On the consistency of hysteresis models
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2014-01-30)
Tesi
Accés obertHysteresis is a nonlinear behavior encountered in a wide variety of processes including biology, optics, electronics, ferroelectricity, magnetism, mechanics, structures, among other areas. One of the main features of ... -
Engineering patterns of wrinkles and bubbles in supported graphene through modeling and simulation
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2015-06-10)
Tesi
Accés obertGraphene deposited on a substrate often exhibits out-of-plane deformations with different features and origins. Networks of localized wrinkles have been observed in graphene synthesized through CVD, as a result of compressive ... -
Machine learning in multiscale modeling and simulations of molecular systems
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2015-05-08)
Tesi
Accés obertCollective variables (CVs) are low-dimensional representations of the state of a complex system, which help us rationalize molecular conformations and sample free energy landscapes with molecular dynamics simulations. ... -
Estimación bayesiana de cópulas extremales en procesos de Poisson
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2015-02-04)
Tesi
Accés obertThe estimation of occurrence probabilities of extremal quantities is essential in the study of hazards associated with natural phenomena. The extremal quantities of interest usually correspond to phenomena characterized ... -
Decomposition techniques for computational limit analysis
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2014-10-27)
Tesi
Accés obertLimit analysis is relevant in many practical engineering areas such as the design of mechanical structure or the analysis of soil mechanics. The theory of limit analysis assumes a rigid, perfectly-plastic material to model ... -
The inverse problem on finite networks
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2014-06-19)
Tesi
Accés obertThe aim of this thesis is to contribute to the field of discrete boundary value problems on finite networks. Boundary value problems have been considered both on the continuum and on the discrete fields. Despite working ... -
Validation and generation of curved meshes for high-order unstructured methods
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2014-07-25)
Tesi
Accés obertIn this thesis, a new framework to validate and generate curved high-order meshes for complex models is proposed. The main application of the proposed framework is to generate curved meshes that are suitable for finite ... -
Continuous-discontinuous modelling for quasi-brittle failure: propagating cracks in a regularised bulk
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2013-12-05)
Tesi
Accés obertA new strategy to describe failure of quasi-brittle materials -concrete, for example- is presented. Traditionally, numerical simulation of quasi-brittle failure has been tackled from two different points of view: damage ... -
Efficient models for building acoustics : combining deterministic and statistical methods
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2013-11-15)
Tesi
Accés obertModelling vibroacoustic problems in the field of building design is a challenging problem due to the large size of the domains and the wide frequency range required by regulations. Standard numerical techniques, for instance ... -
On the structure of graphs without short cycles
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2012-12-20)
Tesi
Accés obertThe objective of this thesis is to study cages, constructions and properties of such families of graphs. For this, the study of graphs without short cycles plays a fundamental role in order to develop some knowledge on ... -
Shape dynamics and lipid hydrodynamics of bilayer membranes: modeling, simulation and experiments
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2013-04-09)
Tesi
Accés obertBiological membranes are continuously brought out of equilibrium, as they shape organelles, package and transport cargo, or respond to external actions. The dynamics of lipid membranes are very complex due to the tight ... -
Design and validation of a structural health monitoring system for aeronautical structures.
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2013-01-18)
Tesi
Accés obertStructural Health Monitoring (SHM) is an area where the main objective is the verification of the state or the health of the structures in order to ensure proper performance and maintenance cost savings using a sensor ...
