As we inhale, the air drawn through our nose undergoes successive accelerations and decelerations as it is turned, split, and recombined before splitting again at the end of the trachea as it enters the ...
Sánchez Baena, Juan (Date of defense: 2020-12-14)
The main goal of this thesis is the computation of ground state properties of quantum many-body systems under Spin Orbit coupling (SOC) interactions out of the ultradilute regime. We present two approaches ...
Amil Marletti, Pablo (Date of defense: 2020-02-11)
This thesis work presents novel methods for the analysis and classification of medical images and, more generally, complex data. First, an unsupervised machine learning method is proposed to order ...
Selim, Hossam (Date of defense: 2020-07-21)
This PhD thesis is devoted to the design, development and implementation of a non-contact hybrid non-destructive testing (NDT) method applied to the analysis of metallic objects that contain embedded ...
Gilabert Navarro, Joan Francesc (Date of defense: 2020-07-22)
The advances in computing power have motivated the hope that computational methods can accelerate the pace of drug discovery pipelines. For this, fast, reliable and user-friendly tools are required. One ...

Sensory neurons use sequences of electrical pulses (known as action potentials or spikes) to encode and transmit information of external temporal stimuli. Neural coding is the research field that studies ...
Lu, Huixia (Date of defense: 2020-09-29)
The present Thesis is devoted to the study of the physical-chemical properties of selected small-molecules (such as amino-acids like tryptophan or hormones like melatonin) and proteins (such as KRAS-4B) ...
Marchena Angos, Miquel (Date of defense: 2020-07-23)
The heart beating is produced by the synchronization of the cardiac cells' contraction. A dysregulation in this mechanism may produce episodes of abnormal heart contraction. The origin of these abnormalities ...
