Bridging the gap between the predicted and actual energy performance of buildings is necessary to increase the energy performance of existing buildings and achieve the European Union’s energy efficiency targets in the “2030 ...
López Ruiz, Luis Alberto (Data de defensa: 2021-12-02)
Construction and demolition waste (CDW) is a major environmental concern that requires immediate attention. The large volumes of CDW produced and its associated environmental effects have led to explore new alternatives ...
Bové Tous, Oriol (Data de defensa: 2022-02-04)
Pallet racking systems are structures intended to store products. Their proper structural design is of paramount importance as its collapse can lead to significant economic losses and even human. This type of structures ...
Morganti, Teresa Maria (Data de defensa: 2016-07-27)
Sponges play important roles in the functioning of marine ecosystem in which they are abundant. These roles range from stabilizers of substrate, to acting as major link between benthic and pelagic realms by filtering large ...
Morillo Carbonell, Pablo (Data de defensa: 2020-01-16)
The illegal on-street parking is one of the traffic elements that has more effect in urban environments provoking the presence of bottlenecks in the different roads and, consequently, facilitating the appearance of congestion. ...
De Simone, Silvia (Data de defensa: 2017-03-29)
Micro-seismicity, and especially felt seismicity, induced by Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) operations is a matter of scientific interest, not only because of the related risks and concerns, but also because the ...
Lian, Zengzeng (Data de defensa: 2015-12-14)
A large number of underground works are under construction in several big cities around the world (London, Paris, Amsterdam, Beijing, Shanghai, Chicago, Caracas, Mexico D.F., and Riad, for instance): railway tunnels, water ...
Villar Salinas, Sergio (Data de defensa: 2023-12-15)
(English) Axial forces in columns of moment-resisting frames (MRF) have a paramount role for the seismic performance of these structural systems. Nonetheless, there are significant gaps in the literature entailing the ...
López-Dóriga Sandoval, Uxía (Data de defensa: 2020-12-18)
Coastal areas concentrate very high socio-economic and natural values, which will be highly threatened by climate change, particularly by sea-level rise (SLR). Given the intrinsic characteristics of this zone, appropriate ...
Garola, Àlvar (Data de defensa: 2019-01-22)
This doctoral thesis analyzes the impact of the creation and implementation of transport infrastructures, specifically high-capacity road axes, on the territory and the welfare of the population with a marginal approach: ...
Monforte Vila, Lluís (Data de defensa: 2018-11-05)
This thesis develops a numerical technique in which the Particle Finite Element method is applied to simulate solid intrusion problems in Geotechnical Engineering. The thesis describes the numerical development work that ...
Sossa Arancibia, Viviana Alejandra (Data de defensa: 2021-03-11)
This thesis aims to studythe capacities and limitations of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to support inspection, assessment, maintenance and rehabilitation tasks, helping to earlydetection and evaluation ofpathologies in ...
Lops, Camilla (Data de defensa: 2020-12-15)
European building stock is characterised by low energy efficiency and high structural vulnerability with respect to earthquakes, especially in seismic prone areas like Italy. In fact, the vast majority of buildings has ...
Leon Medina, Jersson Xavier (Data de defensa: 2023-10-06)
(English) In the last years, the condition monitoring of structures has evolved and improved using technologies such as artificial intelligence, sensor networks, and industry 4.0 because of the multiple advantages these ...
Borralleras Mas, Pere (Data de defensa: 2019-11-15)
The presence of clays in the sands used for concrete production interferes with the development of the fluidity of concrete, producing an instantaneous slump loss just after batching and the premature loss of fluidity. ...
Peñalver Rojo, Domingo (Data de defensa: 2019-05-31)
Investments in major transport infrastructure projects involve a significant mobilisation of economic resources both for construction and operation. In these projects, to assess the efficiency of the resources used, ...
Segura Domingo, Jorge (Data de defensa: 2020-12-22)
Masonry has been used for millennia to build all sort of constructions. As a result, a significant part of the building stock around the world is made of masonry. In the need of structural assessment, structural analysis ...
Solé Marí, Guillem (Data de defensa: 2020-03-13)
Fluid flow, solute transport, and chemical reactions in porous media are highly relevant for multiple applications and in several fields of knowledge. Aquifers are a typical example of porous media, but many others exist, ...
Palau Berastegui, Rosa Maria (Data de defensa: 2021-09-23)
