The aim of this research is two-folded. On the one hand, it attempts to assist employers of Catalan micro-retailers in designing, implementing and developing their Social Media strategy as a complementary channel of ...
Deploying mobile robots in social environments requires novel navigation algorithms which are capable of providing valid solutions in such challenging scenarios. The main objective of the present dissertation is to develop ...
(English) The challenges that the world is currently facing call for solutions that are interdisciplinary in nature. This implies that engineering professionals need to work together with professionals from different ...
This Ph.D. thesis analyzes the supply and demand of water in the Yucatan Peninsula, México (YP), from the societal metabolism of water perspective. On one hand, an estimation of water supply is made based on a monthly water ...
Supported by technological development and its impact on everyday activities, e-Learning and b-Learning (Blended Learning) have experienced rapid growth mainly in higher education and training. Its inherent ability to break ...
(English) In the field of organ transplantation, a critical gap exists: the availability of organs falls far short of the demand, resulting in numerous recipients dying before they can receive a transplant. The complexity ...
The sustained drive to downsize the transistors has reached a point where device sensitivity against transient faults due to neutron and alpha particle strikes a.k.a soft errors has moved to the forefront of concerns for ...
Despite the fact that the most viable L1 memories in processors are caches, on-chip local memories have been a great topic of consideration lately. Local memories are an interesting design option due to their many benefits: ...
(English) The increasing complexity and demands of modern telecommunications networks necessitate the development of autonomous and secure systems to ensure efficient, reliable, and secure communications. The integration ...
This thesis aims to propose and validate an innovative, fully open-source framework capable of performing multiscale analysis for the assessment of local wind flows within the urban fabric. Each part of the framework is ...
(English) Machine Learning (ML) systems allow the efficient implementation of functionalities that can be hard to program by traditional software due to the high spectrum of inputs that hinder the definition of a specific ...
Sustainability of irrigated agriculture is a growing concern in the Baix Llobregat area. Although irrigated land accounts for a substantial proportion of food supply to the local market, it has been, and still is increasingly ...
(English) When analyzing structures for seismic design and performance assessment purposes, it has been common to assume that the ground motions or their equivalent representations correspond to that of the free-field ...
The present Thesis deals with the solar disinfection of synthetic secondary effluent under laboratory controlled conditions, focusing on the post-irradiation bacterial regrowth. The influence of various internal and external ...
With the issue of the rise of anthropogenic CO2, global warming and rise of the primary energy demand, strong measures for the energy transition and the diversification with renewables and existing fossil-based infrastructure ...
Optical quantum memories (QMs) are one of the fundamental building blocks in quantum information science (QIS). They might find important use in quantum communication and computation applications. Rare-earth ions (REIs) ...
This thesis focuses on the thermodynamic and crystallographic characterization of C60 solvates formed with small organic molecules (CBr2(CH3)2, CBr2Cl2, CBr2H2, CBrCl2H and CBrClH2) Chapter I provides an introduction ...
Optical solitons provide unique opportunities for the control of light‐bylight. Today, the field of soliton formation in natural materials is mature, as the main properties of the possible soliton states are well understood. ...
(English) Colloidal semiconductors quantum dots (CQDs) have emerged as a promising solutionprocessed gain material that can be engineered via low-cost and scalable chemical techniques. Owing to quantum confinement, their ...
El argumento fundamental de esta tesis es el estudio de la solvatación iónica por medio de cálculos con ordenador. Tres lineas de investigación han sido seguidas:<br/>(i) Solvatación y mobilidad ionica. Las características ...
