El objetivo de la tesis fue estudiar el comportamiento de una grava gruesa, de tamaño máximo de 40 mm, en condiciones triaxiales y de succión controlada. En base al análisis los resultados obtenidos y conceptos tomados, ...
This thesis focuses on the experimental and numerical study of the desiccation processes of low-plasticity clayey soils that usually result in shrinkage and often in cracking. A comprehensive state of the art that defines ...
In the present work a probabilistic methodology to estimate the seismic risk of buildings in urban areas is proposed. The seismic risk obtained through this methodology is expressed in terms of annual probabilities of ...
Geological formations containing sulphates are commonly associated with the development of severe expansions when they are involved in tunnel excavation. The intensity of the observed expansive behaviour in these materials ...
Una base de datos de 33 km de registros de túnel de EPB en la zona de Barcelona se ha examinado en detalle desde el punto de vista de recambio de herramientas de corte y rendimiento de la excavación mecanizada. La base de ...
This thesis is devoted to present some novel techniques in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). SHM is a developing field that tries to monitor structures to make sure that they remain in their desired condition to avoid ...
A number of mid-height steel buildings have been erected recently in Bogotá. Their seismic risk might be high, given the new microzonation of Bogotá and the lack of comprehensive previous studies; noticeably, the response ...
In this study it was assessed the seismic behavior of framed buildings with composite structure of steel and reinforced concrete (RC) in a specific configuration formed with lower levels with RC (primary structure) and ...
