This thesis studies the professional profile of Primary School music teachers, in the framework of the Catalan educational system and the construction of the Higher Education European Area (HEEA), focusing on the study of ...
Simultaneous localization and mapping using single cluster probability hypothesis density filters
The majority of research in feature-based SLAM builds on the legacy of foundational work using the EKF, a single-object estimation technique. Because feature-based SLAM is an inherently multi-object problem, this has led ...
Web-based application for medical imaging management
Prostate and breast cancer are the most common cause of cancers in men and women, respectively. Medical imaging plays an important role in breast and prostate cancer detection and evaluation. Then to prove that our web-based ...
Analysis and optimization of composite stringers
The use of the stiffened panels in the aircraft/aeronautical industry has been growing in the last decades. On the other hand, the exponential growth in the use of composite materials in the last years has had a ...
Development of new reusable materials based on Ru complexes with catalytic activity for olefin epoxidation and nitrile hydration
In this thesis we present the synthesis and characterization of different types of ruthenium complexes containing N-donor ligands together with dmso, Cl and H2O ligands, along with their complete characterization through ...
Green citites and green urban economy; contributions from case studies for a necessary low-carbon future
City Governments engaged in climate change mitigation and adaptation face the multiple challenge of self-commitment, the need to involve their communities and stakeholders, and top-down and multi-scalar processes out of ...
Socioeconomic status determines floristic patterns in suburban domestic gardens: implications for water use and alien plant dispersal in the Mediterranean context
The recent growth of low-density urban developments in the Mediterranean coast has led to an increase in the number of private domestic gardens. This thesis examines the flora, features and management practices of 258 ...
Intermittency of turbulence in natural waters: patchiness in the thermocline of a lake under low winds and small-scale intermittency in the bottom boundary layer of a tidal flow
Turbulence intermittency influences so many processes in natural waters on a wide range of scales. This work analyzes intermittency, both internal and external, by considering two cases: the thermocline of a small lake ...
Technologies to determine quality parameters and the effect of high pressure processing on dry-cured ham
The research for new technologies able to determine quality parameters as well as study the effect of High Pressure Processing (HPP) on dry-cured ham is of scientific interest because the information obtained is useful for ...
Los sistemas de información en el sector hotelero: un modelo de éxito
This thesis includes a review of how the information technology is used at present in the hotels, as well as the functionality expected from the hotels information systems. We compare these systems characteristics with ...
La innovación mercadotécnica en el aeropuerto regional. Un estudio de casos
The objective of this thesis is to empirically study the application, benefits, challenges and consequences of the marketing innovations in the regional airports of Girona-Costa Brava, Lleida-Alguaire, Reus and ...
Construyendo la representación social de la diversidad afectivo-sexual
The aim of this work is to understand the social representation sexual-affective diversity (DAS) for later use in educational settings. We used the following techniques: semi-structured individual interview (n = 8), free ...
Structure and reactivity of endohedral (metallo)fullerenes
It all started in 1985, when Kroto, Smalley and Curl discovered by serendipity a new carbon allotrope. They synthesized for the first time the C60 molecule, and named it as ”Buckminsterfullerene”, because of the similarity ...
La teoria de la democràcia en l'Escola de Frankfurt: del projecte deliberatiu de Jürgen Habermas a l'eticitat democràtica d'Axel Honneth
Horkheimer and Adorno laid the foundations of Critical Theory from three basic disciplines: economics, psychology and studies around the culture. The second generation of Frankfurtians authors (Habermas) clearly prioritizes ...

Analysis of cooperation and electron delocalization in intermolecular hydrogen bonds
This thesis presents different studies on hydrogen bonds that occur between two molecules. It is because of the biological importance of DNA that the base pairs, and other compounds with similar hydrogen bonds as these ...
Bioremediation of nitrate-polluted groundwater using bioelectrochemical systems
The presence of nitrates (NO3-) in groundwater is a worldwide concern. The high energy demand and environmental impact of available technologies requires investigating new technologies. This thesis was focused on investigating ...
Perceptual information-theoretic measures for viewpoint selection and object recognition
Viewpoint selection has been an emerging area in computer graphics for some years, and it is now getting maturity with applications in fields such as scene navigation, volume visualization, object recognition, mesh ...
Linking river sediment physical properties to biofilm biomass and activity
River sediments are composed by a variety of grain sizes which determine their permeability and biogeochemistry. The aim of this thesis was to test whether differences in river sediment physical characteristics generate ...
