(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-07-28)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessArchitecture has discussed questions about reality, honesty versus fiction and more recently about contingency, change, open project, or the participation of the inhabitants. All these concerns are collected in documentary ... -
Modelling fragmentation in rockfalls
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-11-04)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessThe fragmentation process in rockfalls is a complex phenomenon that is not well understood and only a few rockfall simulation models consider it explicitly. Fragmentation significantly affects the evaluation of the hazard ... -

(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2019-07-23)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessWith the issue of the rise of anthropogenic CO2, global warming and rise of the primary energy demand, strong measures for the energy transition and the diversification with renewables and existing fossil-based infrastructure ... -
Rare earth elements recovery from E-wastes by solvent extraction and supported liquid membrane processes
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2019-11-28)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessNowadays, rare earth elements (REEs) have gained importance due to their indispensable and critical use in many high-tech industries like hybrid cars, fluorescent lamps, flat screen televisions, mobile phones, disc drives ... -
Experimental study and numerical modelling of soil-roots hydro-mechanical interactions
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2019-12-09)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessThe thesis is aimed at characterising the multi-scale and hydro-mechanical behaviour of lightly compacted silty sand penetrated by a turf-grass (Cynodon Dactilon). The study will allow better assessing the impact of ... -
