En estructures pretesades sotmeses a ambients corrosius, s'està estudiant la possibilitat de substituir els tendons d’acer per tendons que no pateixin els efectes de la corrosió. En aquest sentit, els materials compostos ...
Las membranas son estructuras (sin rigidez a flexión) que conforman una superficie en el espacio, con espesor mínimo. Se aproximan a una superficie geométrica y trabajan sólo mediante esfuerzos de membrana (de tracción) y ...
La propuesta de una vejiga artificial es un obstáculo a trasponer. El cáncer de vejiga está entre los casos más frecuentes de enfermedades oncológicas en Estados Unidos y Europa. Ese cáncer es considerado un problema médico ...
This work deals with the development and application of the Finite Point Method (FPM) to compressible aerodynamics problems. The research focuses mainly on investigating the capabilities of the meshless technique to address ...
In the assessment of seismic risk, hazard is one of its main components, given that, from a probabilistic perspective, provides the annual rates of exceedance of the intensities of strong motion in the site or region of ...
Esta tesis surge de la necesidad de establecer un método racional y práctico para identificar, a través del cambio de las frecuencias naturales , el daño en estructuras de hormigón armado. Por lo que se desarrolla un nuevo ...
Cementitious materials such as mortar or concrete are brittle and have an inherent weakness in resisting tensile stresses. The addition of discontinuous fibers to such matrices leads to a dramatic improvement in their ...
Cell migration is a fundamental element in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Alteration of its regulatory mechanisms leads to loss of adhesion and increased motility, critical steps in the initial ...
The aim of this work is to present a new procedure for modelling industrial processes that involve granular material flows, using a numerical model based on the Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM). The numerical results ...
The aim of this work is to develop, implement and validate a technique for information transfer, in the domain decomposition methods, able to address coupled thermomechanical problems, with mixed displacement-pressure ...
