Analysis and modeling spatiotemporal events on complex spatial regions
Spatial statistics is traditionally based on stationary models like Matérn fields. However, applying stationary models to complex spatial regions having physical barriers like islands or coastal areas can result in ...
Del censal al debitori: continuïtats i transformacions en el crèdit hipotecari català en l’etapa final de l’Antic Règim (regions de Barcelona i Girona, 1768-1840)
The objective of this report is to study causes and consequences of substituting annuity for obligation in the final period of the Ancient Regime in Catalonia (1768-1840), affording special attention to the regions of ...
Computational strategies for understanding the molecular basis of biochemical and biocatalytic processes
Enzymes are molecules that play a crucial role in many biological and chemical processes. To understand how they work and how to design enzymes with specific functions, it is important to study their molecular structure ...
Imaginación visual: nuevo paradigma en interfaces cerebro-máquina
This doctoral thesis focuses on the study of the use of visual imagery for the construction of brain-computer interfaces (BCI) non-invasive. Although the construction of brain-computer interfaces is already is a reality, ...
Estudi de l’alliberació del calci intracel·lular en cardiomiòcits derivats de iPSC de pacients amb taquicàrdia ventricular polimòrfica catecolaminèrgica (CPVT)
In a small region of the island of Gran Canaria, 11 cases of sudden cardiac death (SCD) were registered in emotional or physical stress situations in young individuals between 1994 and 2007 in four seemingly unrelated ...
Perspectiva diacrónica de la prefijación locativa intermedia del español
This research describes the evolution that the prefix inter has undergone from Latin to current Spanish, while focusing on the formation models of the derivatives generated by the prefix and on its meaning. Thus, we can ...
New approaches for the study and treatment of aggressive cancers
Although there are therapies for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) and epidermal growth factor-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (EGFRm NSCLC), these two subtypes of cancer are very aggressive, and most patients develop ...
Caracterización mediante métodos inversos numéricos y correlación digital de imágenes de las propiedades elásticas en el plano de materiales compuestos laminados producidos con fabricación aditiva
In recent years, additive manufacturing technologies (3D printing) have been introduced in different fields, such as locomotion and bioengineering, among others. Extrusion by Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) or Fused ...
Rhodium-catalyzed cyclization reactions of 1,5-bisallenes involving alkenes and alkynes: experimental and theoretical studies
The development of novel catalytic methodologies involving the formation of carbon – carbon/heteroatom bonds to produce cyclic systems constitutes a field of great interest in the modern synthetic organic chemistry. Over ...

The present work, based on unpublished documentation such as the Llibre del Collegi de Argenters de Gerona sots invocasio del Glorios St. Aloy, y St. Anastasi of the Biblioteca de Catalunya, focuses on the study of the art ...
The environmental management systems as a tool for integrating the principles of the circular economy within manufacturing firms
This thesis analyses the contribution of Environmental Management Systems (EMS)'s in adopting Circular Economy (CE) principles in manufacturing companies. It explores different aspects such as the reporting and communication ...
Estudio de la regulación génica en el locus SCN5A-SCN10A y su implicación en la etiología del Síndrome de Brugada
Brugada syndrome (SBr) is a cardiac electrical disease associated with a high susceptibility to ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Genetic variants in the coding regions of the SCN5A gene, which encodes for ...
Clinical epidemiology and molecular biology of cutaneous and mucosal melanoma in Girona 1994-2018
In this doctoral thesis, the epidemiology of cutaneous and mucosal melanoma is analyzed, as well as its molecular profile to provide new knowledge on a population basis in the province of Girona. The cancer registry of ...
Implementation of a high-pressure resin transfer molding (HP-RTM) process to increase the production rate of structural composites and characterization of sustainable vitrimer-matrix high-performance composites
Transport industry, especially automotive, is one of the most pollutant in the world. Current environmental concerns demand original equipment manufacturers (OEM’s) to reduce the amount of emissions released by their ...
