• Fluvial Dynamics and Hydrological Variability in the Chiriquí Viejo River Basin, Panama: An Assessment of Hydro-Social Sustainability through Advanced Hydrometric Indexes 

  De Gracia, Hermes; Aguilar Porro, Cristina; Serrano, Victoria (MDPI, 2024)

  The objective of this study was to conduct a detailed analysis of the available flow series in the Chiriquí Viejo River basin in Panama. This paper examines the patterns of variation within these series and calculates ...

• Manufacture of thermoplastic molds by fused filament fabrication 3D printing for rapid prototyping of polyurethane foam molded products 

  Guerrero-Vacas, Guillermo; Gómez-Castillo, Jaime; Rodríguez-Alabanda, O. (Emerald, 2024)

  Purpose: Polyurethane (PUR) foam parts are traditionally manufactured using metallic molds, an unsuitable approach for prototyping purposes. Thus, rapid tooling of disposable molds using fused filament fabrication (FFF) ...

• Stochastic Flow Analysis for Optimization of the Operationality in Run-of-River Hydroelectric Plants in Mountain Areas 

  Gómez Beas, Raquel; Contreras Arribas, Eva; Polo, María José; Aguilar Porro, Cristina (MDPI, 2024)

  The highly temporal variability of the hydrological response in Mediterranean areas affects the operation of hydropower systems, especially in run-of-river (RoR) plants located in mountainous areas. Here, the water flow ...

• Control multivariable por desacoplo 

  Morilla, Fernando; Garrido, J.; Vázquez, Francisco (Elsevier, 2013)

  La interacción entre variables es una característica inherente de los procesos multivariables, que dificulta su operación y el diseño de sus sistemas de control. Bajo el paradigma de Control por desacoplo se agrupan un ...

• Analysis of adaptive individual pitch control schemes for blade fatigue Load reduction on a 15 MW wind turbine 

  Lara, Manuel; Mulders, Sebastian Paul; Van Wingerden, Jan Willem; Vázquez, Francisco; Garrido, J. (MDPI, 2024)

  Individual pitch control (IPC) is a method to mitigate periodic blade loads in wind turbines, and it is typically implemented using the multi-blade coordinate (MBC) transform, which converts the blade load measurements ...
