Cylindrical microplane model for fiber reinforced polymer composites
(English) Fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) are the most used composite materials in many applications, from broom handle to the main structure of advanced aircraft. Despite the enormous research done on these materials, ...
Theoretical and experimental investigation on the visible-light controlled functional properties in charged domain wall ferroelectrics
(English) Optical control of ferroelectric properties has been attracted a growing interest as an alternative to the conventional control by applied electric fields. However, the major drawback for achieving an effective ...
Understanding secondary emission processes and beam matter interactions for optimization of diagnostic wire grid system in particle accelerators : thermal modeling for beam power limits calculation
(English) Thin targets, in form of foils, stripes or wires, are widely used in beam instrumentation to measure various beam parameters, such as intensity, position and size. All these monitors can differ in geometry and ...
Enhanced air traffic flow and capacity management under trajectory based operations considering traffic complexity
(English) The Air Traffic Flow and Capacity Management (ATFCM) aims at maintaining the forecast traffic demand below the estimated capacity in airports and airspace sectors. The purpose is to maintain the workload of the ...
Galileo broadcast ephemeris and clock errors, and observed fault probabilities for ARAIM
(English) The characterization of Clock and Ephemeris error of the Global Navigation Satellite Systems is a key element to validate the assumptions for the integrity analysis of GNSS Safety of Life (SoL) applications. ...
Collective motion and collective decision-making in animal groups : from scholling fish to swarming robots
(English) Collective behavior in animals is ubiquitous in nature. It emerges from the self-organization of interacting individuals within a group. What makes collective behavior so interesting is that the behavior of the ...
High-fidelity numerical simulations of reacting flows with tabulated chemistry
(English) In the transition to net-zero carbon emission technologies, turbulent combustion is expected to retain an important role in various applications. In particular, the aviation industry is projected to widely adapt ...
Contributions to high accuracy snapshot GNSS positioning
(English) Snapshot positioning is the technique to determine the position of a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver using only a very brief interval of the received satellite signal. In recent years, this ...
Atomistic study of slip transfer in BCC metals
(English) The mechanical properties of structural materials, which are naturally polycrystalline, is defined by a number of physical processes that take place at different time and space scales. On several of those processes, ...
Machine learning for aircraft trajectory prediction: a solution for pre-tactical air traffic flow management
(English) The goal of air traffic flow and capacity management (ATFCM) is to ensure that airport and airspace capacity meet traffic demand while optimising traffic flows to avoid exceeding the available capacity when it ...
Development and interactions of surfzone morphological patterns
A variety of morphodynamic patterns are typically present in the nearshore zone of sandy beaches that develop due to the interactions between waves, currents and the morphology. The most common are one or several nearshore ...
Caracterització optoelectrònica de materials bidimensionals a altes freqüencies
Two-dimensional materials have a lot of applications in the electronic and photonic device design field, especially when they need to be flexible and transparent. In particular, high frequency applications, above 100MHz, ...
Modelling emergent rhythmic activity in the cerebal cortex
The brain, a natural adaptive system, can generate a rich dynamic repertoire of spontaneous activity even in the absence of stimulation. The spatiotemporal pattern of this spontaneous activity is determined by the brain ...
Evaluation of TH multi-scale coupling methods in BEPU analysis
The combined use of thermal-hydraulics system with sub-channel codes (TH-TH coupling) in transient analysis provides an integrated tool with the capability of modelling in detail both the core thermal-hydraulic conditions ...
Sentinel-1 data exploitation for terrain deformation monitoring
Persistent Scatterer interferometry (PSI) is a group of advanced differential interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) techniques used to measure and monitor terrain deformation. Sentinel-1 has improved the data ...
Barocaloric effects at first-order phase transitions
Current refrigeration devices, based on vapour-compression cycles, employ refrigerants such as HFCs, which exhibit a global warming potential a thousand times higher than the one produced by CO2,. Furthermore, the increasing ...
Optimization on industrial problems focussing on multi-player strategies
Algorithms (EA) are useful optimization methods for exploration of the search space, but they usually have slowness problems to exploit and converge to the minimum with accuracy. On the other hand, gradient based methods ...
Network-based ionospheric gradient monitoring to support ground based augmentation systems
The Ground Based Augmentation System (GBAS) is a local-area, airport-based augmentation of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) that provides precision approach guidance for aircraft. It enhances GNSS performance ...
Causal inference and forescasting methods for climate data nalysis
To advance time series forecasting we need to progress on multiple fronts. In this thesis, we develop algorithms to identify causal relations which allow to identify the driving processes containing useful information for ...
