Hybrid diffuse optical devices allows for the non-invasive and continuous monitoring of the cerebral haemodynamics and metabolism. Such devices can be portable and are relatively inexpensive, therefore available at the ...
Farzam, Parisa (Fecha de defensa: 2014-10-14)
Noninvasive measurement of hemodynamics at the microvascular level may have a great impact on oncology in clinics for diagnosis, therapy planning and monitoring, and, in preclinical studies. To this end, diffuse optics is ...
Mireles Núñez, Miguel Adrián (Fecha de defensa: 2018-10-24)
A pre-clinical mouse model of human clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) was employed as a method to study the prognostic and theranostic potential of two, non-invasive, deep tissue, diffuse optical techniques, namely ...
Avtzi, Stella (Fecha de defensa: 2024-05-03)
(English) Hybrid diffuse optical devices offer a non-invasive and continuous and cost-effective method for monitoring cerebral blood flow and metabolism on the bedside use and realistic simulation applications. The ...
Joseph Duran, Bernat (Fecha de defensa: 2014-11-04)
Combined sewer networks carry wastewater and storm water together. During normal operation all the water is delivered to wastewater treatment plants, where it is treated before being released to surrounding natural water ...
Bello Gómez, Lorena (Fecha de defensa: 2015-12-21)
(English) Hybrid Networks explores in detail the slow geography of the French Camino network in northwest Spain, giving an account of the network at the scale of the lberian Peninsula and Europe. This old itinerary is a ...
Selim, Hossam (Fecha de defensa: 2020-07-21)
This PhD thesis is devoted to the design, development and implementation of a non-contact hybrid non-destructive testing (NDT) method applied to the analysis of metallic objects that contain embedded defects or fractures. ...
Bermúdez Ureña, Esteban (Fecha de defensa: 2017-07-17)
The field of photonics comprehends the generation, manipulation and detection of light (photons). Over the past decades, it has underpinned many of the technological advances upon which we rely on a daily basis, from our ...
Ribera Pi, Judit (Fecha de defensa: 2019-07-23)
The increasing water demand coupled to the depletion of natural water sources has raised the need to investigate and develop in wastewater treatment and reuse. Even more, the application of circular economy principies to ...
Mata Mena, Clemente (Fecha de defensa: 2003-07-17)
In 1996 the Backfill and Plug Test Project started at the Äspö Hard Rock Laboratory (Sweden) managed by SKB (the Swedish Radioactive Waste Agency). The Backfill and Plug Test Project makes up an important part of SKB's ...
Tarragó Munté, Daniel (Fecha de defensa: 2021-06-03)
The starting point of this thesis is the failure of part of a quay wall under construction. The quay was divided in two phases, failure affected Phase 1 only. The failure and all the relevant associated information on quay ...
Ruiz Restrepo, Daniel Felipe (Fecha de defensa: 2020-06-12)
Bentonite-based materials are being currently considered in several countries as a backfill component in the multi-barrier concept for deep geological disposal of radioactive waste. The bentonite barrier fulfils several ...
Mirsalehi, Sajjad (Fecha de defensa: 2018-04-30)
This research focusses on an experimental investigation on the hydro-mechanical behaviour of binary ‘all-one’ mixtures. These mixtures –originated from the excavation of selected materials during earthwork constructions– ...
Mesa Alcantara, Arisleidy (Fecha de defensa: 2021-07-02)
The hydro-mechanical behaviour of MX80 bentonite pellet-based mixture (80% high-density pellets in dry mass and crushed granular powder) has been explored in this thesis within the context of the French ‘Vertical Sealing ...
