Despite the fact that masonry is one of the oldest and most used building materials, the number of existing studies and experimental data, as well as the applicability of its results (i.e. extrapolation), ...
Weber, Rodrigo Carreira (Date of defense: 2019-12-13)
This thesis analyzes the hydro-mechanical behavior under a generalized stress state of a compacted mixture of sand (30%) and clayey (70%) at a low density. The experimental study focuses on the analysis ...
Díaz Alvarado, Sergio Alberto (Date of defense: 2017-09-18)
The main objective of this thesis is the probabilistic assessment of the expected seismic damage in steel buildings located in Mexico City. Although a deterministic analysis is performed both, seismic ...
Herrera Gonzalez, Reyes Indira (Date of defense: 2017-03-31)
In this research, the seismic response, the vulnerability and the expected damage in rein-forced concrete residential buildings, with irregular plants, are analyzed. This irregularity is mainly due to ...
Martínez Estévez, Ariadna (Date of defense: 2020-06-29)
In order to cope with the serious and urgent problem of global warming, it is imperative to reduce the impact of CO2 emissions in the atmosphere. One of the alternatives proposed involves the injection ...

The construction and conservation of road networks represent a major part of public expenditure. For instance, the EU-28 countries annually spend approximately EUR 20.000 million on roadway preservation. ...
Pujol Sánchez, Mireia (Date of defense: 2018-06-26)
The use of externally bonded fibre reinforced polymers, FRP, for strengthening reinforced concrete (RC) beams or columns is an alternative to other traditional strengthening techniques due to its high ...
Villota Cadena, Angel Patricio (Date of defense: 2020-07-09)
The objective of the doctoral thesis is to perform the numerical approximation of the transient convection-diffusion-reaction (CDR) vector equation in 2D with high order finite elements, quadratic, ...
Castellón López, Javier (Date of defense: 2020-02-18)
Soil behavior in the range of small strains should be considered in the analysis of geotechnical problems when sensitive elements are affected, which is very common in urban environments. However, some ...
Yubero de Mateo, Maria Teresa (Date of defense: 2021-07-22)
The urban tunneling may generate significant problems. One of the main concerns is the unavoidable ground movements generated; before, during and after the tunneling operations. In this context, the ...
