(2015-12-11)
This thesis focuses on EX from DP, a construction in which a PP or clausal modifier
appears separate from the head noun it modifies, typically in sentence-final position.This construction incarnates one of the long-standing ...
Development and application of environmental integrated assessment modelling towards sustainability
(2016-06-03)
Los Modelos Ambientales de Evaluación Integrada (MEIs) constituyen una potente herramienta que integra diferentes disciplinas y dimensiones para informar en la toma de decisiones hacia la sostenibilidad. En esta tesis ...
Proposal and validation of methodologies for the categorisation of continuous variables in the development of prediction models
(2015-10-20)
Prediction models are currently relevant in a number of fieelds such as physics, meteorology, finance or medicine, among others. In the medical field, prediction models are gaining importance as a support for decision-making ...
Pseudospectral methods and numerical continuation for the analysis os structured population models.
(2016-06-07)
En esta tesis se presentan nuevos métodos numéricos para el análisis de modelos en dinámica de poblaciones. Los métodos aproximan equilibrios y bifurcaciones en una clase de modelos conocidos como modelos de poblaciones ...
