As a renewable alternative to petroleum-based materials, wood or plant-based materials offer a greater prospect in the transition towards sustainable replacements. Native to wood, cellulose nanofibers (CNF) form the major ...
Medical imaging and 3D volumetric visualization are a standard routine for patient diagnosis and treatment. Multimodal visualization plays an important role in medical diagnosis and treatment, because it makes findings ...
Human exploitation of river ecosystems, together with the increasing pressure that represents climate change, is posing rivers worldwide at risk. In rivers, microorganisms are ecologically very important. Most of ...
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 ...
The escalating conflicts and competition for freshwater resources are widely acknowledged. The demand for water is on the rise due to rapid population growth and socioeconomic development, while climate change is disrupting ...
In order to reduce mismatches between real and expected consumption, this thesis explores the use of PCA (Principal Component Analysis) as a modelling tool for buildings. PCA is a statistical technique that allows complex ...
ABSRACT<br/><br/>This thesis focuses on the monitoring, fault detection and diagnosis of Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP), which are important fields of research for a wide range of engineering disciplines. <br/><br/>The ...
La present tesi doctoral es proposa analitzar els efectes que tingué la fiscalitat en la societat d’una ciutat de la Catalunya baixmedieval, en especial de cara a la formació d’unes autèntiques elits locals. El cas d’estudi ...
Aquesta tesi doctoral té com a objectiu principal analitzar la situació dels museus a Catalunya en els primers anys de la dictadura franquista. Per tal d’entendre millor aquest període és de gran interès conèixer les ...
This doctoral dissertation studies different festivities and ceremonies that took place in Girona between 1500 and 1650, as well as the music that could have accompanied them at that time. The dissertation consists of two ...
Bio and nano technologies are absent or incipient in papermaking industry and, concretely, in recycling and high-yield pulps sectors. In this sense, the present Thesis uses cellulose nanofibers (CNF), both in bulk and on ...
Intermediality is a cultural reality: in the multimodal and multimedia era, hybridization between media is a common practice, which we find in almost any communicative product and which requires specific knowledge to be ...
La tesi doctoral és un estudi de l'evolució del paisatge de les closes de l'Alt Empordà entre els anys 1957 i 2001. Dins el marc teòric s'hi explora el concepte de paisatge cultural agrari tradicional, es fa una introducció ...
Although there are therapies for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) and epidermal growth factor-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (EGFRm NSCLC), these two subtypes of cancer are very aggressive, and most patients develop ...
Some of the most powerful methods for synthesizing complex organic molecules with high levels of chemo-, diastereo- and enantioselectivity rely on metal carbene chemistry. These compounds are versatile reaction intermediates ...
This doctoral thesis studies the involvement of challenging unsaturated substrates in the transition-metal catalysed [2+2+2] cycloaddition reaction, as well as new catalytic systems for the reaction. First, Morita-Baylis-Hillman ...
En aquesta tesi s'han dut a terme dos tipus d'estudis diferents. L'objectiu del primer era la preservació del semen de porcí a 15ºC i el del segon eren els co-cultius homòlegs de cèl·lules epitelials de l'oviducte i ...
The catalytic asymmetric oxidation of alkenes has special interest from both industrial and academic points of view. For this reason, catalysts able to perform these reactions in a faster and more effective manner have ...
El processament d'imatges mèdiques és una important àrea de recerca. El desenvolupament de noves tècniques que assisteixin i millorin la interpretació visual de les imatges de manera ràpida i precisa és fonamental en entorns ...
Tradicionalment, la reproducció del mon real se'ns ha mostrat a traves d'imatges planes. Aquestes imatges se solien materialitzar mitjançant pintures sobre tela o be amb dibuixos. Avui, per sort, encara podem veure pintures ...
