Gomis Sánchez, Jordi (Date of defense: 2012-07-10)
Throughout history, man has had the need to communicate through drawings, and drawing has evolved as another language. The technical aspect of drawing has sought to represent objects as faithfully as possible, both insofar ...
Camacho Navarro, Jhonatan (Date of defense: 2019-07-15)
This thesis presents the results of applying a statistical hybrid approach for structural health monitoring using piezo actuating signals. Where, by combining statistical processing based on Principal Component Analysis ...
Olm Serra, Marc (Date of defense: 2019-02-18)
The main object of study of this thesis is the development of scalable and robust solvers based on domain decomposition (DD) methods for the linear systems arising from the finite element (FE) discretization of transient ...
Larriva Villarreal, Hernán Javier (Date of defense: 2023-11-06)
(English) Turbidity currents in reservoirs are of strong scientific interest because they can be responsible for the contribution of large amounts of fine sediments that can cause early sediment filling. The case study ...
Uggetti, Enrica (Date of defense: 2011-09-30)
During the last years, the implementation of new Wastewater Treatment Plants has lead to a significant increase of sludge production. As a response, sludge valorisation in agriculture is the preferred option nowadays, ...
Cante Terán, Juan Carlos (Date of defense: 1995-07-19)
En esta tesis se presenta un modelo numérico para simular la fase de compactación de pulvimateriales y su implementación en ordenadores de cálculo paralelo, con el ánimo de facilitar y mejorar el diseño de los procesos de ...
Boix Cots, David (Date of defense: 2023-12-15)
(English) This doctoral thesis addresses one of the most significant challenges facing the Spanish administration: the efficient selection and management of public investments. To achieve this goal, the 'Public Investment ...
Germano, Nicola (Date of defense: 2021-12-14)
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 ...
Martí Cardona, Belén (Date of defense: 2014-05-14)
The Doñana wetlands, in Southwest Spain, undergo yearly cycles of inundation in fall and drying out during the spring season. As any wetland ecosystem, Doñana depends critically on its water resources. Important monitoring ...
Planas Badenas, Ramon (Date of defense: 2013-11-25)
Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is the physics branch that studies electrically conducting fluids under external magnetic fields. This thesis deals with the numerical approximation using stabilized finite element methods of two ...
Reyes Sotomayor, Ricardo (Date of defense: 2020-03-23)
This thesis presents the a stabilized projection-based Reduced Order Model (ROM) formulation in low speed fluid flows using a Variational Multi-Scale (VMS) approach. To develop this formulation we use a Finite Element (FE) ...
Cavaliere, Fabiola (Date of defense: 2022-04-06)
In order to be worldwide competitive, the automotive industry is constantly challenged to produce higher quality vehicles in the shortest time possible and with the minimum costs of production. Most of the problems with ...
Martín Alcalde, Enrique (Date of defense: 2014-07-22)
The process of containerization and its continuous development involves changes and technological innovations in containerships and maritime container terminals. In the current era of "gigantism", despite existing fleet ...
Quiroga Méndez, Jabid E. (Date of defense: 2018-06-29)
This thesis presents some approaches for guided wave based stress monitoring as a part of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). SHM systems include different levels, from damage detection to prognosis, however, this work is ...
Hamad Mohamed, Khaled M. A. (Date of defense: 2015-12-14)
Experimental study was conducted to analyze the physical flow turbulence and sediment distribution with submerged vane. The objectives behind the investigation were verified and compare results with the Odgaard theory, ...
Lerch, Markus (Date of defense: 2020-03-09)
The offshore wind sector has grown significantly during the last decades driven by the increasing demand for clean energy and to reach defined energy targets based on renewable energies. As the wind speeds tend to be faster ...
Vilarrasa Riaño, Víctor (Date of defense: 2012-07-20)
Los procesos termo-hidro-mecánicos relacionados con el almacenamiento geológico de carbono deben ser entendidos y cuantificados para demostrar a la opinión pública de que la inyección de dióxido de carbono (CO2) es segura. ...
Sánchez Cordero, Esteban (Date of defense: 2019-05-31)
This research project focuses on the analysis and prediction of flow structures and sediment transport process in open channels by using three-dimensional numerical models. The numerical study was performed using the ...
Castañar Pérez, Inocencio (Date of defense: 2023-07-24)
(English) Topology optimization of incompressible structures, in which the loads on the structure come from the stresses exerted by a surrounding fluid, is a highly complex problem. This work presents a compilation of the ...
Tosi, Riccardo (Date of defense: 2021-12-21)
