Lakshmikantha, M.R. (Data de defensa: 2009-06-12)
The thesis focuses on the experimental and theoretical aspects of the process of cracking in drying soils. The results and conclusions were drawn from an exhaustive experimental campaign characterised ...
Mension i Camps, Josep (Data de defensa: 2019-09-10)
High-level service bus systems, even though in many different forms and local particularities, have been spread out around the globe over the last decades, driven by the administration and the transport ...
Ziaei-Rad, Vahid (Data de defensa: 2016-05-02)
The phase field method has proven to be an important tool in computational fracture mechanics in that it does not require complicated crack tracking and is able to predict crack nucleation and branching. ...
Delgadillo Ayala, Rick Milton (Data de defensa: 2022-03-23)
In recent years the scientific community has been developing new techniques in structural health monitoring (SHM) to identify the damages in civil structures specially in bridges. The bridge health ...
Refachinho de Campos, Paulo Roberto (Data de defensa: 2022-09-27)
(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 ...
Germano, Nicola (Data de defensa: 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 ...
Garolera Vinent, Daniel (Data de defensa: 2017-09-18)
This thesis describes the extension of the Finite Element Method with zero-thickness interface elements (FEM+z) to 3D, large and complex problems in geomaterials, with special interest in petroleum ...
Trapote Barreira, Ana (Data de defensa: 2015-01-19)
The use of concrete in disposal facilities to store low- and intermediate-level nuclear waste requires that the durability of this material is optimal for the lifetime of these repositories. One of the ...
Díaz Loaiza, Manuel Andrés (Data de defensa: 2015-11-20)
Floods and Drought are some of the most catastrophic natural disasters for humanity, averaging 1 to 5 billion dollar of annually damage for flood events and 6 to 8 billion dollars respectively for drought ...
Giorgiani, Giorgio (Data de defensa: 2013-04-02)
This PhD thesis proposes a p-adaptive technique for the Hybridizable Discontinuous Galerkin method (HDG). The HDG method is a novel discontinuous Galerkin method (DG) with interesting characteristics. ...
