Clot Razquin, Arnau (Date of defense: 2014-02-20)
This thesis presents a three-dimensional dynamic model of a double-deck circular tunnel embedded in a full-space. The model uses the receptance method to obtain the response of the complete structure from the response of ...
Ordóñez Izquierdo, Víctor Hugo (Date of defense: 2022-09-22)
Electromagnetic vibration energy harvesting is a relatively modern technology that has received relevant attention in the last decade from the research community and industry as a potential complement or alternative to the ...
Liravi, Hassan (Date of defense: 2022-07-29)
This thesis is concerned with the development of efficient and practical numerical methodologies to deal with longitudinally invariant soil-structure interaction problems in elastodynamics. All the approaches appearing in ...
Ghangale, Dhananjay (Date of defense: 2019-07-19)
This thesis presents a methodology for assessing induced ground-borne vibration due to Underground railway infrastructures in the context of an urban environment. The methodology is based on a comprehensive numerical ...
Quintero Riaza, Héctor Fabio (Date of defense: 2006-06-28)
En multitud de aplicaciones, es de interés obtener relaciones de transmisión variables a lo largo de un ciclo de rotación del eslabón conductor. Éstas pueden obtenerse mediante distintos mecanismos, entre ellos los engranajes ...
Noori, Behshad (Date of defense: 2019-07-19)
This dissertation is concerned with investigating the efficiency of dynamic vibration absorbers (DVAs) as measures to mitigate ground-borne vibrations induced by railway traffic in double-deck tunnels. The main topics of ...
Jordi, Lluïsa (Date of defense: 1999-10-14)
La tesi "Contribució a l'estudi de l'acústica dels tubs axisimètrics" és un treball centrat en l'estudi del comportament acústic dels tubs dels instruments musicals de vent amb simetria de revolució en el qual es fa ...
Sanchís Estruch, Ricard (Date of defense: 2019-07-16)
One of the main problems presented due to the defects in the profiles of the railway wheels is the generation of vibrations and noise, and their propagation towards the environment. Defects in wheels, such as surface pitting ...
Reina, Salvatore (Date of defense: 2021-07-09)
This thesis is focused on the enhancement and development of advanced methodologies for the dynamic characterisation of resilient elements used in railway applications. On the one hand, this thesis proposes several ...

La tesi "Estudi del mecanisme d'autoexcitació de bisell en el domini temporal" és un treball de recerca centrat en l'estudi dels instruments musicals que utilitzen el mecanisme de bisell per generar el so. L'objectiu de ...
Acevedo Peñaloza, Carlos Humberto (Date of defense: 2005-06-29)
La tesis ha centrado su estudio en los mecanismos de leva con palpador circular de traslación por ser éstos ampliamente utilizados en la industria actual. Para el diseño de la ley de desplazamiento se utiliza curvas de ...
Zhao, Weiqiang (Date of defense: 2021-07-21)
As a type of renewable energy that can provide rapid response to the requirement of the power grid, hydropower plays a fairly important position in the energy market. In recent years, with the enormous entrance of new ...
García Vilana, Silvia (Date of defense: 2021-02-04)
In this document, a non-linear constitutive model with micro-cracking and irreversibility is proposed for cortical bone of the human rib, extended with a stochastic fracture model, based on acoustic emission. Both models ...
Farré Lladós, Josep (Date of defense: 2015-04-28)
Manufacturers of wind turbines have observed a new phenomenon that appears in high power wind turbines: excessive wear in the teeth located at 0º in the pitch bearing. In order to design more efficient wind turbines, ...
Roca Cazorla, David (Date of defense: 2020-09-07)
The notion of metamaterials as artificially engineered structures designed to obtain specific material properties, typically unachievable in naturally occurring materials, has captured the attention of the scientific and ...
Martín Román, Sara-Regina (Date of defense: 2013-07-15)
The present thesis investigates a passive acoustic method to locate maneuvering aircraft. The method is based on the acoustical Doppler effect, as a particular effect of the signals received by a mesh of spatially distributed ...
Baghaei, Masoud (Date of defense: 2020-07-24)
One of the main advantages of fluidic oscillators is that they do not have moving parts, which brings high reliability whenever being used in real applications. To use these devices in real applications, it is necessary ...
