Development of new computational methods for fluid-structure interaction analysis of multi-fractured media
The objective of this thesis is the derivation and implementation of a robust Finite Element formulation for the solution of solid-pore fluid coupled problems in multi-fractured porous media. A coupled displacement-pore ...
Development of New Fluorophore-Tethered ortho-Carborane Systems: An Approach for Unique Photophysics and Applications
El treball que es presenta en aquest manuscrit segueix línies de recerca iniciades al Grup de Catàlisi i Síntesi Inorgànica (LMI) de l’Institut de Ciències de Materials de Barcelona (ICMAB-CSIC), basades en la síntesi, ...
Development of new GPR methodologies for soil and cement concrete pavement assessment
The study of surface geology by means of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) can provide information about abrupt lateral changes in the terrain. The location ofthese changes is very useful in seismic nanozonation studies, since ...
Development of New Hybrid Materials Based on Graphene Functionalised with Molecular Complexes. Evaluation of Properties and Catalytic Applications
En la presente tesis doctoral se ha descrito la síntesis de nuevos materiales híbridos basados en complejos organometálicos anclados mediante interacciones no covalentes sobre materiales derivados del grafeno. Los nuevos ...
Development of new immunostimulant and antimicrobial protein-based molecules from a One Health perspective
El descobriment dels antibiòtics és considerat una de les principals fites de la medicina moderna. No obstant això, l’abús i l’ús excessiu d’antibiòtics ha desencadenat una ràpida expansió de la resistència antimicrobiana ...
Development of new lightweight green composites reinforced with nonwoven structures of flax fibres
Composite materials offer good mechanical performance with lower weight than classical materials, what has encouraged their use in many industry applications. Moreover, the rising awareness about environmental problems has ...
Development of new materials and techniques for luminescence nanothermometry and photothermal conversion
Hem estudiat la dependència amb la temperatura de la luminescència generada per nanopartícules dielèctriques dopades amb ions lantànids que poden ser utilitzades en nanotermometria luminescent. Hem analitzat nous materials ...
Development of new materials for hydrogen generation and wastewater treatment by photcatalysis
Aquesta tesi consisteix en el desenvolupament de nous materials per a la generació d'hidrogen i el tractament d'aigües residuals. Per tant, en aquesta tesi s'han estudiat principalment catalitzadors basats en pal•ladi, ...
Development of new methodologies for the clinical, objective and automated evaluation of visual function based on the analysis of ocular movements : application in visual health
Healthy visual function not only relies on good visual acuity. Other systems such as accommodation or binocular vision need to be effective. Binocular vision is the ability of the visual system to coordinate and integrate ...
Development of New Models for Vision-Based Human Activity Recognition
Els mètodes de reconeixement d'accions permeten als sistemes intel·ligents reconèixer accions humanes en vídeos de la vida quotidiana. No obstant, molts mètodes de reconeixement d'accions donen taxes notables d’error de ...
Development of New Multicomponent Processes based on Unexplored Chemistry of Isocyanides: Access to Heterocyclic Scaffolds and Applications
1. It was observed that the interaction of imines and isocyanides in the presence of a Lewis acid can lead to a variety of scaffolds including α-aminoamides, α-aminoamidines, indoles and diiminoazetidines. The reaction ...
Development of new products from aquaculture fish species
Europeans are regular consumers of fish and aquaculture products. Therefore, five species of potential aquaculture rearing named: Meagre, Pikeperch, Grey Mullet, Greater Amberjack and Wreckfish were selected for new product ...
Development of new reusable materials based on Ru complexes with catalytic activity for olefin epoxidation and nitrile hydration
In this thesis we present the synthesis and characterization of different types of ruthenium complexes containing N-donor ligands together with dmso, Cl and H2O ligands, along with their complete characterization through ...
Development of new solvent-free microextraction techniques for the analysis of volatile organic compounds: application to the use of breath analysis as a toxicological tool for explosure analysis
Hippocrates predicted many years ago that breath could tell something related with our health. On his treaties, he indicated that when the body starts moving after sleeping, and breathe with more frequency, something hot ...
Development of new strategies for the synthesis of radiotracers labeled with short-lived isotopes: application to 11C and 13N
S'ha desenvolupat una nova estratègia per la síntesi ràpida i eficient de L-[metil-11C]metionina basada en el captive solvent method. La reacció de L-homocisteína (dissolució bàsica en aigua/etanol 1:1) amb [11C]CH3I en ...
Development of new strategies for the treatment of emerging opportunistic fungal infections
Aspergillus fumigatus és el fong filamentós més freqüent i, encara que normalment és sensible als antifúngics, recentment s’han detectat aïllats resistents. Neocosmospora solani, Lomentospora prolificans, Scopulariopsis ...
Development of new strategies to generate conditionally-active proteins for precision therapies
L'ús de proteïnes com a anticossos i de les citocines com a teràpia ha anat augmentant de manera constant en les últimes tres dècades. Malgrat l'èxit de les bioteràpies en el tractament de diverses malalties, aquests sovint ...
Development of new therapeutic strategies for Spinal Muscular Atrophy
L'Atròfia Muscular Espinal (AME) és una malaltia neurodegenerativa greu i la primera causa genètica de mort infantil. S'origina per la pèrdua o mutació del gen Survival Motor Neuron 1 (SMN1) que causa una deficiència de ...
