The present thesis has three major thrusts: the first thrust presents a broad investigation of asymptotic binary hypothesis testing, when each hypothesis represents asymptotically many independent instances of a quantum ...
This thesis addresses sustainability transitions in the built environment, from buildings to the metropolitan scale, while ranging from low carbon development to the multidimensional challenges currently faced by cities. ...
Physics has two main ambitions: to predict and to understand. Indeed, physics aims for the prediction of all natural phenomena. Prediction entails modeling the correlation between an action, the input, and what is subsequently ...
Genomic datasets are fundamental to broaden our understanding of human biology in the context of health and disease. However, the high-dimensional nature of gene expression and other molecular traits poses a challenge when ...
Since the i* framework emerged in the requirements engineering community in the mid-90s, different research groups have proposed variations to the modelling language proposed in the i* framework (¿the i* language¿). There ...
(English) In lithium-ion batteries, depending on the requirements, many individual cells are connected in series and parallel. Despite very similar individual cell parameters after production, they can develop differently ...
According to architecture, lighting design involves a high sensitivity keep with the intended use of each project. One of the key issues in defining the indoor environment is the optima! planning of daylight, providing ...
This thesis presents a technology that has been called the Full Time-Domain Electromagnetic Interference measurement systems and its applications. Full TDEMI measurement systems are an implementation of an FFT-based receiver ...
It is well known that in civil engineering structures are designed so that they remain,whenever possible, in an elastic regime and with their mechanical properties intact. The truth isthat in reality there are uncertainties ...
According to a study of the European Commission, approximately one million hips are replaced by prostheses worldwide every year. The interaction of the human body with foreign materials that are subjected to alternating ...
Esta tesis queda enmarcada en el ámbito de los biomateriales metálicos, concretamente en superficies de titanio desarrolladas para la regeneración ósea. Las aplicaciones más habituales del titanio como biomaterial son los ...
Despite being biocompatible and with adequate mechanical properties for application as a bone replacement material, titanium lacks osteoinductive capacity, i.e. it supports new bone growth on its surface but does not foster ...
Cobalt-chromium (CoCr) alloys are widely used as biomaterials for coronary stents due to their excellent mechanical properties, biocompatibility and corrosion resistance. However, these materials are bioinert, retarding ...
The fundamental objective of this thesis is to delve into the process of generating the shape of tensioned membrane structures, from the conjunction of the theoretical foundations presented and practical experimentation, ...
This thesis is focused on the search of alternatives to fungicides conventionally used in the tanning industry. These chemicals must be effective against a large number of fungi less toxic, more environmentally friendly ...
La tesis estudia la relevancia del concepto de furor divino en la creación plástica clásica muestra como el furor divino concepto que proviene del campo de la poética pasa de tener un origen externo a uno interno bajo ...
In the infrared, photodetectors are the key components in a wide-variety of applications such as thermal imaging, remote sensing, spectroscopy with newer technologies added to the list such as LiDaR and deep tissue imaging. ...
El reconeixement automàtic del locutor és la utilització d’una màquina per identificar un individu a partir de d’un missatge parlat. Recentment, aquesta tecnologia ha experimentat un increment en l’ús de diverses aplicacions ...
Las actitudes, el conocimiento y las acciones generalmente se basan en muestras. Algunos basan sus conclusiones en muestras pequeñas y pocas veces toman en cuenta la magnitud de lo que se desconoce. Generalmente se carece ...
