📗 Libro en inglés NANOPARTICLES AND ALLOYS FOR THERAPEUTICAL AND STRUCTURAL BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS

This thesis addresses 2 challenges in biomaterials research: 1) diffusion phenomena in Ti-Al-Nb alloys as materials for structural applications; and 2) the development of magnetic hyperthermia therapies against cancer more efficient and less invasive. Both challenges share a characteristic physical ground, which is the guideline of this work: they are based on transfer phenomena, mass transfer in the first case, and heat transfer in the second.
