    Climate networks constructed by using information-theoretic measures and ordinal time-series analysis 

    Deza, Juan Ignacio (Date of defense: 2015-02-26)

    This Thesis is devoted to the construction of global climate networks (CNs) built from time series -surface air temperature anomalies (SAT)- using nonlinear analysis. Several information theory measures have been used ...

    de la tesi <br/>En aquest treball es presenta un estudi de l'3He a temperatura zero combinant les tècniques de Monte Carlo variacional (VMC) i la difusiva (DMC) amb nodes fixos (FN) i relaxació dels nodes (RN). <br/>L'estudi ...

    Monte Carlo simulations of the population of single and binary white dwarfs of our galaxy 

    Camacho Díaz, Judit (Date of defense: 2014-06-19)

    Since white dwarfs are the final stage of the evolution of the vast majority of stars, they carry important information about the chemical evolution of our Galaxy, its star formation rate, and its structure and dynamics. ...

    Non-linear fluid dynamics in oscillatory cylindrical cavities 

    Panadès i Guinart, Carles (Date of defense: 2013-06-28)

    Even though the transition to turbulence has been studied for over a century, its complete comprehension still remains unclear even for the simplest flows and continues to be a daunting challenge for the scientific community. ...

    Time-varying networks approach to social dynamics : from individual to collective behavior 

    Starnini, Michele (Date of defense: 2014-10-24)

    The data revolution experienced by social science has revealed complex patterns of interactions in human dynamics, such as the heterogeneity and burstiness of social contacts. The recently uncovered temporal dimension of ...

    Transient and stochastic dynamics in cellular processes 

    Rué Queralt, Pau (Date of defense: 2013-07-25)

    This Thesis studies different cellular and cell population processes driven by non-linear and stochastic dynamics. The problems addressed here gravitate around the concepts of transient dynamics and relaxation from a ...

    Variational mechanics and stochastic methods applied to structural design 

    Andujar Moreno, Rabindranath (Date of defense: 2015-02-03)

    This thesis explores a very well understood area of physics: computational structural dynamics. The aim is to stretch its boundaries by merging it with another very well established discipline such as structural design and ...
