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 transport by a fluid ...
The contemporary networks of towns and cities continue to emancipate themselves by embracing ever larger territories while shaping their interstices in heterogeneous mosaics of settlements and open spaces of variable ...
This thesis considers the fruit of the tara tree (Caesalpinia spinosa) as a sustainable source for tanning agents and proposes alternatives to the commercial mineral salts and vegetable extracts to comply with an increasing ...
This thesis deals with active sensing and its use in real exploration tasks under both scene ambiguities and measurement uncertainties. While object modeling is the implicit objective of most of active sensing algorithms, ...
The interaction builds humanity. It is the most human of us; Our social life is based on it. Interacting leads us to design objects that facilitate communication, understanding with other humans and understanding our ...
Se constata como principal conclusión general, el proceso de densificación demográfica del planeta a lo largo de la historia con la progresiva trituración interviaria tanto urbana como rural y la evolución paralela de los ...
El peso creciente que la actividad del sector servicios está adquiriendo dentro de la economía ha repercutido en un mayor interés por conocer las organizaciones suministradoras de servicios.<br/><br/>Uno de los temas ...
Higher education, universities and especially schools of architecture, have an important role and a specific potential in societies' transition towards sustainable development (SD). New forms of teaching and learning, ...
La historia de la conciencia del cuerpo en la arquitectura y las artes, desde los asclepeiones griegos hasta los hospitales modernos, fue consolidada por la investigación anatómica y desarrollada con mayor precisión en ...
La present tesi doctoral tracta de l’estudi de la tecnologia de membranes des d’un punt de vista aplicat: com és el cas de la nanofiltració (NF) pel tractament d’aigua potable i de l’ús d’un bioreactor de membranes (MBR) ...
The offshore wind sector has grown significantly during the last decades driven by the increasing demand for clean energy and to reach defined energy targets based on renewable energies. As the wind speeds tend to be faster ...
(English) Optical communication systems are widely adopted and responsible for transporting data traffic from access to metro to core networks supporting society’s information and communication functions. As the traffic ...
Transactional Memory (TM) gives software developers the opportunity to write concurrent programs more easily compared to any previous programming paradigms and gives a performance comparable to lock-based synchronization ...
Nowadays, every company seeks to optimize its Supply Chain (SC) in response to competitive pressures or to acquire advantage of new flexibility in the restrictions on world trade. The process systems engineering research ...
Transactional Memory (TM) aims to make shared memory parallel programming easier by abstracting away the complexity of managing shared data. The programmer defines sections of code, called transactions, which the TM system ...
(English) The deployment of 5G antenna infrastructure and the mandatory adoption of anti-collision radars for automotive cars will require large amount of antennas operating in the millimeter and sub-millimeter wavelength. ...
There is ample evidence to show that in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sector, implementation is underway of the Building Information Modelling (BIM) methodology, which is changing the way architectural ...
Any current building is the result of a complex process that involved multiple stakeholders. Owners, architects, engineers, consultants, employees, administration functionary and many others have ...
This work has been developed in a line of research related whit the Intermediate Band (IB) concept, which explores overcoming the photovoltaic efficiency limits established for solar cells. The IB concept implies two issues: ...
The use of plant protection products (PPP) has become an essential tool in agriculture to achieve the minimum requirements of quality and quantity of food demanded by consumers. Moreover, due to its repeated use throughout ...
