The race for fast and small that drives nowadays society has also reached the field of biosensing. Looking for efficient and cost effective biosensors for applications including screening and treatment monitoring, biomolecular ...
Blood flow and its regulation, as well as hemodynamics in general, are important for the health of tissues and hence the measurement of these quantities has many applications in research and clinical environments. Various ...
Some of the most common decisions to be taken within a logistic systems at an operational level are related to the design of the vehicle routes. Vehicle Routing Problems and Arc Routing Problems are well-known families of ...
There is a growing concern for protection and conservation of coastal ecosystems, which require a proper understanding of ecosystem dynamics and the ability to detect and predict changes in the ecosystem state. For this ...
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted the attention of the scientific community since their discovery in the 90s. They are an excellent material for the development of research fields as diverse as nanomechanics or quantum ...
The thesis is based on the beginning of the creation of Aalto's architectural language where are observed and analyzed some new principles, one step away from his first projects of "Functionalism", "extracted" from a vast ...
When bone regeneration is needed, natural bone grafts are widely used. They are the best option since they present the same composition to that of bone, contain living cells with osteogenic potential, growth factors that ...
The present thesis focuses on the promising semiconductor material kesterite, Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4, known as CZTS(e), which is used in the second generation of solar cells, generally known as thin film photovoltaics (PV). This ...
Photons travelling through free space do not interact with each other. This characteristic makes them perfect candidates to carry quantum information over long distances. On the other hand, processing the information they ...
Identifying hazards is fundamental for ensuring the safe design and operation of a system in process plants and other facilities. Several techniques are available to identify hazardous situations, all of which require their ...
(English) This work presents a new updated reference Lagrangian Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) algorithm for the analysis of large deformation by introducing a novel system of first order conservation laws. Both ...
Satellite communication will play a central role towards fulfilling next generation 5G communication requirements. As a matter of fact, anytime-anywhere connectivity cannot be conceived without the presence of the satellite ...
Nowadays, Fiber-to-the-Home is one of the most promising solutions to provide broadband services in access networks. However, the fiber is inefficiently used as most of the deployed systems are still based on Time Division ...
Overlay networks are a technique to build a new network on top of an existing one. They are a key tool to add functionality to existing networks, and are used in different layers of the Internet stack for a wide variety ...
In recent decades, the industry of communications has acquired huge significance, and nowadays constitutes an essential tool for the society information. Thus, the exponential growth in demand of broadband services and ...
This thesis develops a study of two important aspects of the construction companies, first known as are the construction companies inside, organization and functional structure and the second how is the level of acquisition ...
The purpose of this research was to determine the level of reading comprehension and mental representation in sixth grade students in urban public and private schools in the District of Ponce, Puerto Rico. Sociodemographic ...
La tesis que aquí se expone gira en torno a la cuestión de la construcción de la realidad. En particular, en el ámbito de la ingeniería, esta construcción tiene que ver con sistemas artificiales que emergen como realidades ...
The main goal of this thesis is to investigate the formation of nocturnal coastal fronts (hereafter CF) in the Mediterranean basin producing nocturnal offshore precipitation near the coastline. After sunset the cooled ...
(English) To simulate unsteady phenomena on complex moving geometry, computational scientists and engineers have been interested in unstructured space-time discretizations. These space-time discretizations aim to overcome ...
