Development of innovative land applications for ESA's HydroGNSS mission

Peng, Jilun (Date of defense: 2025-10-31)

(English) The research presented in this paper-based dissertation focuses on the development of products for the ESA HydroGNSS mission, including the Level 2 surface inundation algorithm, the exploitation of the coherent ...

Integrating AI with multiphoton autofluorescence-based hyperspectral imaging for enhanced embryo and oocyte analysis

Parra Martínez, Albert (Date of defense: 2025-01-13)

(English) Infertility affects one in seven couples, according to the World Health Organization, and only around 30% of the embryos from in vitro fertilization treatments successfully implant in the uterus and develop to ...

Human-on-the-loop continual learning: data, knowledge and agents for model adaptation

Bravo Rocca, Gusseppe Jesus (Date of defense: 2025-10-27)

(English) How do we effectively adapt a Machine Learning (ML) model when real-world data changes? This seemingly straightforward question underlies one of the most persistent challenges in deploying ML systems in production ...

Evaluating the impact of corporate social responsibility on financial performance, productivity, and critical success factors in the European mining industry

Yousefian, Mohammad (Date of defense: 2025-10-21)

(English) Responsible and ethical business practices have gained prominence, particularly through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Over four decades, CSR disclosure evolved significantly, increasingly appearing in ...

Data-driven patient-specific models supporting decision making with application to atherosclerotic plaque analysis

Gahima, Stephan (Date of defense: 2025-09-26)

(English) This thesis advances finite element-based tools to improve atherosclerosis analysis by addressing current computational limitations. Atherosclerosis, the leading cause of ischaemic heart attacks, imposes a ...

Radar-based techniques for continuous monitoring of soil moisture and vegetation using time series analysis

Mas i Méndez, Mireia (Date of defense: 2025-10-28)

(English) Ongoing changes in climate and weather patterns have emphasized the need for improved observation and understanding of rapid land–atmosphere interactions, particularly those related to the water cycle. This thesis ...

Exploring multi-barrier approaches for impacted urban groundwater reclamation in Sant Adrià del Besòs basin

Abenza Martínez, Misael (Date of defense: 2025-10-24)

(English) This thesis aims to identify and assess the treatment of water sourced from the Sant Adrià del Besòs aquifer using various types of technologies, in accordance with the compliance of the regulations regarding its ...

Supervised and reinforcement learning for extreme adaptive optics with application to exoplanet imaging

Pou Mulet, Bartomeu (Date of defense: 2025-10-06)

(English) This thesis demonstrates that applying a combination of deep learning (DL) models in adaptive optics (AO), each addressing an AO error source, can significantly increase performance, providing telescopes with ...

Theoretical aspects of the interaction of free and tunneling electrons with low-dimensional photonic systems

Wu, Yina (Date of defense: 2025-10-24)

(English) In this thesis, we provided a theoretical description of how focused electron beams interact with low-energy excitations and generate nanoscale light, which is of great interest in the field of nanophotonics. In ...

Post-earthquake functional recovery and resilience of seismically isolated hospitals and large-scale building portfolios

Chavez Aguirre, Jean Piers Nicolas (Date of defense: 2025-10-01)

(English) This dissertation presents a comprehensive contribution to assessing and optimizing the functional resilience of both individual hospital buildings and urban-scale building portfolios. The research addresses ...

Coupled modelling and sustainability assessment of polymeric reinforced soil retaining structures subjected to environmental conditions

Moncada Ramírez, Aníbal Andrés (Date of defense: 2025-10-20)

(English) The focus of this Thesis are reinforced soil structures with polymeric (or geosynthetic) reinforcement elements. These materials are known for their rate-dependent behaviour, that is, time, load, temperature, ...
