Towards a gauge polyvalent numerical relativity code: numerical methods, boundary conditions and di erent formulations
La present tesi doctoral versa sobre la resolucio numèrica de les equacions d'Einstein de la Teoria de la Relativitat. Es presenta: una nova familia de mètodes computacionals amb variació total acotada i d'implementació ...
Towards a high-performance computing finite element simulation framework for virtual testing of composite structures
his doctoral thesis aims at developing and implementing a computational framework for performing virtual testing of composite structures using a High-Performance Computing (HPC) environment. In this sense, this thesis ...
Towards a legal and ethical framework for personal care robots. Analysis of person carrier, physical assistant and mobile servant robots
Podria donar-se el cas que qui creï un robot que interactua amb humans desconegui quins són els requeriments legals que ha de seguir per a complir amb la llei, ja sigui perquè no existeixi una llei específica per a dit ...
Towards a linearly organized embedding space of biological networks
(English) The recent technological advances in high-throughput sequencing have yielded vast amounts of large-scale biological omics data that describe different aspects of cellular functioning. These omics data are typically ...
Towards a model for terminology planning
This research is based on the hypothesis that all terminological activities are founded upon some fundamental principles which, at the same time, are manifested in sociolinguistic context-bound variations or parameters. ...
Towards a more sustainable management of temporary rivers: tools for improving their conservation, biomonitoring and social recognition
Temporary rivers (TRs) are dynamic systems that typically shift between flowing, disconnected-pools and dry phases, and represent nearly 50% of the current global river network. Despite TRs support several unique and endemic ...
Towards a multimodal knowledge base for Indian art music: a case study with melodic intonation
This thesis is a result of our research efforts in building a multi-modal knowledgebase for the specific case of Carnatic music. Besides making use of metadata and symbolic notations, we process natural language text and ...
Towards a multiresolution model on GPU
El objetivo principal de esta tesis es presentar un conjunto de técnicas que se han desarrollado para mejorar la visualización en tiempo real de mallas poligonales. Se describen varias soluciones a la gestión del nivel de ...
Towards a new dimension in analytical TEM: EELS, Tomography and the Spectrum Volume
The main goal of this thesis is to combine electron tomography and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) in the TEM, in order to obtain chemical and electronic information in 3D in the nanoscale. Tomography in the ...
Towards a New Materialist Ontology of Clothing
De fet, estem envoltats de molta més roba que persones. I de les persones que ens envolten, veiem més roba que pell. Per què estem tan convençuts que el que veiem són persones? Per tal de re-equilibrar les concepcions de ...
Towards a non-perturbative description of cosmological inflation
[eng] From the observation of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMBR) we know that the universe is isotropic on scales larger than ∼ 75 Megaparsec to at least one part in 100000. The leading paradigm for explaining ...
Towards a personalised virtual library: Indications from navigational and personal information behaviour of e-learning students
To better understand information behaviour and how to make information delivery systems more usable, this dissertation endeavours to investigate how people search, manage and use information resources. More precisely, this ...
Towards a Pluriverse of Systemic Alternatives: Decolonial Feminist Perspectives
Davant l’actual crisi de la civilització occidental, les lluites per la defensa de la vida i els territoris han propiciat una quantitat cada cop més gran d’alternatives a les diferents formes i estructures d’opressió (com ...
Towards a predictive interface for the specification of intervention tasks in underwater robotics
Robots play a critical role in our everyday lives, performing tasks as diverse as maintenance, surveillance, exploration in harsh environments, or search and rescue operations. Concerning the different environments where ...
Towards a Responsible Translation of Pidgin English in Postcolonial Literature: The Case of Ken Saro-Wiwa’s Sozaboy
[eng] The overall aim of this dissertation is to explore strategies for the translation of postcolonial texts into a “third” language, that is, a language other than the colonized vernacular and the European language of ...
Towards a statistical physics of major evolutionary transitions: information, thermodynamics and ecology at the mathematical foundations of evolution
This thesis aims at establishing the basis for a statistical physics theory of major evolutionary transitions. Its structure is based on three major pillars: nonequilibrium thermodynamics and information theory, stochastic ...
Towards a theory of translation pedagogy based on computer-assisted translation tools for Catalan and English non literary texts
This dissertation aims to propose an approach to translation pedagogy along two main guidelines: a) evaluating the traditional approaches to translation pedagogy with a view to designing a more ecclectic approach b) ...
