Larese de Tetto, Antonia (Fecha de defensa: 2012-07-05)
Rockfill dams are nowadays often preferred over concrete dams because of their economic advantages, their flexible design and thank to the great advance achieved in geosciences and geomechanics. ...
Cornejo Velázquez, Alejandro (Fecha de defensa: 2020-12-21)
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 ...
Puigferrat Pérez, Albert (Fecha de defensa: 2021-07-20)
The objective of the thesis is to develop a numerical tool to describe how the concentration of one or more substances distributed in a fluid environment changes under the effect of three transport ...
Labra, C. A. (Carlos Andrés) (Fecha de defensa: 2012-07-19)
Modelling of granular materials, soils and rocks has been a challenging topic of investigation for decades. Classical continuum mechanics has been used to idealize soils and rocks, and numerical solution ...
Zorrilla Martínez, Rubén (Fecha de defensa: 2020-09-21)
This thesis develops a numerical tool (the Virtual Wind Tunnel, VWT) for the resolution of problems involving fluid flow around structures. Due to the limitations that traditional methods may have in ...
Cardoso Nungaray, Víctor Eduardo (Fecha de defensa: 2018-04-27)
This thesis presents a proposal to simulate mechanics and dynamics of brittle fracture. A variational formulation is used to describe Lagrangian mechanics, by minimizing the difference between potential ...
Mataix Ferrándiz, Vicente (Fecha de defensa: 2020-09-03)
The doctoral thesis "Innovative mathematical and numerical models for studying the deformation of shells during industrial forming processes with the Finite Element Method" aims to contribute to the ...
Lafontaine, Nelson M. (Fecha de defensa: 2016-01-18)
The stated goal of this work is to develop a numerical explicit finite element method able to effectively address the strain localization process, discrete fracture and fragmentation process in ...
Pouplana, I. de (Ignasi de) (Fecha de defensa: 2018-01-25)
The objective of this thesis is the derivation and implementation of a robust Finite Element formulation for the solution of solid-pore fluid coupled problems in multi-fractured porous media. A coupled ...
Casas González, Guillermo (Fecha de defensa: 2018-10-30)
In this work we study the numerical simulation of particle-laden fluids, with a focus on Newtonian fluids and spherical, rigid particles. We are thus dealing with a multi-phase (more precisely, a ...
