Chinese art as an aesthetic phenomenon that we call ‘animaRity'.Acturally, the human/animal duality raises the question of the Other. Today, after the Covid crisis and with the advent of artificial intelligence, it's time to reinvent a new human/animal relationship that respects animals, who are in fact our co-creators on Mother Earth

Relatório de estágio de mestrado em Educação (área de especialização em Educação de Adultos e Intervenção Comunitária)
O projeto “Animarte com Animus na Promoção do Envelhecimento Ativo”, teve como principal premissa a promoção de um envelhecimento ativo, através da educação ao longo da vida, com recurso à animação sociocultural. Realizado numa Junta de freguesia, participaram neste projeto oitenta e dois adultos/idosos com idades compreendidas entre os 47 e os 92 anos, residentes nessa freguesia e nas envolventes. Num contexto, onde as pessoas estão isoladas culturalmente, através da participação das pessoas adultas e idosas em atividades de índole social, económica, cultural, desportiva, recreativa e/ou de voluntariado, procuramos promover o envelhecimento ativo, assim como consciencializar para a importância da educação ao longo da vida, dotando os envolvidos de estratégias, práticas, instrumentos e ferramentas emancipatórias, de empoderamento e convivialidade, assentes em valores como a igualdade, solidariedade, responsabilidade, fraternidade e liberdade. Sendo a temática da educação ao longo da vida um tema atual, importa apelar para a necessidade de apostar em políticas para o desenvolvimento e expansão de programas/iniciativas desta natureza nos mais diversificados contextos. Assim, orientados por uma investigação qualitativa e com base no método da investigação--ação participativa realizamos várias oficinas temáticas, onde os adultos/idosos participantes puderam adquirir novas aprendizagens, conviver e melhorar a sua qualidade de vida. De evidenciar, que estas oficinas contribuíram de forma muito benéfica para o aumento da qualidade de vida dos participantes, sensibilizando-os quer para a importância da educação ao longo da vida, quer para a valorização e concretização de práticas promotoras de um envelhecimento ativo.
The Project "Animarte with Animus in the promotion of the active aging", had as its main premise, promote active aging through education over a life time, using social and cultural animation. Implemented in a village council, eighty two adults/ seniors aged between 47 and 92 years old, residents in this village and surroundings, have participated on this project. In a context where people are isolated culturally, through the participation of these adults and aged people in activities of a social nature, economic, cultural, sporting, recreational and/ or voluntary service, we search for promote active aging, as well as to become aware of the importance of education throughout life, endowing the participants with strategies, experience, instruments and emancipatory tolls of empowerment and conviviality, based on values such as equality, solidarity, responsibility, brotherhood and freedom. Being the theme of education throughout life an actual topic, it appeals to the importance of the necessity to invest in policies for the development and expansion programs/ initiatives of this nature in the most diverse contexts. Thus, guided by a qualitative research and based on the method participative investigation/ action, we implemented several thematic workshops, where adults/ seniors participants were able to acquire new learning, live together and improve their life quality. To point out that these workshops contributed in a very beneficial way to increase the participant’s quality life, making them aware of the importance of education throughout life and to appreciate and to realize promoting practices of an active aging.
Le projet « Animarte avec Animus dans la Promotion du Vieillissement Actif » avait comme prémisse principale la promotion d’un vieillissement actif, par le biais de l’éducation permanente, avec l’appel à l’animation socioculturelle. Réalisé dans une commune, avec la participation de quatre-vingt-deux adultes/personnes âgées de 47 et 92 ans, résidents dans la commune ainsi que dans les environs. Dans un contexte où les gens sont isolés sur le plan culturel, grâce à la participation des adultes et des personnes âgées dans des activités d’ordre social, économique, culturel, sportif, récréatif et/au travail bénévole, nous cherchons à promouvoir le vieillissement actif, mais également la prise de conscience sur l'importance de l'éducation permanente, en dotant a ceux qui y participent des stratégies, pratiques, des instruments et des outils pour l'émancipation, l'autonomisation et la convivialité. Tout ceci basé sur des valeurs telles que l'égalité, la solidarité, la responsabilité, la fraternité et la liberté. Portant sur thème de l’éducation permanente, un thème actuel, il est important de faire appel à la nécessité de mettre en place (d’investir sur) des politiques pour le développement et l’expansion des programmes/initiatives de cette nature dans des contextes les plus divers. Ainsi, guidé par une recherche qualitative et basé sur la méthode de recherche-action participative nous avons mené plusieurs ateliers thématiques, dans lesquels les adultes/personnes âgées participants ont pu acquérir de nouveaux apprentissages, de socialisation et d'amélioration de leur qualité de vie. Afin de mettre en évidence que ces ateliers ont été très bénéfiques pour augmenter la qualité de vie des participants, on les a sensibilisé sur l’importance de l’éducation permanente, ainsi que sur la valorisation et la mise en oeuvre de pratiques de promotion d’un vieillissement actif.
