Estrategias mecánicas de las plantas arborescentes: enseñanzas estructurales de los árboles
(Universidad de Tarapacá, 2017-09)
Los árboles son los seres vivos más grandes que jamás han poblado la Tierra, pudiendo tener más de cien metros de altura, masas de varios miles de toneladas y alcanzar edades de varios miles de años. Para conseguirlo, entre ...
Analysis of the dressing process using stationary dressing tools
(Elsevier, 2017)
Grinding process is a very important process in machining industry to manufacture high quality part. The correct preparation of grinding wheel involves dressing process taking importance to optimize grinding process. Due ...
CAM development for additive manufacturing in turbo-machinery components
(Elsevier, 2017)
Additive Manufacturing (AM) has become a constantly growing up technology due to the suitability and flexibility in terms of geometry and material diversity. It is applied in high value damaged part repairs from aeronautical, ...
Virtual Sensor for Kinematic Estimation of Flexible Links in Parallel Robots
(MDPI, 2017-09)
The control of flexible link parallel manipulators is still an open area of research, endpoint trajectory tracking being one of the main challenges in this type of robot. The flexibility and deformations of the limbs make ...
Intelligent nozzle design for the Laser Metal Deposition process in the Industry 4.0
(Elsevier, 2017)
Laser Metal Deposition (LMD) is an AM (Additive Manufacturing) process that enables to build 3D geometries or enhance the surface properties of the base material by the generation of a coating. With the aim of integrating ...
Five MegawattWind Turbine Power Output Improvements by Passive Flow Control Devices
(MDPI, 2017-06)
The effects of two types of flow control devices, vortex generators (VGs) and Gurney flaps (GFs), on the power output performance of a multi-megawatt horizontal axis wind turbine is presented. To that end, an improved blade ...
Performance of Gradient-Based Solutions versus Genetic Algorithms in the Correlation of Thermal Mathematical Models of Spacecrafts
(Hindawi, 2017)
The correlation of the thermalmathematical models (TMMs) of spacecrafts with the results of the thermal test is a demanding task in terms of time and effort. Theoretically, it can be automatized by means of optimization ...
Microtab design and implementation on a 5MW wind turbine
(MDPI, 2017-05-24)
Microtabs (MT) consist of a small tab placed on the airfoil surface close to the trailing edge and perpendicular to the surface. A study to find the optimal position to improve airfoil aerodynamic performance is presented. ...
Mechatronics of a ball screw drive using a N degrees of freedom dynamic model
(Springer, 2017-10)
High performance position control in machine tools can only be achieved modelling the dynamic behavior of the mechatronic system composed by the motor, transmission and control during the design stage. In this work, a ...
Control Distribution of Partially Decoupled Multi-level Manipulators with 5 DOFs
(Cambridge University Press, 2017-02-01)
Multi-level manipulators are those mechanisms in which two or more levels,
that de ne the main chain of the manipulator, are joined in parallel to
each other. Besides, each level is linked to the base in parallel by ...
