This doctoral thesis addresses topology optimization problems at a single scale. Based on this purpose, a new topology optimization approach is developed in order to improve existing and widespread techniques in the research ...

In this report, a structural analysis of a rocket is performed. Its aim it to base the analysis on finite elements, where transient states and vibrations will be taken into account, in order to obtain nodal displacements ...

Acoustic metamaterials are artificially designed and manufactured structures with dy-namical properties that are not typically found in naturally-occurring materials. The design of acoustic metamaterials is considered to ...

Estudio de elementos de continuidad C0 y C1 Formulación de algoritmos e implementación en ordenador (matlab). Ejemplos de test, validación y aplicaciones del ámbito aeroespacial. 

The present dissertation aims at addressing multiscale topology optimization problems. For this purpose, the concept of topology derivative in conjunction with the computational homogenization method is considered. In ...

The notion of metamaterials as artificially engineered structures designed to obtain specific material properties, typically unachievable in naturally occurring materials, has captured the attention of the scientific and ...

Arid, rocky, cold and ’apparently’ lifeless, Mars has captured humanity’s attention for the past few decades. "It’s such a fundamental question. ’Are we alone?’ " Hubbard said. Scientists are deeply interested in the Red ...

We are living the dawn of a new era in space exploration. Space agencies and recently created private companies are retaking interest in sending humans to explore the outside of our home planet, beyond low earth orbit. ...
