    Análisis estadístico y comportamiento fractal de las réplicas sísmicas del Sur de California 

    Monterrubio Velasco, Marisol (Date of defense: 2013-03-15)

    Mediante el análisis estadístico y utilizando diversas técnicas fractales en esta tesis se estudia el comportamiento temporal y espacial de tres series de réplicas sísmicas ocurridas en el Sur de California, que tuvieron ...

    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 ...

    Collective motion and collective decision-making in animal groups : from scholling fish to swarming robots 

    Múgica Gallart, Julia (Date of defense: 2023-06-07)

    (English) Collective behavior in animals is ubiquitous in nature. It emerges from the self-organization of interacting individuals within a group. What makes collective behavior so interesting is that the behavior of the ...

    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. ...

    Spatiotemporal coordination of collective activity in neuronal ensembles 

    Barardi, Alessandro (Date of defense: 2016-06-03)

    The brain is a complex multiscale dynamical system made of neurons, connected with each other by synapses. Neurons are multidimensional nonlinear systems able to exhibit dynamical activities at different temporal and spatial ...

    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 ...
