    • Estudi de l'evolució del foc en un habitatge, comparant un cas real amb una simulació mitjançant models de dinàmica de fluïds (CFD) 

      Caimel Monfulleda, Eduard (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2012-04-16)
      Master thesis
      Open Access
      La present Tesina, descriu l’evolució d’un incendi real, ocorregut a la comarca del Maresme durant l’any 2010 i en simula l’evolució per mitja del càlcul computacional amb el Simulador de Dinàmica d’incendis (FDS) versió ...

    • External temperature effects on the hysteresis of NiTi wires in dampers for stay-cables 

      Torra Ferré, Vicenç; Carreras, Guillem; Casciati, Sara; Auguet Sangrá, Carlota E. (Centre Internacional de Mètodes Numèrics en Enginyeria (CIMNE), 2014)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      The use of NiTi wires, one of the Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) materials that permits efficient damping in stayed cables for bridges, requires an appropriate behavior when exposed to the external temperature effects. The ...

    • Ginzburg-Landau modelling of precursor nanoscale textures in ferroelastic materials 

      Planes, Antoni; Lloveras Muntané, Pol Marcel; Castán, Teresa; Saxena, Avadh; Porta, Marcel (2012-11)
      Article
      Restricted access - publisher's policy
      A Ginzburg–Landau free-energy model is proposed to study spatially inhomogeneous states that often occur as precursors of ferroelastic/martensitic transitions. Disorder is included in the harmonic coefficient of the ...

    • Insights into thermonuclear supernovae from the incomplete Si-burning process 

      Bravo Guil, Eduardo (2013-01-21)
      Article
      Open Access
      Type Ia supernova (SNIa) explosions synthesize a few tenths to several tenths of a solar mass, whose composition is the result of incomplete silicon burning that reaches peak temperatures of 4 GK to 5 GK. The elemental ...

    • Microplane model M7for fiber reinforced concrete 

      Caner, Ferhun Cem; Bažant, Zdeněk Pavel; Wendner, Roman (2013-06-01)
      Article
      Restricted access - publisher's policy
      Model M7f is a new model for fiber reinforced concretes under static and dynamic loads, which features two kinds of improvement over the earlier versions: (1) It is built on M7, a new, greatly improved, microplane model ...

    • Thermodynamic analysis of a DNA hairpin using optical tweezers 

      Rico Pastó, Marc (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2014-11-17)
      Master thesis
      Open Access
      [ANGLÈS] Since their invention 30 years ago, optical traps have emerged as a powerful tool in physics and biology. Capabilities of optical traps have rapidly evolved to study molecular and atomic systems. In this work we ...
