During the past few decades there has been relevant development in this field of study and an increase in the professional use of tools that simulate some of the physical phenomena that are involved in Heat, Air and Moisture conditions in building components or elements. Although there is a significant amount of hygrothermal models referred in the literature, the vast majority of them are not easily available to the public outside the institutions where they were developed, which restricts the analysis of this book to only 14 hygrothermal modelling tools. The special features of this book are (a) a state-of-the-art of numerical simulation tools applied to building physics, (b) the boundary conditions importance, (c) the material properties, namely, experimental methods for the measurement of relevant transport properties, and (d) the numerical investigation and application The main benefit of the book is that it discusses all the topics related to numerical simulation tools in building components (including state-of-the-art and applications) and presents some of the most important theoretical and numerical developments in building physics, providing a self-contained major reference that is appealing to both the scientists and the engineers. At the same time, this book will be going to the encounter of a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines, such as civil and mechanical engineering, architecture, etc? The book is divided in several chapters that intend to be a resume of the current state of knowledge for benefit of professional colleagues. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Computational Mechanics,$x2191-5350 606 $aBuilding materials 606 $aMaterials$xAnalysis 606 $aMechanics, Applied 606 $aSolids 606 $aBuilding Materials 606 $aCharacterization and Analytical Technique 606 $aSolid Mechanics 615 0$aBuilding materials. 615 0$aMaterials$xAnalysis. 615 0$aMechanics, Applied. 615 0$aSolids. 615 14$aBuilding Materials. 615 24$aCharacterization and Analytical Technique. 615 24$aSolid Mechanics. 676 $a600 701 $aDelgado$b Joao M.
