Elaboració i validació d'un qüestionari per a avaluar les habilitats per a la vida
Introduction: According to the World Health Organization – WHO – life skills "are abilities to adopt an adaptive and positive behavior that allows individuals to effectively address the demands and challenges of everyday ...
Materiales compuestos a partir de filamentos naturales y matriz plástica biobasada, y sus posibles aplicaciones tecnológicas
Nowadays the problem of climate change on planet Earth has aggravated, it has become extremely important to find solutions that considerably reduce or even eliminate its causes. Among the set of solutions that have been ...
Density functional theory to the rescue of transition-metal chemistry
Density functional theory (DFT) was postulated almost 60 years ago and equipped chemists with a powerful framework to simulate, in silico, the behavior of chemical systems. Despite its widespread utility, DFT methods have ...
Modelling of electric vehicle user profiles for flexibility management and charging infrastructure planning
The transition to electric mobility is facing multiple challenges, usually associated with the roll-out of the charging infrastructure. On one hand, cities must develop a charging infrastructure that meets the user needs ...
Gold complexes based on (N,C) and (N,C,C) chelating ligands: ligand design and reactivity studies in cross-coupling catalysis
Homogeneous reactions catalyzed by gold have mainly been developed in the past two decades, stemming from the proneness of Au(I) and Au(III) complexes to coordinate and activate carbon-carbon multiple bonds towards a ...
Analysis of creep crack growth in adhesively bonded joints under mode I loading
Adhesive bonds could replace more traditional mechanical joints, making structures lighter and smoother. Stresses are distributed over a larger area, and dissimilar materials can be bonded, accommodating differences in ...
Desenvolupament del procés d’obtenció d’un concentrat proteic d’alt valor nutritiu a partir de sang procedent d’escorxadors
Global forecasts of an impending shortage of animal protein for human consumption have led to the search for new sources of dietary protein, either from alternative plant, fungal or insect sources, or from by-products of ...
The perceived value, satisfaction and loyalty of the demand for cultural heritage destinations
This doctoral thesis focuses on the studies of tourist destinations with heritage characteristics to investigate the perspectives of the perceived value of the tourist demand and to explore the direct relationships that ...
Predicción probabilística de estados glucémicos para pacientes con diabetes tipo 1 mediante el análisis de datos composicionales
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that affects a large number of people worldwide, making it a global pandemic. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) accounts for approximately 10 % of all cases. It is characterized by autoimmune ...
Data-driven models for type 1 diabetes using generative deep learning
Modeling biological systems has always been challenging given the complexity of the processes involved in them. Experts have been employing physiological models to approximate the dynamics of biological systems; however, ...
Multiscalar strategies for the characterization of engineered P450 enzymes
Enzymes are a type of proteins that help chemical reactions happen faster in living organisms. Scientists have been able to modify these enzymes using a technique called protein engineering, which allowed to increase the ...
El nivell i la variació del risc cardiovascular en la prevenció primària de la demència
Dementia causes progressive cognitive impairment and inability to lead an independent life. Currently, there is no curative treatment for it, and thus primary prevention is essential. Age is the main risk factor for ...
Aplicación del control interno en los procesos administrativos y financieros: una comparativa entre el sector público y el privado
The purpose of this research is projected to promote strategies to achieve efficient and effective management in the public or private organizational context. For this purpose and from the field of scientific research, ...

This doctoral thesis studies the manuscript 10260 of the Spanish National Library called: Corónica del Rey Luis de Françia, onzeno deste nombre, hecha y compuesta por un caballero borgoñón llamado Felipo de Comines, Señor ...
Del transmedia storytelling al transmedia learning. Reflexions entorn l'ús de les narratives transmèdia com a estratègia didàctica
This doctoral thesis is the result of the conceptual and practical analysis of the uses of transmedia narratives in education. Storytelling, narration or the art of storytelling is a key element of human communication. In ...
Brown macroalgae (Phaeophyceae) as an alternative and sustainable source of novel antimicrobial compounds to improve food safety
Macroalgae have been recognized as an interesting source of compounds with multiple applications in different fields due to their various bioactivities since current trends are moving towards the use of alternative compounds ...
Revisiting STEAM in the interplay between extrinsic and intrinsic goals of education: Implications for teaching and teacher training
Considering non-consensual understandings, we aim to revisit STEAM exploring its distinctiveness as an educational approach embedded within the broader discourses of education and tensions between the extrinsic and intrinsic ...
