Analysis of circular bond-type anchorages for prestressing composite rods under quasi-static, fatigue and time-dependent loads 

    Puigvert Cobos, Francesc (Date of defense: 2014-10-20)

    En estructures pretesades sotmeses a ambients corrosius, s'està estudiant la possibilitat de substituir els tendons d’acer per tendons que no pateixin els efectes de la corrosió. En aquest sentit, els materials compostos ...

    Evaluación del daño por impacto en laminados de material compuesto mediante la respuesta dinámica 

    Pérez Martínez, M. (Marco) (Date of defense: 2012-02-06)

    Composite laminates offer decisive advantages compared to more traditional materials, especially in structural applications where weight is a design-limiting factor. However, they have also shown a susceptibility to impact ...

    Thermo-mechanical analysis of welding processes 

    Dialamishabankareh, Narges (Date of defense: 2014-03-12)

    This thesis deals with the numerical simulation of welding processes. The analysis is focused either at global level, considering the full component to be jointed, or locally, studying more in detail the heat affected zone ...
