Development of a cardiac model for the study of sudden cardiac death in infants
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2021-09-15)
Master thesis
Open AccessThe Sudden Unexpected Death of an Infant (SUDI) is the unforeseen death of a newborn less than 12 months old. A mutation was discovered in a number of cases of SUDI that affects the protein troponin (Tn) present in ... -
Restricted Boltzmann Machine learning through RAPID equations
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2021-09-10)
Master thesis
Open AccessThis work consists on the theoretical study of Restricted Bolzmann Machines, neural networks that can learn the empirical distribution of different datasets. Particularly, we have studied RAPID, an alternative model that ... -

Restricted access - author's decisionThe coronavirus global pandemic, first identified in December 2019 caused by SARS-CoV-2 is one of the deadliest pandemics in history. Throughout the pandemic the virus has evolvedin the form of new variants. During the ... -
Rheological studies in micro-fluids with oscillation flow
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2021-07-09)
Master thesis
Open AccessFront micro-rheology is a new method for analyzing fluid samples and obtaining their viscous behavior. This technique stands out from other rheometers because of its small size, the ability to measure very small samples ... -
Optical properties of BaTiO3: determination of the absorption coefficient and its correlation with the material photo-response
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-11-26)
Master thesis
12 months embargoThe photocontrol of ferroelectric properties has recently attracted notable attention as an effective alternative methodology to electric polarization switching. Specifically, it has been reported that macroscopic polarization, ... -
Helium nucleation in liquid metals
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-11-24)
Master thesis
12 months embargoObtaining a successful nuclear fusion reaction is a really hard task. One of the factors that we must consider is the high temperatures that the blanket that wraps up the plasma can achieve. Due to this issue, the metals ... -
Disorder and localization in ultracold quantum gases
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-10-22)
Master thesis
Open AccessIn this work we study Anderson localization of quantum states in different kind of disordered media. First we apply the recently-developed theory of \textit{landscape localization} pioneered by Filoche and Mayboroda, giving ... -
Biochemical model for the amoeboid motion of Dictyostelium discoideum cells
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-09-07)
Master thesis
Open AccessChemotaxis can be understood as the directed cell migration towards a nonisotropic chemoattractant gradient present in the surrounding environment. This response to external chemical stimuli is employed by eukaryotic cells ... -
