Yago Llamas, Daniel (Date of defense: 2022-01-24)
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 ...
Padilla Magaña, Jesús Fernando (Date of defense: 2022-11-18)
(English) The Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) is a measurement tool to assess post-stroke upper extremities motor function. However, ARAT scoring can be subjective and limited only to determining performance quality. ...
Sohrabi, Shahin (Date of defense: 2022-03-11)
Active noise cancellation is a unique approach that helps passive noise control in reducing sound levels at low frequencies; nevertheless, successful use of active noise cancellation necessitates performing numerous and ...
Monshi Tousi, Navid (Date of defense: 2023-06-16)
(English) The PhD focuses on the study of the flow around an airfoil at different Angles of Attack (AoA) with and without the implementation of Active Flow Control (AFC), while maintaining the Reynolds number constant at ...
Liravi, Hassan (Date of defense: 2022-07-29)
This thesis is concerned with the development of efficient and practical numerical methodologies to deal with longitudinally invariant soil-structure interaction problems in elastodynamics. All the approaches appearing in ...
Algar Espejo, Antonio (Date of defense: 2021-02-08)
The internal cushioning systems of hydraulic linear actuators, of special interest in mobile machinery, pursue to avoid mechanical shocks at their end of stroke. The design where the piston, with perimeter grooves, regulates ...
Ghangale, Dhananjay (Date of defense: 2019-07-19)
This thesis presents a methodology for assessing induced ground-borne vibration due to Underground railway infrastructures in the context of an urban environment. The methodology is based on a comprehensive numerical ...
Madadi, Hojjat (Date of defense: 2014-01-17)
Recently, the emergence of lab-on-a-chip devices has seen in a variety of applications especially in clinical analys is and diagnostics. ln particular the lack of suitable microdevices for separation of plasma from whole ...
Mendizábal Dinucci, Virginia Dolores (Date of defense: 2023-03-23)
(English) Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM) is a strengthening method that has been increasing its importance versus Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) due the lower cost and lower toxicity of its materials. The ...
Bossio, Matias (Date of defense: 2021-06-01)
In food and pharmacological industries, reducing the production time and improving the machine flexibility to be adapted to new products is a constant necessity. This generate changes on the initial working conditions for ...
Ripoll Masferrer, Lluís (Date of defense: 2006-01-11)
Los volantes de inercia superan a las baterías eléctricas por su capacidad de absorber y ceder energía en poco tiempo y, si se fabrican con materiales compuestos, también por su reducido peso. La tesis presenta un estudio ...
Lores Garcia, Eduard (Date of defense: 2017-12-22)
Machines and mechanisms can usually exhibit a vibratory behavior during operation since they are formed by deformable solids of non-negligible mass and non-rigid joints. This oscillatory behavior can be shown for transient ...
Zayas Figueras, Enrique Ernesto (Date of defense: 2001-11-26)
Los mecanismos leva-palpador en los que el cierre del par superior se realiza por la configuración geométrica de la leva y del palpador son denominados desmodrómicos o levas con cierre geométrico. Estos mecanismos son poco ...
Quintero Riaza, Héctor Fabio (Date of defense: 2006-06-28)
