Fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) has proven to be a suitable material for statically indeterminate elements. The FRC column-supported flat slabs with partial or even total substitution of reinforcing steel bars constructed ...
Carlesso, Débora Martinello (Data de defensa: 2020-03-06)
Fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) is recognized as suitable material for structural applications. The number of national codes that have approved it is an evidence. Structures where FRC is generally used can be subjected to ...

This work discloses new insights into the formation and evolution of Mg -carbonates as well as carbonation processes of Mg-rich oxides and silicates with the aim of providing a safe and permanent anthropogenic CO2 storage, ...
Poliotti, Mauro (Data de defensa: 2020-11-04)
Modern guidelines for design and assessment of reinforced concrete structures under seismic and other extreme loads require nonlinear analysis. The complex structural response can be obtained by means of three-dimensional ...
Cornejo Velázquez, Alejandro (Data de defensa: 2020-12-21)
It is well known that in civil engineering structures are designed so that they remain,whenever possible, in an elastic regime and with their mechanical properties intact. The truth isthat in reality there are uncertainties ...

Deep geological disposal remains the preferred option at present for the management of long-living and heat-emitting radioactive waste, which consists of confining the waste during a very long period (several hundreds of ...
Labarre, Aurélie (Data de defensa: 2020-11-26)
In the vast network of the ocean, microbes are abundant and unevenly distributed. As an important microbial component, the protists play a key role in global biogeochemical cycles and contribute to the recycling of nutrients ...

A test site for CO2 geological storage is situated in Hontomín (Burgos, northern Spain) with a reservoir rock that is mainly composed of limestone. The reservoir rock is a deep saline aquifer, which contains a NaCl- and ...
Shen, Yanfei (Data de defensa: 2019-12-02)
In AISC 360-16, the Direct Analysis Method (DM) has been set as the primary method for the stability design of frames. DM, considering initial global sway imperfection, is essentially Geometrically Non-linear Analysis (GNA) ...
García Alcaraz, María del Mar (Data de defensa: 2016-03-04)
This thesis promotes an efficient use of shallow geothermal energy by means of an integrated management system to organize its exploitation. Shallow geothermal energy is a renewable resource based on thermal energy exchange ...

In the packaging industry, a wide range of powders and bulk solids are handled in bagging equipment using different bulk feeding techniques. Quality of the packaging is critically affected by feeder performance, which is ...
Castro, Lucas Vassalle de (Data de defensa: 2021-07-05)
This PhD thesis aimed at evaluating the performance of high rate algal ponds (HRAP) to post-treat the anaerobic effluent from an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor fed with sewage. The work analysed the system ...
Borchini, Luca (Data de defensa: 2020-12-17)
Nowadays, the main computational bottleneck in computer-assisted industrial design procedures is the necessity of testing multiple parameter settings for the same problem. Material properties, boundary conditions or ...
Pallarès López, Elena (Data de defensa: 2016-07-25)
It is widely known that wind and wave predictions in the nearshore are less precise for semi enclosed domains than in the open ocean. The Catalan coast is a clear example of this situation, with a wave climate controlled ...
Alacid Fernández, Elisabet (Data de defensa: 2017-07-18)
Parasitism is a widespread interaction that has evolved practically in all branches of the tree of life. It has historically been neglected in studies of marine microbial systems, limiting our understanding of marine food ...
Ribera Pi, Judit (Data de defensa: 2019-07-23)
The increasing water demand coupled to the depletion of natural water sources has raised the need to investigate and develop in wastewater treatment and reuse. Even more, the application of circular economy principies to ...
Tarragó Munté, Daniel (Data de defensa: 2021-06-03)
The starting point of this thesis is the failure of part of a quay wall under construction. The quay was divided in two phases, failure affected Phase 1 only. The failure and all the relevant associated information on quay ...
