Mirsalehi, Sajjad (Data de defensa: 2018-04-30)
This research focusses on an experimental investigation on the hydro-mechanical behaviour of binary ‘all-one’ mixtures. These mixtures –originated from the excavation of selected materials during earthwork constructions– ...
Mesa Alcantara, Arisleidy (Data de defensa: 2021-07-02)
The hydro-mechanical behaviour of MX80 bentonite pellet-based mixture (80% high-density pellets in dry mass and crushed granular powder) has been explored in this thesis within the context of the French ‘Vertical Sealing ...
Trabucchi, Michela (Data de defensa: 2021-05-11)
The characterization of evaporitic aquifers for a better understanding of hydrodynamics and geochemical processes is of great importance, especially in environments where both the sustainability of unique ecosystems and ...
Serrano Juan, Alejandro (Data de defensa: 2016-07-22)
The competition for space in urban areas due to an exponential growth of population makes derground engineering plays a crucial role in the development of cities. Urban underground infrastructures deal with variables such ...
Marazuela Calvo, Miguel Ángel (Data de defensa: 2020-07-03)
This thesis aims to advance the knowledge of the hydrogeological functioning of salt flats in order to achieve a sustainable management of their mineral resources and ecosystems. Salt flats are a major source of Li, B, I, ...
Rorato, Riccardo (Data de defensa: 2019-11-08)
The shape of particles is known to play an important role in soil behaviour, with significant effects of engineering responses. Investigating how the shape of particles can be measured and quantified is therefore considered ...
Gaspar i Fàbregas, Kàtia (Data de defensa: 2018-06-27)
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)
