Salazar Guiral, Guillem (Data de defensa: 2019-02-15)
The dark ocean contains about 70% of the ocean’s microbial cells and 60% of its heterotrophic activity, which is mainly fueled by the flux of organic particles produced in the surface ocean and exported to the bathypelagic ...
Elkherbawy, Ahmed Abdelbasset (Data de defensa: 2019-10-22)
Lean Construction is regarded as an innovative approach of management for various types of projects in the field of construction. As much as it is currently applied in some countries, its expansion is inevitable, for better ...
Blanca Alcubilla, Gonzalo (Data de defensa: 2021-11-26)
Air transport, in 2018, was the means of transport chosen by 8.8 billion people around the world. This is a sector that expected continued passenger growth in the following years, but due to the current effects of the ...
Fernández-Pedrera Balsells, Marta (Data de defensa: 2022-05-24)
This thesis analyses the relationships between hydrodynamics (and their forcings) and biological variables in Fangar Bay based on in situ observations, numerical models and satellite data. Fangar Bay is a relatively small, ...
Bělohlav, Vojtěch (Data de defensa: 2021-10-20)
Due to the large volume of the processed medium in pilot or industrial cultivation systems, it is difficult to illuminate the entire layer of the culture medium, which results in the formation of dark zones. Due to ...
Toprak, Erdem (Data de defensa: 2018-05-02)
The main objective of this thesis is to achieve an improved understanding of the thermo-hydro-mechanical processes and material properties that affect how the gaps and canister) behave during and after installation in the ...
Vila Pérez, Jordi (Data de defensa: 2021-02-10)
The aerospace community is challenged as of today for being able to manage accurate overnight computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of compressible flow problems. Well-established CFD solvers based on second-order ...
Salazar González, Fernando (Data de defensa: 2017-02-23)
Dam behaviour is difficult to predict with high accuracy. Numerical models for structural calculation solve the equations of continuum mechanics, but are subject to considerable uncertainty as to the characterisation of ...
Codony, David (Data de defensa: 2021-03-01)
This PhD thesis focuses on the development of mathematical and computational models for flexoelectricity, a relatively new electromechanical coupling that is present in any dielectric at the micron and sub-micron scales. ...
Soler Sagarra, Joaquim (Data de defensa: 2020-07-28)
The study of transport of reacting solute through aquifers is relevant in many engineering fields. Reactive transport (RT) is complex because it consists of two phenomena, solute transport and chemical reactions, both of ...
Marzeddu, Andrea (Data de defensa: 2016-04-19)
The aim of this work is the study of laboratory effects on the measurement of wave impact induced loads on rigid maritime structures. A high number of experiments (more then 4000 using regular wave attacks) have been carried ...
Cabané Cañas, Albert (Data de defensa: 2023-05-17)
(English) Masonry structures are among the most abundant construction typologies in the world, having been commonly built until the second half of the 20th century. The determination of the mechanical properties of these ...
Puig Damians, Ivan (Data de defensa: 2016-07-28)
Soil reinforced retaining wall structures are materiallymore efficientthan competing construction solutions such as gravity and cantilever walls. Nevertheless, the behaviour and interactions between the com ponent materials ...
Comolli, Alessandro (Data de defensa: 2018-06-14)
Solute transport in heterogeneous porous media in general exhibits anomalous behaviors, in the sense that it is characterized by features that cannot be explained in terms of traditional models based on the advection-dispersion ...
Gasser i Rubinat, Marc (Data de defensa: 2018-11-19)
The Mediterranean Outflow Water (MOW) is a dense (¿>1028.5 kg/m3), saline (38.5 g/kg) ocean stream originated in the evaporative Mediterranean basin flowing westward past Espartel Sill as a fast (>1 m/s) and often unstable ...
Arias Araluce, Fausto Arturo (Data de defensa: 2017-05-19)
Stroke is a major cause of death and disability in Spain and in the Western world. It is often caused by an accumulation of atherosclerotic plaques on the walls of carotid arteries. Carotid revascularization may be the ...
Cid Escobar, Daniela (Data de defensa: 2024-06-27)
(English) Sustainable groundwater management in rural areas presents multifaceted challenges stemming from hydrogeological complexities, socio-economic disparities, and governance issues. This thesis aims to provide ...
Dimovska, Sara (Data de defensa: 2023-05-26)
(English) Unreinforced masonry buildings (URM), which prevail in many historic and urban centres, can be considered to be significantly vulnerable to seismic actions due to their peculiar constructive and structural features ...
Gutiérrez Martínez, Raquel (Data de defensa: 2016-05-03)
Research of new sources of bioenergy is nowadays driving attention to microalgae. Cost-effective biomass harvesting poses a challenge for full-scale microalgae production for biofuels. In the context of wastewater treatment ...
Andreotti, Valeria (Data de defensa: 2019-07-12)
In the field of aquaculture, the main microalgae application is animal nutrition, in which they can be used as an unprocessed component, or as dried material for feed preparations. Moreover, microalgae can assimilate the ...
