The doctoral programme in Mechanical Engineering, Fluids and Aeronautics of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) is the result of collaboration between two departments – Mechanical Engineering and Fluid Mechanics – and the Terrassa School of Industrial, Aerospace and Audiovisual Engineering (ESEIAAT). Doctoral programmes in Mechanical and Fluid Engineering (formerly called Fluids, Turbomachines and Fluid Power) have been taught for over 20 years. Both of the departments involved have extensive experience in third-cycle studies.

The ESEIAAT – a school with a long tradition in the field of industrial engineering that introduced aeronautics studies in the 2004-2005 academic year – has joined these two departments with the aim of offering quality third-cycle studies.

The programme includes several research groups, some of which are members of TECNIO, an initiative of ACC10, the Catalan Government's agency for technological innovation:

  • Centre for Industrial Diagnostics and Fluid Dynamics, CDIF. A research centre with expertise in the dynamic behaviour of hydraulic turbomachines, diagnosis of vibration problems, fluid dynamic studies, and fluid-structure interaction phenomena. The Centre’s main research areas are structural analysis, diagnostics, simulation and cavitation.
  • Biomechanical Engineering (Group and Lab) Lab-BIOMEC. The Biomechanical Engineering Lab (BIOMEC), a research group of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), covers one of the eight research areas of the Biomedical Engineering Research Centre (CREB). The Group focuses its research on developing theoretical, numerical and experimental methods for dynamic simulation of human movement and the design of assistive and monitoring devices for rehabilitation. BIOMEC has a movement analysis laboratory for studying human movement and collaborates with renowned international groups and leading hospitals and technology centres.
  • CATMECH-Centre for Advanced Technologies in Mechanics. CATMech és un centre de recerca especialista en l'àmbit mecànic global que combina el seu ampli coneixement multidisciplinari amb una diversitat d'experts i espais físicament dissenyats per a validar els dissenys desenvolupats. CATMech engloba experts de quatre divisions:
    • CATMECH Materials and Structures DivisionLITEM. The objective of this division is to support the industrial sector in all research, development, and innovation activities that involve the design, analysis, testing, or certification of materials and structures for strength purposes.
    • CATMECH Vibration and Acoustics DivisionLEAM. Division specialized in the development and application of noise and vibration reduction techniques, from both a technical and management perspective.
    • CATMECH Oil-hydraulic and Pneumatic Systems​ Division. LABSON. Division specialized in theoretical and simulation studies complemented by strong experimental support, and IAFARG, a division specialized in industrial and aeronautical applications, focuses on expertise and knowledge in the field of fluid dynamics technologies.
    • CATMECH Industrial Microtechnologies Division. MicroTech LAB. Division dedicated to the application of miniaturization to create new micro- and nanofluidomechanical systems that surpass their larger predecessors in various engineering fields (e.g., biomedicine, energy, automotive, and communications).
  • Fluid Science and Engineering Research Group (GRECEF). The group focuses on studying the fluid mechanics of complex multiscale systems, such as multiphase flows, porous media, hydrogen technologies, magnetohydrodynamic phenomena, flow instabilities, multiphysics turbulence, and biomedical fluids. These systems are found in a wide range of fundamental phenomena and applied problems in engineering, physics, chemistry, and biomedicine, such as advanced energy, propulsion and transport systems, biomedical applications, environmental sciences, and chemical processes.
  • Laboratory of Aeronautical and Industrial Research and Studies (L’AIRE).​ Research group within the aerospace division of the physics department, dedicated to various lines, ranging from the development of computational mechanics tools and biomechanical applications to mechanobiology and space mission design.
  • Turbulence and Aerodynamics in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Research Group, TUAREG. TUAREG is a lab that focuses on developing numerical methods for fluid dynamics studies, mainly in external flow and aerodynamics.
  • Manufacturing Technologies Research Group, TECNOFAB. A UPC group that carries out projects related to product manufacturing processes. The Group’s research focuses on processes, methodologies, and integration of different manufacturing technologies. It is also involved in the study of computer-aided manufacturing systems.
  • Barcelona Fluids & Energy Lab Research Group. iFluids. The lab has extensive experience in the field of hydraulic machinery and, in recent years, has expanded its scope to include other renewable energy sources and more cross-disciplinary projects. The lab is highly active in research, with experience in nationally and European-funded projects, and also in technology transfer, with long-term alliances with large companies and SMEs.
  • Simulation and Movement Analysis Lab (SIMMA Lab). The Simulation and Movement Analysis Lab (SIMMA Lab) focuses its research on computational biomechanics, specifically in two areas: the analysis and prediction of movement through musculoskeletal simulations, in order to investigate human movement and its causes; and the development of telerehabilitation systems for people with mobility issues that integrate biomechanical analysis.
  • Industrial Equipment Design Center (CDEI-UPC). This center specializes in the development of autonomous mobile robotics solutions, particularly for industrial and agricultural applications.
    • Industrial Equipment Design Center - Machine Dynamics (CDEI-DM). The CDEI-DM research group brings together technical staff, researchers from CDEI, and faculty from the DEM at ETSEIB, specializing in the areas of Machine Design and Theory of Machines. Their work ranges from the conception, design, simulation, and calculation of industrial products and equipment, to their prototyping and testing. The group also has active research lines focused on the analysis and control of vibrations in machines and the kinematic and dynamic simulation of complex mechanical systems, such as autonomous mobile platforms and mobile robotics.

The result is a multidisciplinary programme aimed at training students who wish to deepen and develop their research in mechanical engineering, fluids or aeronautics.

The doctoral programme, which is part of the UPC's Industrial Engineering area, organises its academic activity as follows:

  • Basic techno-scientific research focusing on the mathematical formulation, numerical resolution and experimental validation of fluid mechanics and dynamics phenomena.
  • More applied research, grounded in basic research and focusing on the design and optimisation of mechanical systems, turbomachines and fluid power systems, which has generated significant technology transfer.
  • The research carried out enables members to contribute to teaching on bachelor's, master's and doctoral programmes, in industrial engineering subjects related to the areas of basic and applied research that the Group focuses on.

This framework has facilitated feedback between teaching, research and technology transfer, driving continuous improvement in these activities. Graduates have found employment in academia and private enterprise, with opportunities evenly distributed between these two areas. The doctoral programme ensures that all theses defended are of high quality by applying the principles and procedures set out in its specific regulations.

Duration
The maximum period of study for full-time doctoral studies is four years, counted from the date of first enrolment in the relevant programme until the date on which the doctoral thesis is deposited. The academic committee of the doctoral programme may authorise a doctoral candidate to pursue doctoral studies on a part-time basis. In this case, the maximum period of study is seven years from the date of first enrolment in the programme until the date on which the doctoral thesis is deposited. To calculate these periods, the date of deposit is considered to be the date on which the thesis is made publicly available for review.

If a doctoral candidate has a degree of disability equal to or greater than 33%, the maximum period of study is six years for full-time students and nine years for part-time students.

For full-time doctoral candidates, the minimum period of study is two years, counted from the date of an applicant's admission to the programme until the date on which the doctoral thesis is deposited; for part-time doctoral candidates it is four years.

When there are justified grounds for doing so, and the thesis supervisor and academic tutor have given their authorisation, doctoral candidates may request that the academic committee of their doctoral programme exempt them from the requirement to complete this minimum period of study.

Temporary disability leave and leave for the birth of a child, adoption or fostering for the purposes of adoption, temporary foster care, risk during pregnancy or infant feeding, gender violence and any other situation provided for in current regulations do not count towards these periods. Students who find themselves in any of these circumstances must notify the academic committee of the doctoral programme, which must inform the Doctoral School.

Doctoral candidates may request periods of temporary withdrawal from the programme for up to a total of two years. Requests must be justified and addressed to the academic committee responsible for the programme, which will decide whether or not to grant the candidate's request.

Extension of studies
If a doctoral candidate has not applied to deposit their thesis before the expiry of the deadlines specified in the previous section, the academic committee of the doctoral programme may, at the request of the doctoral candidate, authorise an extension of this deadline of one year under the conditions specified for the doctoral programme in question.

Legal framework

Admission criteria and merits assessment

To study on the doctoral programme, students must be admitted by the academic committee.
Students seeking admission should contact the academic committee and follow the application procedure established for the programme.

The academic committee may set additional admission requirements, including the requirement to pass specific tests.

Admission criteria are based on the academic background of applicants. Specifically, their academic record and university of origin will be considered, with input from their possible/planned tutor, in relation to the subject area initially proposed for the thesis. To facilitate this process, potential applicants are recommended to complete a number of questionnaires and exercises so that we can better understand their aptitudes and chances of successfully completing a doctoral degree in the subject area indicated. The languages used are those of the doctoral programme (Spanish, Catalan and English).

Criteria for assessment of merits and weighting:
• Academic record, 30%.
• Personal contact through questionnaires, exercises and telephone interviews, 40%.
• Motivation, 20%.
• Knowledge of languages, 5%.
• Research experience, 5%.

Training complements

The academic committee for the programme may require that doctoral students pass specific bridging courses. In such cases, the committee will keep track of the bridging courses completed and establish appropriate criteria to limit their duration.

Bridging courses will provide research training. In no case may doctoral students be required to enrol for 60 or more ECTS credits. (The academic regulations for UPC doctoral courses state that bridging courses may also provide cross-disciplinary training, but it is anticipated that this point will be changed so that bridging courses are associated only with research training credits, particularly in the case of students admitted to a doctoral programme with a bachelor’s degree that carries 300 ECTS credits.)

Taking into account the doctoral student activity report, the academic committee may propose additional measures to those specified in the regulations, which may result in doctoral students who do not meet the specified requirements being excluded from the programme.

Procedure for determining bridging courses required.
The academic committee will determine what bridging courses students need to take based on their previous training. Students will also receive individual guidance from their thesis supervisor and/or tutor, who will advise them and indicate the subjects that are most appropriate based on their entrance qualifications.

Any bridging courses that students are required to pass will be subjects offered on one of the master's degrees related to the programme:
• Master's degree in Industrial Engineering
• Master’s degree in Aeronautical Engineering
• Master’s degree in Biomedical Engineering
• Master's degree in Automatic Control and Robotics
• Master’s degree in Research on Mechanical Engineering

Procedure for assignment of tutor and thesis director

The academic committee of the doctoral programme assigns a thesis supervisor to each doctoral candidate when they are admitted or enrol for the first time, taking account of the thesis supervision commitment referred to in the admission decision.

The thesis supervisor will ensure that training activities carried out by the doctoral candidate are coherent and suitable, and that the topic of the candidate’s doctoral thesis will have an impact and make a novel contribution to knowledge in the relevant field. The thesis supervisor will also guide the doctoral candidate in planning the thesis and, if necessary, tailoring it to any other projects or activities undertaken. The thesis supervisor will generally be a UPC professor or researcher who holds a doctoral degree and has documented research experience. This includes PhD-holding staff at associated schools (as determined by the Governing Council) and UPC-affiliated research institutes (in accordance with corresponding collaboration and affiliation agreements). When thesis supervisors are UPC staff members, they also act as the doctoral candidate’s tutor.

PhD holders who do not meet these criteria (as a result of their contractual relationship or the nature of the institution to which they are attached) must be approved by the UPC Doctoral School's Standing Committee in order to participate in a doctoral programme as researchers with documented research experience.

The academic committee of the doctoral programme may approve the appointment of a PhD-holding expert who is not a UPC staff member as a candidate’s thesis supervisor. In such cases, the prior authorisation of the UPC Doctoral School's Standing Committee is required. A UPC staff member who holds a doctoral degree and has documented research experience must also be proposed to act as a co-supervisor, or as the doctoral candidate’s tutor if one has not been assigned.

A thesis supervisor may step down from this role if there are justified reasons (recognised as valid by the committee) for doing so. If this occurs, the academic committee of the doctoral programme will assign the doctoral candidate a new thesis supervisor.

Provided there are justified reasons for doing so, and after hearing any relevant input from the doctoral candidate, the academic committee of the doctoral programme may assign a new thesis supervisor at any time during the period of doctoral study.

If there are academic reasons for doing so (an interdisciplinary topic, joint or international programmes, etc.) and the academic committee of the programme gives its approval, an additional thesis supervisor may be assigned. Supervisors and co-supervisors have the same responsibilities and academic recognition.

The maximum number of supervisors of a doctoral thesis is two: a supervisor and a co-supervisor.

For theses carried out under a cotutelle agreement or as part of an Industrial Doctorate, if necessary and if the agreement foresees it this maximum number of supervisors may not apply. This notwithstanding, the maximum number of supervisors belonging to the UPC is two.

More information at the PhD theses section

Permanence

The maximum period of study for full-time doctoral studies is four years, counted from the date of first enrolment in the relevant programme until the date on which the doctoral thesis is deposited. The academic committee of the doctoral programme may authorise a doctoral candidate to pursue doctoral studies on a part-time basis. In this case, the maximum period of study is seven years from the date of first enrolment in the programme until the date on which the doctoral thesis is deposited. To calculate these periods, the date of deposit is considered to be the date on which the thesis is made publicly available for review.

If a doctoral candidate has a degree of disability equal to or greater than 33%, the maximum period of study is six years for full-time students and nine years for part-time students.

If a doctoral candidate has not applied to deposit their thesis before the expiry of the deadlines specified in the previous section, the academic committee of the doctoral programme may, at the request of the doctoral candidate, authorise an extension of this deadline of one year under the conditions specified for the doctoral programme in question.

Dismissal from the doctoral programme
A doctoral candidate may be dismissed from a doctoral programme for the following reasons:

  • The doctoral candidate submitting a justified application to withdraw from the programme.
  • The doctoral candidate not having completed their annual enrolment or applied for a temporary interruption.
  • The doctoral candidate not having formalised annual enrolment on the day after the end of the authorisation to temporarily interrupt or withdraw from the programme.
  • The doctoral candidate receiving a negative reassessment after the deadline set by the academic committee of the doctoral programme to remedy the deficiencies that led to a previous negative assessment.
  • The doctoral candidate having been the subject of disciplinary proceedings leading to their suspension or permanent exclusion from the UPC.

  • The doctoral candidate not having submitted the research plan in the period established in Section 8.2 of these regulations.
  • The maximum period of study for the doctoral degree having ended, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4 of these regulations.

Dismissal from the programme means that the doctoral candidate cannot continue studying at the UPC and that their academic record will be closed. This notwithstanding, they may apply to the academic committee of the programme for readmission, and the committee must reevaluate the candidate in accordance with the criteria established in the regulations.

    Thesis abstract: In this thesis, behavior analyses and performance improvements, are presented for a supersonic vacuum ejector, key component in industrial automatization tasks. To characterize the performance of an EVKAC180 model ejector, a combination of numerical simulations using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) OPENFOAM toolbox and experimental measurements on a dedicated test rig was used. Two operation regimes: a supercritical mode, where the secondary flow chokes, and a subcritical mode, where it remains subsonic. And breakpoints were identified. Simulations reproduced this dual behavior with good agreement with experimental data, though some deviations were found at high and low flow rates. In addition to the density-based implicit solver (HiSA), an ex plicit solver (rhoCentralFoam) was also used, confirming consistent results across the flow rates. The polytropic evolution, another key ejector metric, was found to be initially adiabatic, progressively transitioning to isothermal. A one-dimensional model was developed to complement CFD simulations and estimate ejector performance from geometry and operating conditions. The model computes the entrainment ratio and secondary pressures under both critical and subcritical regimes. Its results were validated against experimental and CFD data, showing accurate predictions and low deviations (below 4 %) in critical regimes. It provides a faster, low-cost alternative for early design stages. The ejector performance was improved by analyzing the influence of design parameters through single- and multi-factor analyses. The mixing chamber length proved to be the most impactful factor, leading to a 10 % individual improvement. The fractional factorial multi-factor analysis confirmed this trend and produced the final improved geometry design, referred to as the EDGE ejector, achieving a slightly higher overall performance gain of 10.4 %. The interaction effects among parameters were found to be limited yet important overall. Finally, an empirical model tool for predicting the Total Evacuation Time (TET) was proposed, combining the characteristic and polytropic curves. Several experimental test rigs were used to refine the polynomial fits of the characteristic curves, exhibiting deviations in TET prediction as low as 1.4 %. The validated tool was then applied to the EDGE ejector, achieving a 4 % reduction in TET (a gain of 8 s) compared to the original model, fulfilling the objective of this research. Moreover, the tools developed in this thesis reduce the need for extensive experimental data and enable reliable forecasting for new ejector designs.

Quality

The Validation, Monitoring, Modification and Accreditation Framework (VSMA Framework) for official degrees ties the quality assurance processes (validation, monitoring, modification and accreditation) carried out over the lifetime of a course to two objectives—the goal of establishing coherent links between these processes, and that of achieving greater efficiency in their management—all with the overarching aim of improving programmes.
