    Light enhancements in nano-structured solar cells 

    Pastorelli, Francesco (Date of defense: 2013-12-09)

    In this century some of our main issues are energy shortage and pollution. This work will briefly describe these problems, proposing a plan of action combining energy saving and different sustainable energy sources. Within ...

    Microstructural characterization & viscoelastic properties of AlZnMg & AlCuMg alloys 

    Rojas Gregorio, José Ignacio (Date of defense: 2012-01-11)

    The comprehension of the viscoelastic behaviour of metals is of high interest as these materials are subjected to dynamic loads in most of their structural applications, and also because it enables a deeper understanding ...

    Modelling And Analysis Of Crack Turning On Aeronautical Structures 

    Llopart Prieto, Llorenç (Date of defense: 2007-09-21)

    La motivació de la tesis deriva en el interès de la indústria aeronàutica a explotar, per mitjà d'un disseny adaptat, la utilització del gir d'esquerda per protegir els reforços situats davant una esquerda que s'està ...

    Monte Carlo simulations of the population of single and binary white dwarfs of our galaxy 

    Camacho Díaz, Judit (Date of defense: 2014-06-19)

    Since white dwarfs are the final stage of the evolution of the vast majority of stars, they carry important information about the chemical evolution of our Galaxy, its star formation rate, and its structure and dynamics. ...

    A multisymplectic approach to gravitational theories 

    Gaset Rifà, Jordi (Date of defense: 2018-07-25)

    The theories of gravity are one of the most important topics in theoretical physics and mathematical physics nowadays. The classical formulation of gravity uses the Hilbert-Einstein Lagrangian, which is a singular ...

    Nonlinear one-zone models of stellar pulsations
