Mediante el análisis estadístico y utilizando diversas técnicas fractales en esta tesis se estudia el comportamiento temporal y espacial de tres series de réplicas sísmicas ocurridas en el Sur de California, que tuvieron ...
Hawking radiation in NS5 and little string theory
In this thesis we have focused on semi-classical methods that enables us to obtain non-thermal spectra for the vast majority of black holes. This fact is due to taking into account the backreaction of the metric, when the ...
Modelling the dynamics of large scale shoreline sand waves
Shoreline sand waves are shoreline undulations with a length scale of several kilometres and a time scale of years to decades. They occur on many coasts, migrating in the direction of the dominant littoral drift and they ...

Bubble and droplet flow phenomena at different gravity levels
Two-phase flows are encountered in a wide range of applications both on-ground and in space. The dynamics of such flows in the absence of gravity is completely different from that in normal gravity due to the absence of ...
Nonlinear frequency conversion under general phase mismatched condition: the role of phase locking and random nonlinear domains
In the field of second harmonic (SH) generation most studies have been concerned with maximizing conversion efficiencies, generally achievable at the phase matching (PM) condition. Outside of the PM the conversion efficiency ...
Respuesta extrínseca y comportamiento no lineal en materiales cerámicos piezoeléctricos
The study of the elastic, dielectric and piezoelectric non-linear behavior in PZT-based and KNN-based piezoelectric ceramics represent the main goal of this work. Both systems present a perovskite-like structure. Several ...
