Active power sharing and frequency regulation in inverter-based islanded microgrids subject to clock drifts, damage in power links and loss of communications

Rosero Chandi, Carlos Xavier (Date of defense: 2020-02-06)

Microgrids (MGs) are small-scale power systems containing storage elements, loads and distributed generators that are interfaced with the electric network via power electronic inverters. When an MG is in islanded mode, its ...

Biomimetic hydrogels for in situ bone tissue engineering : nature-inspired crosslinking methods as a tool to tune scaffold physical properties

Sánchez Ferrero, Aitor (Date of defense: 2015-12-18)

The global incidence of bone fractures, and subsequently that of non-healing ones, is expected to rise in the coming decades, mostly due to an increased risk of age-related conditions. Currently, the biomaterials field is ...

Cell derived-extracellular matrix scaffolds with polylactic acid microcarriers for tissue engineering and cell therapy

Cano Torres, Irene (Date of defense: 2019-04-05)

Organ shortage for transplantation and the need for new therapies for the treatment of tissular damages have driven the development of an exciting field in research, called tissue engineering (TE). Its potential entails ...

Development of antibacterial coatings for titanium dental implants based on different strategies

Godoy Gallardo, Maria (Date of defense: 2015-04-21)

Tanto el titanio como sus aleaciones son usados como biomateriales por sus excelentes propiedades mecánicas, biocompatibilidad y resistencia a la corrosión. Sin embargo, el fracaso a medio y largo plazo de los implantes ...

Development of in vitro and in vivo Bioreactors for Bone Tissue Engineering

Koch, Martin Andreas (Date of defense: 2010-04-23)

Grandes defectos óseos constituyen un reto para el campo clínico, ya que no puede ser reparado por el propio organismo, sino que requieren la implantación de injertos de hueso adecuado. Para superar los inconvenientes de ...

Dynamic behavior of type IV collagen at cell-biomaterial interface

Coelho, Nuno Miranda (Date of defense: 2012-05-25)

The initial molecular events that take place at biomaterials interface mimic to a certain extent the natural interaction of cells with the extracellular matrix (ECM). In this thesis we describe the fate of adsorbed type ...
