(English) In the wake of a digital revolution, contemporary society finds itself entrenched in an era where network applications' demands surpass the capabilities of conventional network management solutions. This dissertation ...
Medical imaging refers to several different technologies that are used to view the human body in order to diagnose, monitor, or treat medical conditions. Each type of technology gives different information about the area ...
In recent years there has been an extraordinary growth of large-scale data processing and related technologies in both, industry and academic communities. This trend is mostly driven by the need to explore the increasingly ...
Water is a limited resource essential for life. Human activities have been exercising considerable pressures on it. The unsustainable use and the need to improve the management of water are among the largest global concerns ...
Classical nova explosions are stellar explosions that take place in close binary systems with an energy release only exceeded by gamma-ray bursts and supernova explosions. Matter from the white dwarf flows through the inner ...
Thin film photovoltaics encompass a group of technologies able to harvest light within a few microns thickness. The reduced thickness allows a low cost of manufacture while making the films flexible and adaptable to ...
This thesis is devoted to design a multi-layer MPC controller applied to the complex water network taking into account that the different layers with different time scales and control objectives have their own controller. ...
This Ph.D. thesis illustrates a novel study on the analytical and numerical design optimization of radial-flux permanent magnet synchronous wind generators (PMSGs) for small power generation in an urban area, in which an ...
(English) The proposed PhD thesis consists in solving the Multi-manned Assembly Line Balancing Problem (MALBP). This type of assembly lines is common in the manufacture of large products, such as automobiles, in which ...
Many real-life optimization problems are combinatorial, i.e. they concern a choice of the best solution from a finite but exponentially large set of alternatives. Besides, the solution quality of many of these problems ...
The present dissertation is focused on the energy optimization of systems which contain multiple energy carriers. The objective of the research is the development of a methodology and the corresponding software tools, which ...
(English) As a crucial node of maritime transportation, seaports carry more than 90% of global trade. Considering the complexity of a port system, even slight improvement at strategical and operational decision levels will ...
This thesis deals with the need to move towards a holistic, truly integrated and ecosystem-based beach management that allows a sustainable use of these systems within the socio-ecological paradigm. However, the scarcity ...
This thesis proposes the study and development of a teleoperation system based on multi-robot cooperation under the task oriented teleoperation paradigm: Multi-Robot Cooperative Paradigm, MRCP. In standard teleoperation, ...
Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is primarily involved in back pain, a morbidity that strongly affects the quality of life of individuals nowadays. Lumbar IVDs undergo stressful mechanical loads while being the largest ...
The development of urban models based on mathematical and physics concepts has been one of the most intense scientific areas of research for the last two decades in urban studies. Cellular automata (CA), a mathematical ...
The present dissertation aims at addressing multiscale topology optimization problems. For this purpose, the concept of topology derivative in conjunction with the computational homogenization method is considered. In ...
In recent years, there have been considerable efforts in the design and development of technologies and techniques for more efficient harvesting of renewable energy resources to meet the ever increasing electric power ...
Depth map data is used to supplement the color data in multi-view sequences. As depth maps present distinct Characteristics than natural color images, new coding techniques are required to represent their smooth regions ...
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that is considered to be the biggest killer of mankind in the history of infectious diseases. There are still more than 10 million new TB cases every year and it causes more than ...
