(English) In this thesis we study several mathematical objects that are essential to formulate and model physical systems. Applying the tools provided by differential geometry, we develop and analyze ...
Ramón Lumbierres, Daniel Jacobo (Date of defense: 2024-01-23)
(English) Speculation and Postponement are opposite supply chain strategies intended to either advance or postpone the necessary production processes to transform raw materials into finished goods. A ...
Martorell Pol, Pere Antoni (Date of defense: 2024-02-21)
(English) This thesis covers the development of large-scale numerical methods for the simulations of partial differential equations on arbitrarily complex geometries. The target application of this ...
Parada Bustelo, Samuel (Date of defense: 2023-01-27)
(English) This thesis deals with finite element methods to solve compressible flow problems, an important branch of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) whose applications are widespread in many areas of ...
Xenos, Alexandros (Date of defense: 2024-02-02)
(English) The recent technological advances in high-throughput sequencing have yielded vast amounts of large-scale biological omics data that describe different aspects of cellular functioning. These ...
Esnaola Acebes, Mikel (Date of defense: 2023-06-23)
