Bortolini, Rafaela (Data de defensa: 2019-02-28)
The performance of existing buildings is receiving increased concern due to the need to renovate the aging building stock and provide better quality of life for end users. The conservation state of ...
Caicedo Silva, Manuel Alejandro (Data de defensa: 2017-02-24)
This thesis focuses on the numerical modeling of fracture and its propagation in heterogeneous materials by means of hierarchical multiscale models based on the FE2 method, addressing at the same time, ...
Björk, Johannes (Data de defensa: 2016-06-03)
Microbes form intricate and intimate relationships with most animals and plants, many of which are crucial for host development, health and functioning. Microbe--host symbiotic associations are poorly ...
Elkoro Ugarteburu, Ander (Data de defensa: 2018-10-26)
This thesis discusses the development of a new methodology for 3D printing of TiO2 nanoparticles and its applications in air purification and hydrogen production. A dosage has been obtained that allows ...
Estruch i Tena, Carles (Data de defensa: 2016-07-13)
We propose to develop, build and validate a new Concept of Bridge composed of Inflatable Beams, Lightweight, Modular and Portable (PVH-LMP) for surface transport vehicles, which uses pressurized air-filled ...
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 ...
Pérez Carreras, Adrià (Data de defensa: 2018-12-04)
The study of hydro-mechanical (HM) coupled problems in different areas of civil, environmental or petroleum engineering is common in literature, but the effect of a thermal field by means of the heat ...
Vasconcellos, Ramon Barboza de (Data de defensa: 2021-05-18)
The thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) behaviour of expansive clays has been extensively studied in the last decades due to the potential use of bentonites as components of engineered barrier systems (EBS) ...
Pérez Madrigal, Domingo (Data de defensa: 2018-06-20)
The use of bituminous material milled from the pavement (known as Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement, or RAP) in the manufacture of recycled bituminous mixtures is growing day by day due to the economic and ...
Tapias Camacho, Mauricio Alberto (Data de defensa: 2016-12-21)
This thesis presents a study of the mechanical behaviour of coarse-crushable aggregates, using the discrete element method (DEM). A novel DEM model has been developed taking into account particle breakage, ...
