• Iterative Method for Tuning Multiloop PID Controllers Based on Single Loop Robustness Specifications in the Frequency Domain 

  Garrido Jurado, Juan; Ruz Ruiz, Mario; Morilla, Fernando; Vázquez Serrano, Francisco J. (MDPI, 2021)

  Multiloop proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers are widely used for controlling multivariable processes due to their understandability, simplicity and other practical advantages. The main difficulty of the ...

• Analysis of the Influence of Terrain Orientation on the Design of PV Facilities with Single-Axis Trackers 

  Gómez Uceda, Francisco J.; Moreno-García, Isabel; Jiménez-Martínez, José M.; López Luque, Rafael; Fernández-Ahumada, Luis Manuel (MDPI, 2020)

  This paper investigates how to optimally orient the photovoltaic solar trackers of an axis parallel to the terrain, applying the sky model of Hay–Davies. This problem has been widely studied. However, the number of studies ...

• Photocatalytic Recycled Mortars: Circular Economy as a Solution for Decontamination 

  Barbudo Muñoz, M. Auxiliadora; Lozano Lunar, Angélica; López Uceda, Antonio; Pérez Galvín, Adela; Ayuso Muñoz, Jesús (MDPI, 2020)

  The circular economy is an economic model of production and consumption that involves reusing, repairing, refurbishing, and recycling materials after their service life. The use of waste as secondary raw materials is one ...

• Superhydrophobic Cerium-Based Coatings on Al-Mg Alloys and Aluminized Steel 

  Guerrero-Vaca, G.; Rodríguez-Valverde, Miguel Ángel; Castilla-Montilla, Pedro; Alguacil-Salamanca, Francisco; Rodríguez-Alabanda, O.; Romero, Pablo E.; Molero, Esther; Montes Ruiz-Cabello, F. Javier (MDPI, 2019)

  Aluminum-magnesium (Al-Mg) alloy and aluminum-coated steel (aluminized steel) are typically used for the manufacturing of baking trays and molds. For these applications, these materials must be modified to develop release ...

• Use of Data Mining Techniques for the Prediction of Surface Roughness of Printed Parts in Polylactic Acid (PLA) by Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM): A Practical Application in Frame Glasses Manufacturing 

  Molero, Esther; Fernández, Juan Jesús; Rodríguez-Alabanda, O.; Guerrero-Vaca, G.; Romero, Pablo E. (MDPI, 2020)

  In the present work, ten data mining algorithms have been used to generate models capable of predicting the surface roughness of parts printed on polylactic acid (PLA) by using fused deposition modeling (FDM). The models ...
