From gold to carbon: How narratives and discourses define environmental governance in the Brazilian Amazon
El context global actual del canvi climàtic imposa grans reptes per a la gestió dels sistemes socials i ecològics. En aquest context, la regió amazònica al Brasil no només és un ‘punt calent’ per a la conservació de ...
From Gold-Catalyzed Asymmetric or Photoredox-Assisted Cyclizations to Rhodium-Catalyzed C¿H Alkynylations
La catàlisi amb metalls de transició és clau per al descobriment de noves transformacions químiques. En les últimes dues dècades, el camp de la catàlisi homogènia d'or ha estat testimoni d'un creixement exponencial degut ...
From heuristics-based to data-driven audio melody extraction
The identification of the melody from a music recording is a relatively easy task for humans, but very challenging for computational systems. This task is known as "audio melody extraction", more formally defined as the ...
From hypothesis testing of quantum channels to secret sharing
The present thesis has three major thrusts: the first thrust presents a broad investigation of asymptotic binary hypothesis testing, when each hypothesis represents asymptotically many independent instances of a quantum ...
From inocula to biological reactors: molecular characterization of N-cycle bacterial assemblages in a PANAMMOX process
Nowadays, the combination of the autotrophic nitrification together with heterotrophic denitrification is the most common process for N-removal in the WWTPs. However, when the C:N ratio is low, this two-step process does ...
From Lifewriting to postcolonising dreaming narrative: uncanny articulations of race, class and gender in the Indigenous Australian corpus
[eng] This dissertation and its prequel, my minor thesis, have their seeds in a concern with a certain uncanniness embedded in multicultural developments in Western society. In his 1919 essay “The Uncanny”, Freud explains ...
From low carbon buildings to sustainable cities : sustainability transitions in the built environment towards the UN Agenda
This thesis addresses sustainability transitions in the built environment, from buildings to the metropolitan scale, while ranging from low carbon development to the multidimensional challenges currently faced by cities. ...
From macro to micro. A case of a successful implementation of a novel sales forecasting methodology of great practical implications
La presente tesis doctoral ofrece una guía para generar modelos de predicción de ventas para productos en diferentes segmentos de mercado, en distintas culturas, productos que se encuentran en etapas diferentes del ciclo ...
From macro- to nanoscale electrodeposited iron-copper (Fe–Cu) for energy-efficient and sustainable applications
Aquest treball se centra en l'electrodeposició i l'estudi del sistema Fe-Cu, tant sobre substrats llisos per a l’obtenció de pel·lícules continues com en substrats proveïts amb un reticle o màscara, així com la fabricació ...
From market orientation to orientation towards international marjets (OIM) of born global firms: evaluating the impact of OIM on born global firms' performance
No obstante la amplia cantidad de investigaciones dedicadas a la “orientación del mercado”, en las organizaciones empresariales, las referencias de este concepto han sido muy limitadas—específicamente en el contexto de las ...
From metaheuristics to learnheuristics: Applications to logistics, finance, and computing
Un gran nombre de processos de presa de decisions en sectors estratègics com el transport i la producció representen problemes NP-difícils. Sovint, aquests processos es caracteritzen per alts nivells d'incertesa i dinamisme. ...
From micro to macro spatial dynamics in the villaggio delle macine between XIX-XVI century BC
Esta tesis doctoral se ha llevado a cabo con la finalidad de explorar la espacialidad de las evidencias materiales preservadas en la superficie del palafito del Villaggio delle Macine. El yacimiento, fechado entre Bronce ...
From Mock-ups to Artworks: Development and Application of Specific Analytical Methodologies
The main scope of this doctoral thesis was the evaluation of micro- and non-destructive techniques applied to artwork characterization. The need to study capabilities and limitations of these techniques arises from their ...
From molecular force generation to large scale cellular movements
[eng] The propulsion mechanisms that drive the movements of living cells constitute perhaps the most impressive engineering works of nature. Still, it is simply the interaction between molecules which is responsible for ...
From molecular to tissue-specific roles of Fascin during Drosophila tracheal development: A link between the FGF signalling pathway and the actin-cytoskeleton
How a chemoattractant can act on a tissue to induce its migration towards that source? I have tried to answer this question in this research using as migratory tissue model the Drosophila respiratory organ (trachea) during ...
From mononuclear to dinuclear : magnetic properties of transition metals complexes
En les darreres dècades, el món de la tecnologia i el desenvolupament de nous aparells electrònics s'han convertit en vitals per la nostra societat. Considerant la creixent demanda per la interpretació de resultats ...
