Emotions in Engineering Education

Roland John Tormey

Contrary to common stereotypes, engineering education and practice are not purely rational activities. Emotions, just like cognition, play important roles in teaching, learning, and professional practice. Today, there is a nascent body of research explorin ...

Three-dimensional fluid-driven frictional ruptures: theory and applications

Alexis Alejandro Sáez Uribe

Fluid-driven frictional ruptures are important in a broad range of subsurface engineering technologies and natural earthquake-related phenomena. Some examples of subsurface operations where borehole fluid injections can induce frictional slip are deep geot ...

Extending Business Process Models with Appreciation

Alain Wegmann, Gil Regev

We use homeostasis, the maintenance of steady states in an organism, to explain some of the decisions made by participants in a business process. We use Vickers’ Appreciative System to model the homeostatic states with Harel’s statecharts. We take the exam ...

Thermo-mechanical performance of energy pile groups

Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

Employing geostructures as structural supports and geomaterials as reservoirs for the extraction and storage of heat represent effective means to meet human activity needs since ancient times. This doctoral thesis focuses on the thermo-mechanical behaviour ...

From Goal-Achievement to the Maintenance of Relationships: Extending Business Process Models with Homeostasis and Appreciation

Gil Regev

We use homeostasis, the maintenance of steady states in an organism, to explain some of the decisions made by participants in a business process. We use Vickers’s Appreciative System to model the homeostatic states with Harel’s statecharts. We take the exa ...

Personal Learning with Social Media : Reputation, Privacy and Identity Perspectives

Na Li

Social media platforms are increasingly used in recent years to support learning activities, especially for the construction of activity- and learner-centric personal learning environments (PLEs). This thesis investigates the solutions to four essential de ...

Lie Group and Lie Algebra Variational Integrators for Flexible Beam and Plate in R3

François Marie Alain Demoures

The purpose of this thesis is to develop variational integrators synchronous or asynchronous, which can be used as tools to study complex structures composed of plates and beams subjected to large deformations and stress. We consider the geometrically exac ...

Nouvelles approches synthétiques de prodrogues de cyclosporine A et d'analogues antiviraux

Jérémy Bérard

The cyclosporins comprise a family of cyclic 11-peptides containing seven N-methylated, hydrophobic amino acids. Cyclosporine A (CsA) representing the major member of this family is widely used as immunosuppressive agent in organ transplantations. The biol ...
