Gallisai, Rachelle (Data de defensa: 2016-11-04)
The potential capacity of fertilization of surface oceans by atmospheric deposition is of scientific interest. This is especially true in the oligotrophic Mediterranean Sea. Its surface waters are extremely poor in nutrients ...
Cruz García, Rubén (Data de defensa: 2020-07-01)
Arctic sea ice plays a central role in the Earth’s climate. Changes in the sea ice on seasonal-to-interannual timescales impact ecosystems, populations and a growing number of stakeholders. A prerequisite for achieving ...
Goyetche, Tybaud (Data de defensa: 2021-07-19)
Freshwater quality and availability in coastal areas are affected by seawater intrusion into coastal aquifers. While coastal water quality and coastal ecosystems can be significantly affected by pollutants discharged into ...
In 't Veld, Marten (Data de defensa: 2023-11-29)
(English) Air pollutants can be classed as either primary or secondary pollutants. Primary air pollutants are those that are directly emitted into the atmosphere, whereas secondary air pollutants are generated in the ...
Jiménez Torres, Adrià (Data de defensa: 2021-12-22)
The design rules on Reduced Beam Sections (RBS) are covered in the Eurocodes in EN1998-3 as a possible solution to improve rotation capacity of beams for the retrofit of existing structures. The design rules are very similar ...
Bu, Xiangbo (Data de defensa: 2023-11-09)
(English) Recent decades have witnessed varying degrees of damage in underground structures, including instances of structural collapse, reported during post-earthquake hazard investigations. Therefore, the research on ...
Garcia Ramonda, Larisa (Data de defensa: 2020-12-18)
As one of the main historical construction materials, masonry is abundant among the architectural heritage of earthquake-prone areas of the Mediterranean countries. Earthquake mitigation approaches are now focusing on ...
Jiménez Ramirez, Belén (Data de defensa: 2021-01-13)
The seismic vulnerability of urban assets exposed to earthquake hazard represents a growing concern in the engineering field due to the potential risk of collapse for the buildings, and the associated devastating consequences ...
Li, Jun (Data de defensa: 2021-05-31)
This thesis aimed to explore the potential of Se/Zn-enriched bioproducts produced from wastewater treatment processes by eco-technologies (phytoextraction, bioreduction and microalgae-based systems) as Se/Zn feed supplements ...
Oliete Josa, Sergio (Data de defensa: 2023-07-05)
(English) The objective of this research is to delve into the decision-making processes that shape the provision of transport infrastructure. To this end, it analyses the historical evolution of transport networks in ...
Soltanalipour, Milad (Data de defensa: 2023-05-10)
(English) Composite structures are frequently used in the construction of high-rise buildings due to their high ductility and strength. This article-based doctoral thesis has multiple objectives related to different ...
Zou, Xi (Data de defensa: 2018-03-12)
Numerical simulation tools are generally used in all modern engineering fields, especially those having difficulties in performing large number of practical experiments, such as biomechanics. Among the computational methods, ...
Garcia Gil, Livia (Data de defensa: 2019-06-20)
Traditional design procedures of asphalt mixtures are based on volumetric parameters and the compliance with certain mechanical and functional properties, and do not provide minimum requirements in terms of cracking ...
Gibert Armengol, Vicente (Data de defensa: 2016-12-21)
Evidence from progressive deterioration of the urban building stock is well known. This brings about a large social and economic impact due to maintenance costs and associated personal hazards. This thesis explores ways ...
Medina Mijangos, Rubí Alejandra (Data de defensa: 2021-10-05)
Currently, there is a serious problem due to the large generation of municipal solid waste (MSW) due to the high consumption rates of the population and the short time of use of the products. Moreover, there is poor waste ...
Baquero Mosquera, Juan Sebastián (Data de defensa: 2023-06-22)
(English) When analyzing structures for seismic design and performance assessment purposes, it has been common to assume that the ground motions or their equivalent representations correspond to that of the free-field ...
Rodríguez Giner, Caterina (Data de defensa: 2017-09-27)
The oceans are microbial-dominated ecosystems, where protists (single-celled eukaryotes) play fundamental roles performing multiple functions as primary producers, consumers, decomposers as well as trophic linkers in aquatic ...
