According to Timoshenko’s beam theory, nodal rotations in beam-like structures are produced by bending and shear effects. On the one hand, bending rotations can be easily calculated by the Euler-Bernoulli stiffness matrix ...
Quintero Perez, Guillermo (Fecha de defensa: 2019-07-08)
For the production of representative noise maps, a large amount of information is necessary, which includes, among others, on-site measurements of environmental noise. Thus, for noise maps based on measurements, mobile ...

The objective of the doctoral thesis is to perform the numerical approximation of the transient convection-diffusion-reaction (CDR) vector equation in 2D with high order finite elements, quadratic, cubic and fourth order, ...
Ferrer Ramos, Núria (Fecha de defensa: 2019-07-18)
One of the main drivers of the current global change is the climate change characterized by increased number and increased length of drought periods. Another relevant driver that will imply greater pressure on natural ...
Vieira, Mylene de Melo (Fecha de defensa: 2018-10-19)
High performance steel fibre reinforced cementitious composites (HPSFRCCs) show enhanced structural performance and durability. The improved properties favour its use in agressive conditions (such as marine environment) ...
Obiso, Vincenzo (Fecha de defensa: 2018-03-07)
In this thesis an assessment of the parameterization of the Aerosol-Radiation Interaction (ARI) in online integrated meteorology-chemistry models has been conducted. The model estimates of ARI radiative effects are still ...
